If the containers have 10,000 ints, the test results are not noticably different. These may not be the most common application, but the C++ middleware/serialization frameworks that I'm familiar with support container classes. From my perspective the tests I chose are basic things you have to have in order to support more complicated things. Brian Wood www.webEbenezer.net _______________________________________

Boost binary serialization, patch proposal for cross architectures compatibility
by Steve Gury 11 Feb '07

11 Feb '07

Hi, I'm a user of boost serialization and I've detected a small lack in inter-architecture compatibility. Issue: The C and C++ programming languages have different native storage of standard type depending on the architecture of the operating system. For example: On a Linux 64bits (LP64), a long variable is stored with 8 bytes but on a Windows 32bits (ILP32) that same variable will be stored with 4 bytes. Using boost binary serialization as common format for data exchange between those different systems won't work fine. I've written a small patch to fix this issue. Change: _ Detect if binary serialized data come from a system with different native architecture by reading the header. Even if archive is created with the flag "no_header", the architecture signature is stored. _ Change the way how std::string (char*, and other) are stored. We have to store the string's length as a fixed size type (I've chosen unsigned int) and not size_t (which is an unsigned integer of 64bits on 64bits architecture and of 32bits on 32bits architecture). _ Change the way how long and unsigned long are stored by specializing template function for saving and loading. _ All those changes have been protected by a "#define BOOST_CROSS_ARCHITECTURE_COMPATIBLE" I've compiled and tested this patch, on Windows XP 32bits, Debian Linux 64bits (x86_64), compiled with Visual Studio 2005 ( 8.0) and gcc 4.1 Best regards, Steve Gury PS:You can find the patch as attachment.

Detailed report: http://engineering.meta-comm.com/boost-regression/CVS-RC_1_34_0/developer/i… The following platforms have a large number of failures: intel-linux-9.0 499 failures in 37 libraries (97 are from non-broken platforms) algorithm/string (0 of 1 failures are from non-broken platforms) concept_check (0 of 1 failures are from non-broken platforms) config (1 of 2 failures are from non-broken platforms) date_time (4 of 25 failures are from non-broken platforms) dynamic_bitset (1 of 2 failures are from non-broken platforms) filesystem (0 of 2 failures are from non-broken platforms) foreach (0 of 1 failures are from non-broken platforms) function (8) functional/hash (0 of 1 failures are from non-broken platforms) graph (1 of 3 failures are from non-broken platforms) io (1) iostreams (0 of 8 failures are from non-broken platforms) iterator (1) math (2 of 5 failures are from non-broken platforms) multi_index (0 of 1 failures are from non-broken platforms) numeric/conversion (2) numeric/interval (1) numeric/ublas (8) parameter (0 of 1 failures are from non-broken platforms) pool (1) program_options (0 of 7 failures are from non-broken platforms) ptr_container (0 of 1 failures are from non-broken platforms) python (0 of 67 failures are from non-broken platforms) random (2) regex (3 of 37 failures are from non-broken platforms) serialization (0 of 215 failures are from non-broken platforms) signals (1) spirit (0 of 5 failures are from non-broken platforms) statechart (0 of 5 failures are from non-broken platforms) static_assert (1) test (14 of 25 failures are from non-broken platforms) thread (0 of 7 failures are from non-broken platforms) tr1 (0 of 1 failures are from non-broken platforms) type_traits (8) utility (1) wave (5 of 10 failures are from non-broken platforms) xpressive (31) Test failures marked with a (*) represent tests that failed on platforms that are considered broken. They are likely caused by misconfiguration by the regression tester or a failure in a core library such as Test or Config. |algorithm/string| regex: intel-linux-9.0* |concept_check|

Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Alexey Kuznetsov (axet) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Implicit graph not implement Initial Comment: In page http://www.boost.org/libs/graph/doc/astar_search.html, say : "A* is particularly useful for searching implicit graphs". But in astar_search.hpp you can see MutableQueue with fixed element size. As result use astar search for implicit graph - imposible.

If exponents of 4 are the highest you've seen, shouldn't you consider the size of (2*3*5*7*11*13*17)^4, which requires 76 bits? Also, I may want to extend the list - some people have requested a "money" unit, for example, which would be assigned the value 19 in your system. Then I can't even represent all powers of 3. I suspect this idea, while clever, does not cover the problem domain sufficiently well to be superior to lists. - James Jones Administrative Data Mgmt.
