[1.35.0] Tickets, Milestone, Testing
by David Abrahams 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=reo… shows all the tickets that have been assigned to the 1.35.0 milestone. Does this list have any meaning? In other words, are we actually intending to address all of these problems for 1.35, and put off other tickets for 1.35.1 or 1.36.0? IMO getting this list sorted out and handling the tickets one-by-one is the most productive way to get us from here to a successful release of 1.35.0. That may mean a number of new tickets need to be added (probably at least one for each major failure we're seeing in http://engineering.meta-comm.com/boost-regression/1_34_1/developer/issues.h… and possibly others) and it will require part of the release team to triage the whole list of tickets assigned to 1.35.0 and make some decisions to put certain tickets off for later. Also, are we running complete tests on the release branch currently? I don't see any links to test results for that part of the repo. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com

[serialization] Clearing Intel/Windows errors?
by Beman Dawes 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

A whole bunch of serialization tests are failing for Intel/Windows because of an apparent error in export.hpp. See below. What is the status of getting this fixed? ..\boost/serialization/export.hpp(131): error: redeclaration cannot add dllexport/dllimport to "boost::archive::detail::ptr_serialization_support<Archive, Serializable>::instantiate" (declared at line 131) BOOST_DLLEXPORT void ptr_serialization_support<Archive,Serializable>::instantiate() Thanks, --Beman

C++ Performance
by nisha kannookadan 04 Dec '07

Hi everybody Im a quite new boost user and I wonder, why C++ Program is so slow. I wrote a program, and I have the same program in Matlab, I expected that my C++ version is much faster, but its not. I use matrices, vectors, matrix- and vector proxies. Do some solving and compute calculations with prod, element_div, etc.. Is boost in general slower than matlab, should I use something else? Id be real happy about any help.

An innocent mistake was nearly the end of me ;-)

I have been puzzled by the effect of my mistyping causing this message. i:\trunk\boost/range/const_iterator.hpp(37) : error C2039: 'const_iterator' : is not a member of 'std::ios_base' C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\include\xiosbase(183) : see declaration of 'std::ios_base' i:\trunk\boost/mpl/eval_if.hpp(63) : see reference to class template instantiation 'boost::range_const_iterator<C>' being compiled with [ C=std::ios_base ] i:\trunk\boost/range/iterator.hpp(63) : see reference to class template instantiation 'boost::mpl::eval_if_c<C,F1,F2>' being compiled with [ C=true, F1=boost::range_const_iterator<std::ios_base>, F2=boost::range_mutable_iterator<const std::ios_base> ] I:\Boost-sandbox\SOC\2007\visualization\boost/svg_plot/show_2d_settings.hpp(104) : see reference to class template instantiation 'boost::range_iterator<C>' being compiled with [ C=const std::ios_base ] i:\trunk\boost/range/const_iterator.hpp(37) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'type' i:\trunk\boost/range/const_iterator.hpp(37) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed.

I suspect I may not be first or last person to do this :-) Could the source file usefully have a comment that says something like " If you get a error "'const_iterator' : is not a member of 'std::ios_base'" here have you typed "end;" somewhere instead of "endl;" " ?

[hdstl] Status and future plans?
by Staffan Gimåker 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

Hello list, I recently found myself in need to use a half-edge datastructure for doing Delaunay triangulation. Rather than rolling my own half-assed classes, I thought I'd see what the recent GSoC project on the topic had to offer. I've only glanced through the sources, but it certainly looks nice. However, before spending more effort on it it'd be nice to know its current status and what the future has in store for it. From http://tinyurl.com/283gm2 I gather that its mostly complete, but that's also pretty much information I could find, except for the sources. Are there plans on submitting the library for review, and if so, in what timeframe? I'd really like to see something like this make it into Boost, it's a shame to see that it's been 4 months since the code was changed. Staffan Gimåker

units: need limits
by Noah Roberts 03 Dec '07

03 Dec '07

std::numeric_limits needs to be implemented for quantity. I think this should work: namespace std { template< typename T, typename U > class numeric_limits< boost::units::quantity<U, T> > : public numeric_limits<T> { typedef numeric_limits<T> type_limits; typedef boost::units::quantity<U, T> qty; public: static qty denorm_min() { return qty(type_limits::denorm_min() * U()); } static qty epsilon() { return qty(type_limits::epsilon() * U()); } static qty infinity() { return qty(type_limits::infinity() * U()); } static qty max() { return qty(type_limits::max() * U()); } static qty min() { return qty(type_limits::min() * U()); } static qty round_error() { return qty(type_limits::round_error() * U()); } static qty quiet_NaN() { return qty(type_limits::quiet_NaN() * U()); } static qty signalizing_NaN() { return qty(type_limits::signaling_NaN() * U()); } }; }
