boost and 2007 US DST change
by Graham Bennett 15 Jan '07

15 Jan '07

Hi, I'm trying to evaluate whether some applications which use Boost are exposed to problems with the change to the start and end dates of Daylight Saving Time in the US this year (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_Policy_Act_of_2005#Change_to_daylight_s…) >From an initial inspection, it seems there are at least two areas which may cause incorrect behaviour after the change is made: - There is a deprecated template class boost::date_time::us_dst_rules (http://www.boost.org/boost/date_time/dst_rules.hpp) which hard-codes the rules for US DST changes. Admittedly this class is deprecated, but it remains in the code base. - Boost ships with a database of timezone and DST information in CSV format. This appears to contain the old dates for the DST changeover as reported here http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1478619&group_id=7…. Does the above seem right? Also, have these problems been fixed in the upcoming 1.34 release? From a quick scan of CVS it seems not. I'd also be grateful if people could comment on any other areas within Boost that could be problematic, if any. Lastly I wonder if it's worth perhaps summarising this on the Boost site somewhere so that it's easier for others to find the information. Thanks in advance, Graham -- Graham Bennett

a new release of Channel framework
by Yigong Liu 15 Jan '07

15 Jan '07

Hello all, I just uploaded a new release of Channel framework at http://channel.sourceforge.net. Channel is a template framework for asynchronous distributed message passing and event dispatching. Channel is built on top of many boost facilities. Here are the links: Design doc: http://channel.sourceforge.net/boost_channel/libs/channel/doc/design.html Website: http://channel.sourceforge.net Download: http://sourceforge.net/projects/channel Changes in this release: 1> complete filter and translator related code. When we build distributed applications around distributed name spaces, we may want to "relocate"/"mount" the names imported (from a connection to a remote name space) to a specific sub-region in local name space. For example, if we have a name space in desktop computer and connect to a PDA and a laptop, we can set translators at connections so that names imported from PDA will appear under "/pda/" and names from laptop will appear under "/laptop/". Or if our application use integer as ids/names, we may want to relocate ids from the 1st connection to [1000-1999] and ids from next connection to [2000-2999] and so on. That is similar to the way how we mount remote file-systems to local file-system. filters are used to restrict the valid range of names allowed to pass in/out specific channel connections. A sample is added to demo the usage of filter and translator. 2> add "unnamed" bindings of sender and receiver. Up to now, most of efforts focus on setting up the binding between message senders and receviers thru name-matching in name_space. Often when we apply message passing / event dispatching model to implement localized (in a single address space) applications or modules, we may not want the trouble of setting up name space and assigning names. Many message passing based systems (such as inferno/limbo, plan9/libthread, CCR, C++CSP) provide "port" or "channel" (which are normal local objects) to help build these applications. From Channel's design perspective, these local communication primitives are special bindings of sender and receiver. They are "unnamed", not set up thru name-matching in name space. These unnamed primitives can work with named primitives smoothly. Design document has been updated to cover this. Sample unnamed primitives have been added and some sample applications are added to demo the usage. Suggestions and comments are highly appreciated. More is coming. Thanks Yigong

BOOST_FOREACH and Boost 1.33.1
by Theodore Witkamp 15 Jan '07

15 Jan '07

Hey I am a bit new to Boost. I would like to use BOOST_FOREACH but it's not in the 1.33.1 distribution. What is the status of BOOST_FOREACH? It looks like it's in some BACK PORT branch of 1_33_1. Thanks

Warning from share_ptr
by Paul A Bristow 15 Jan '07

15 Jan '07

I am getting an annoying warning when building boost_math.dll AND generating Microsoft VS 8.0 'managed' code /clr:pure, even at warning level 1. (clr code is needed because we are building a Windows .net form in C# to demonstrate Math function and Statistics Distribution using John Maddock's Math Toolkit in C++. Aside - with a lot of annoying wrapping, John has made this work). The message is: C4793 'vararg' : causes native code generation for function 'void boost::detail::sp_enable_shared_from_this(const boost::detail::shared_count &,...)' Adding this #pragma to the top of our boost_math.cpp file does NOT suppress it. #pragma warning(disable: 4793) // 'vararg' : causes native code generation for function 'void boost::detail::sp_enable_shared_from_this(const boost::detail::shared_count &,...)' Is this worrying? Is there something wrong with the pushing and popping of warnings? Someone has already done some message suppression for SGI I see. #ifdef sgi // Turn off: the last argument of the varargs function "sp_enable_shared_from_this" is unnamed # pragma set woff 3506 #endif Is this the right way to deal with it for MSVC in shared_prt.hpp? #ifdef _MSC_VER #pragma warning(push) #pragma warning(disable: 4793) // 'vararg' : causes native code generation for function 'void boost::detail::sp_enable_shared_from_this(const boost::detail::shared_count &,...)' #endif inline void sp_enable_shared_from_this( shared_count const & /*pn*/, ... ) { } #ifdef sgi # pragma reset woff 3506 #endif #ifdef _MSC_VER #pragma warning(pop) #endif With this it gives a clean compile :-)) Could/should this is added to the normal Boost shared_prt.hpp? Or is there a cleaner solution that avoids vararg? Paul --- Paul A Bristow Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal, Cumbria UK LA8 8AB +44 1539561830 & SMS, Mobile +44 7714 330204 & SMS pbristow(a)hetp.u-net.com
