Possible bug in Unit Testing routines
by Thomas Thorp 18 Dec '07

18 Dec '07

In trying to track down a memory leak with my code (using Deleaker, VS2005, Windows XP, boost 1.34.1 from boost consulting), I'm getting the folowing message as being the source of a memory leak. This partiular list, shows the line where the memory was allocated. My question is, is this a valid error, or one I should just ignore?

Boost for new compiler
by Eames, Andrew 18 Dec '07

18 Dec '07

Hi, I apologize if this is a FAQ - I couldn't find much on other compilers I am interested in using boost with a compiler for a DSP - The compiler is somewhat archaic - I'm not using RTTI or exceptions (the compiler supports them but it is currently broken) - the STL has old iostreams and no doubt I will find some other musty corners. I don't have any illusions about getting the whole of boost to compile but I'm sure there are some large pieces that will work OK. I have no problem doing the port myself. I have successfully got shared_ptr and shared_array to work but I needed to make 3 fairly trivial changes to the code to get it to compile. Are boosters interested in folding these changes back into the main source in the interests of making boost more portable or am I on my own here since I am working with an unsupported compiler? I can post the problems I ran into if anyone is interested. Andrew

[review] Formal Fast-Track review of the Boost.Functional/Factory library begins today
by John Torjo 18 Dec '07

18 Dec '07

Hi all, Today starts the formal Fast-Track review of the Boost.Functional/Factory library. *Description* Factories are callback mechanisms for constructors, so we provide two function objects, boost::value_factory and boost::factory, that encasulate object construction through direct application of the constructor or operator new, respectively. These templates make other facilities that operate on function objects (such as standard algorithms, Boost.Bind, Boost.Function, or Fusion functional adapters) applicable to constructors. *Author* Tobias Schwinger *Download* Get it from here: http://www.boost-consulting.com/vault/index.php?action=downloadfile&filenam… Read documentation online here: http://torjo.com/tobias/ What to include in Review Comments ================================== Your comments may be brief or lengthy, but basically the Review Manager needs your evaluation of the library. If you identify problems along the way, please note if they are minor, serious, or showstoppers. Here are some questions you might want to answer in your review: * What is your evaluation of the design? * What is your evaluation of the implementation? * What is your evaluation of the documentation? * What is your evaluation of the potential usefulness of the library? * Did you try to use the library? With what compiler? Did you have any problems? * How much effort did you put into your evaluation? A glance? A quick reading? In-depth study? * Are you knowledgeable about the problem domain? And finally, every review should answer this question: * Do you think the library should be accepted as a Boost library? Be sure to say this explicitly so that your other comments don't obscure your overall opinion. Best, John Torjo - Review Manager - -- http://John.Torjo.com -- C++ expert ... call me only if you want things done right

[Boost-users] Run-time flavors of Boost (aka lib suffix / runtime-options)
by Benoit Sigoure 18 Dec '07

18 Dec '07

Hello list, [I already sent this question to Boost-users but nobody replied there, so I guess that you people might have a better idea] Boost libraries often ship compiled in various different "flavors" (compiled with different runtime-options). First off, is there an official place where this is documented? I didn't find any, besides the header `boost/config/auto_link.hpp'. Based on this header, I tried to document the suffix used by Boost libraries as follows: > A suffix is one or more of the following letters: sgdpn (in that > order). s = static runtime, d = debug build, g = debug/diagnostic > runtime, p = STLPort > build, n = (unsure) STLPort build without iostreams from STLPort > (it looks > like `n' must always be used along with `p'). Additionally, it can > start > with `mt-' to indicate for multi-thread builds. Is this accurate? What is a `static runtime'? My guess is that `-s' is Windows-specific, because on Windows it's common to see both shared libraries and static libraries using the same naming scheme `libfoo.lib' (because in the shared library case, `libfoo.lib' is not a directly shared library but rather an import library), can anyone confirm that? This entails that for most UNIX-like OSes, the `-s' variant doesn't exist, it's the `libfoo.a' static archive that is used instead, is that correct? Cheers, -- Benoit Sigoure aka Tsuna EPITA Research and Development Laboratory

[serialization] serialization used in multiple DLL problems
by Felipe Magno de Almeida 17 Dec '07

17 Dec '07

Hi, I was able to make this work on serialization after some minor modifications: PS: pseudo-code DLL1: header.h BOOST_IS_ABSTRACT(base); class base { virtual ~base() {} // serialization }; source.cpp class derived : base { // serialization }; BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT(derived); void serialize(oarchive& ar) { boost::shared_ptr<derived> p(new derived); ar << p; } DLL2: std::stringstream stm; { oarchive oar(stm); serialize(oar); } { iarchive iar(stm); boost::shared_ptr<base> p; iar >> p; // deserializing a derived class defined in DLL1 in DLL2 } I had to compile serialization as a lib. And making tk_map and kt_map global objects (not sure if this is necessary though), removing the assertion about multiple inserts in static insert function of both [kt][tk]_map's and commenting line 315 of basic_oarchive: //if((cobject_info_set.size() > original_count)){ +{ I don't know the internals of serialization enough to say this is anything near correct. And I'll still need to test more, which I will do, since I need this functionality very much. Regards, -- Felipe Magno de Almeida

Beta Distribution for boost::random
by Jeremy Bruestle 17 Dec '07

17 Dec '07

Hello, I have implemented support for the beta distribution for boost::random. I was wondering who I should send it to for examination and possible acceptance into boost? The method is based on the paper "Generating Beta Variates with Nonintegral Shape Parameters" ( http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=359460.359482) by R. C. H. Cheng, which was the best performing fully general purpose method I could find. It uses a reject method whose success rate varies based on the parameters, but whose worst case expected number of samples is 4. If anyone knows of a better method please let me know. -Jeremy Bruestle

Where RTTI is useful, but not essential, I'd personally rather not remove it entirely. Instead, the code could respond to a macro (BOOST_NO_RTTI perhaps) and avoid usage when present. But the default would be to user RTTI on the theory it is usually available. --Beman Beman Dawes: > Where RTTI is useful, but not essential, I'd personally rather not > remove it entirely.

In non-essential scenarios, often the proper macro to test is BOOST_NO_TYPEID: http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ ticket/1104 since typeid(T) does not require the R in RTTI and may be supported even when RTTI is off (under MSVC for example).

It might be possible to do this using a custom factory along the lines of: template<class T> struct sp_factory { typedef boost::shared_ptr<T const> handle_type; handle_type insert( T const & t ) { return handle_type( new T( t ) ); } void erase( handle_type ) {} T const & entry( handle_type p ) { return *p; } }; but there's no way to tell from the documentation; it never describes how the Factory template parameter is actually used. http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/ sandbox/flyweight/libs/flyweight/ doc/reference/flyweight.html#fly weight As I read it, a flyweight<> can ignore all of its template parameters beyond T and still conform to its spec, which is probably not what's intended.

Good point. --Beman There's a file called 'madshell.phtml' in the Vault that is probably an exploit.

I found this... It was a nice overview of some of the distribution. Section 1.2 has a nice overview of the type 1, 2 and 3 distributions and how they relate (and how they're related to Weibull, for example).

I've adjusted the cleanup filter accordingly. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo More about http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/ sandbox/flyweight/libs/flyweight/ doc/reference/flyweight.html#fly weight I don't understand the source of the complexity at the flyweight<> level. A "naive" flyweight<> could look like: template<class T, class F = default_factory> class flyweight { typedef typename F::handle_type handle_type; handle_type handle_; public: flyweight( ... args ): handle_( F::insert( T( args... ) ) ) {} T const& get() const { return F::value( handle_ ); } }; It seems to me that this provides the same amount of expressive power as the current interface. Locking/tracking/holding can be made parameters of the Factory if so desired, and a factory_core<F',L,T,H> template may be provided as a convenience in a separate header, but in the majority of the cases the user will never need it. In fact flyweight<> is already implemented in a similar way, it uses a flyweight_core<> class as F. Note that the above simpler flyweight<> allows me to pass the aforementioned template<class T> struct sp_factory { typedef boost::shared_ptr<T const> handle_type; static handle_type insert( T const & t ) { return handle_type( new T( t ) ); } static T const & entry( handle_type p ) { return *p; } }; as F; there's no need to invent a locking policy, a tracking policy, a holder, or a stateful factory. ----- Mensaje original ----- De: Peter Dimov <pdimov(a)pdimov.com> Fecha: Domingo, Diciembre 16, 2007 8:27 pm Asunto: Re: [boost] [flyweight] some minor comments Para: boost(a)lists.boost.org > Thorsten Ottosen: > > Well, it's lower overhead (if no factory and forwarding > > constructors/operations makes it a better choice than > shared_ptrconst T>. > > It might be possible to do this using a custom factory along the > lines of: > > template<class T> struct sp_factory > { > typedef boost::shared_ptr<T const> handle_type; > > handle_type insert( T const & t ) { > return handle_type( new T( t ) ); } > void erase( handle_type ) {} > T const & entry( handle_type p ) { return *p; } > }; This approach would work (except for a technical issue I comment later) but it's overkill because it provides its own tracking, which is already taken care of by the Tracking policy. One would use then in conjunction with the no_tracking and no_locking policies, sort of like this: template<class T> using no_factory_flyweight= flyweight<T,sp_factory<_1,_2>,n o_tracking,no_locking>; An alternative would be to provide an even simpler factory: template<typename Entry,typename Value> struct trivial_factory { typedef const Entry* handle_type; handle_type insert(const Entry& x){return new Entry(x);} void erase(handle_type p){delete p;} const Entry& entry(handle_type p){delete p;} }; // default tracking is ref_counted template<class T> using no_factory_flyweight= flyweight<T,trivial_factory<_1,_2 >,no_locking>; Either of these two alternatives *almost* works, but for a detail: equality of flyweight objects is defined in terms of equality of reference, i.e. x==y iff &x.get()==&y.get(). sp_factory (and trivial_factory) interpret every value as distinct for any other: no_factory_flyweight<std:string> x("hello"), y("hello"); assert(x!=y); //assertion passes which results in no value sharing, except when a flyweight is copied from another.
