[Algorithm] Incorrect behavior of is_sorted_until (predicate version)
by Michel Morin 12 Jul '12

12 Jul '12

Hi Marshall, Suppose we have an array int ar[5] = {1, 2, 2, 2, 2}; Then, `is_sorted_until(ar, ar + 5, std::less<int>())` should return `ar`'s end pointer. But it gives `ar + 2`. To fix this, change line 49 of is_sorted.hpp if ( !p ( *first, *next )) return next; to if ( p ( *next, *first )) return next; After fixing it, don't forget to change the predicate used in non-predicate version of is_sorted_until ;) Spotted by "clang-cxx11-r159746" test runner. Regards, Michel

[lockfree] include into 1.51?
by Tim Blechmann 11 Jul '12

11 Jul '12

hi all, especially release managers, boost.lockfree is now in trunk and it passes the tests on most supported platforms. atm it includes a private copy of boost.atomic, which will be removed once boost.atomic is merged (helge wanted to do it quite soon) ... there are still some test failures on win32, but i think i found the reason and fixed the tests (btw it is rather time consuming to work with the test farm as the win32 tests are only run about once a week). iac, the deadline for new libraries in 1.51 is today, but from my side, boost.lockfree could be included as it is now. however if the release managers consider it as too late, i'm don't have a problem with waiting for another release cycle ... thoughts? tim

Who runs the Cray test runner?
by Paul A. Bristow 11 Jul '12

11 Jul '12

I note that the Cray tests are all failing. Concerned that this is possibly (though I think not entirely from look of error messages) due to changes I have made to Boost.Test recently, I'd like to contact whoever manages the Sandia Cray test runner. Does anyone know who to contact? Thanks Paul --- Paul A. Bristow, Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal LA8 8AB UK +44 1539 561830 07714330204 pbristow(a)hetp.u-net.com

[container] Forward declarations for scoped allocator traits
by Daniel James 11 Jul '12

11 Jul '12

Hi Ion, I was just looking at the scoped allocator support. A container currently needs to include all of scoped_allocator.hpp just to customize the appropriate traits which seems a bit much. Could you declare (not define) constructible_with_allocator_suffix and constructible_with_allocator_prefix in a separate header so that they can be specialised without including all the other things? I've also attached a patch that fixes a couple of typos that I noticed. Daniel

[config] Add BOOST_NO_RANGE_BASED_FOR macro?
by Beman Dawes 10 Jul '12

10 Jul '12

I'm about to add Boost.Filesystem support for C ++11 range-based for statements, and would like to include direct test cases for compilers that have the feature. Is it OK to add a BOOST_NO_RANGE_BASED_FOR macro to trunk? --Beman

[xpressive] Compiler error on VC7.1
by Robert Dailey 10 Jul '12

10 Jul '12

Hi, I'm using Boost 1.49 Xpressive on VC7.1. When I compile the following code, I get compiler errors (these do not appear on VC9): sregex const& rex = bos >> _serverName >> !as_xpr("_GWDomino") >> ".diagnostics" >> *(as_xpr(".base")|".renamed"); 'rex' is really a function parameter in my real world use case. I'm passing the entire static regex into a function that takes a 'sregex const&'. I get the compiler error below. Anyone know why this is happening? C:\Code\work\cmake-decomp\build-vc7\third_party\boost\1.49.0-stlport-5.2.1\include\boost\proto\traits.hpp(691) : error C2664: 'boost::proto::exprns_::expr<Tag,Args,Arity>::expr(const boost::proto::exprns_::expr<Tag,Args,Arity> &)' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'boost::proto::detail::as_expr<T,Generator,WantsBasicExpr>::result_type' to 'const boost::proto::exprns_::expr<Tag,Args,Arity> &' with [ Tag=boost::proto::tagns_::tag::terminal, Args=boost::proto::argsns_::term<boost::proto::detail::as_expr<const char [10],boost::proto::detail::base_generator<boost::proto::default_generator>::type,false>::value_type>, Arity=0 ] and [ T=const char [10], Generator=boost::proto::detail::base_generator<boost::proto::default_generator>::type, WantsBasicExpr=false ] and [ Tag=boost::proto::tagns_::tag::terminal, Args=boost::proto::argsns_::term<boost::proto::detail::as_expr<const char [10],boost::proto::detail::base_generator<boost::proto::default_generator>::type,false>::value_type>, Arity=0 ] Reason: cannot convert from 'boost::proto::detail::as_expr<T,Generator,WantsBasicExpr>::result_type' to 'const boost::proto::exprns_::expr<Tag,Args,Arity>' with [ T=const char [10], Generator=boost::proto::detail::base_generator<boost::proto::default_generator>::type, WantsBasicExpr=false ] and [ Tag=boost::proto::tagns_::tag::terminal, Args=boost::proto::argsns_::term<boost::proto::detail::as_expr<const char [10],boost::proto::detail::base_generator<boost::proto::default_generator>::type,false>::value_type>, Arity=0 ] No constructor could take the source type, or constructor overload resolution was ambiguous \Code\work\cmake-decomp\server\exchange\tools\uploadlog\uploader.cpp(1372) : see reference to function template instantiation 'const boost::add_const<T>::type boost::proto::functional::as_expr<>::operator ()<char,10>(const char (&)[10]) const' being compiled with [ T=boost::proto::detail::as_expr<const char [10],boost::proto::detail::base_generator<boost::proto::default_generator>::type,false>::result_type ]

Hi Marshall, I have raised 3 tickets 7111,7112,7113 for some issues in date_time. As the owner of date_time is not active and my earlier bug in date_time was verified by you. So Please verify and commit these bugs also. Thanks. -- Regards, Gaurav

[chrono] time_point.hpp depends on Boost.System; should it?
by Krzysztof Czainski 09 Jul '12

09 Jul '12

Hello, I want to create my own clock class, and in it among other things I would like to typedef a time_point<...>. struct MyClock { typedef int64_t rep; typedef boost::milli period; typedef boost::chrono::duration<rep,period> duration; typedef date_chrono::time_point<SystemClock,duration> time_point; static bool const is_monotonic = false; static time_point now(); }; Now, for this to work I obviously need to #include <boost/chrono/time_point.hpp>. Including it causes a dependency on Boost.System, making me have to link with it. But since I don't use any clocks provided by Boost.Chrono, I think the dependency on Boost.System is unnecessary. In fact, I was able to get rid of the dependency, and everything seems to work. I commented out 1 line from <boost/chrono/time_point.hpp>: //#include <boost/chrono/detail/system.hpp> Could this #include be removed from time_point.hpp, or is it needed for something I am not using ATM? Regards, Kris
