[boostbook] Extra space after void parameter declaration
by Julio M. Merino Vidal 01 Aug '06

01 Aug '06

Hi, I usually write function declarations that do not take any parameters using the "old" C style; that is: int foo(void); I've now started documenting my code using Doxygen and integrating the resulting documentation into a Quickbook document. The class summary is correctly formatted because it does not include the parameter names, but the function prototypes in their description show: int foo(void ); Note the extra space after void. It looks ugly and I believe it should not be there. The attached patch seems to fix this issue. Can it be integrated? Thanks, -- Julio M.

Where to place tests for BOOST_WORKAROUND?
by Gennaro Prota 01 Aug '06

01 Aug '06

Hi guys, despite proceeding on it by fits and starts I've completed the work on the new compiler identification macros. Since Rene asked for them to be committed after the 1.34 release they are still on hold (/auto-censorship here/) however I'd like to add tests for the new BOOST_WORKAROUND macro. The question is: it was, and is, a sort of private tool for boost developers, as its placement in the detail/ subdirectory emphasizes, so we probably (uncertainty and doubt) don't want its test results to show in the regression reports. If so, where should those tests go? -- [ Gennaro Prota, C++ developer for hire ]

Boost regression testing status
by Gennaro Prota 01 Aug '06

01 Aug '06

Hi, I'd like to point your attention toward the current status of our regression testing. I'll not express opinions, but these are some facts about 1.34: - Huang-WinXP-x64 - graph - graphviz_test / msvc-8.0 LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file '[...]\bgl-viz-vc80-gd-1_34.lib' - For some failures no error message is reported, so that it is pretty much impossible for the developer to fix them; e.g.: http://tinyurl.com/zmpwk - metacomm-v2 - algorithm/minmax - minmax / msvc-7.0 'vsvars32.bat' is not recognized as an internal or external command... - OSL4-V2 - python - andreas_beyer / sun-5.8 #error Python 2.2 or higher is required for this version of Boost.Python. - RudbekAssociates-V2 - iostreams - bzip2_test / msvc-7.1 LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file '[...]\boost_iostreams-vc71-gd-1_34.lib' The list is not exhaustive. -- [ Gennaro Prota, C++ developer for hire ]

I'm unsure what ODE's have to do with integrals. Anyway, for solving PDEs one should look at http://www10.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/~pflaum/expde/public_html/index. html for an example. I'd be interested to know if anyone has used this library :) Sohail

Boost Exception
by Emil Dotchevski 01 Aug '06

01 Aug '06

Hello, I posted the new version of the proposed Boost Exception library last Friday, you can get the new documentation and code here: http://www.revergestudios.com/boost-exception/boost-exception.htm. I have received two suggestions by email to remove the use of macros for type registration. Currently, to register tag_foo with the exception library, and to specify that its value is of type int, you'd use: BOOST_REGISTER_EXCEPTION_INFO(tag_foo,int) One suggestion was to use this instead: struct tag_foo { typedef int value_type; }; Another suggestion was very similar, with the following syntax: struct tag_foo: exception_info_tag<int> { }; I encourage everyone to provide your feedback in the mailing list instead of by email, so we can have an open discussion. Thanks, Emil Dotchevski

[Boost-bugs] [ boost-Bugs-1531909 ] The case insensitive modifier doesn't work
by SourceForge.net 31 Jul '06

Bugs item #1531909, was opened at 2006-07-31 11:29 Message generated for change (Tracker Item Submitted) made by Item Submitter You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=107586&aid=1531909&group_… Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: regex Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: John Maddock (johnmaddock) Summary: The case insensitive modifier doesn't work Initial Comment: My name is Florin Trofin (ftrofin at _adobe_ dot com) and I work for Adobe Systems. We are using boost/regex 1.33.1 in one of our projects and we've encountered the following bug: The case insensitive modifier is supposed to make the string comparison case insensitive from the place at which it is encountered first till the end. In view of this, if we have "ABC abc aCb" as the text in which we will be doing search and if we have find string as "(?i)[bc]" then the expectation is that b/B/c/C will be found. But only b/c is found. If we have "(?i)a[bc]" as find string then ab/ac/AB/Ab/AC/Ac are found as expected. The only place which is having problem is when we specify character class[] immediately after case insensitive modifier "(?i)". We also have issues regarding character equivalence on Mac. Japanese character equivalence in general is not working i.e. if we have [[=x=]] where x is a Japanese character in hiragana or katakana then the equivalence is not matching correctly. Please let me know if you want me to open a separate bug on this issue. If you need more info please let me know.

STLPort toolset documentation suggestion

I've found after much wasted time that with STL 5.x and a dynamic build, one has to have the STLPort .../bin in the path in order to find the correct stlport....dll. Perhaps this fact my be added to: http://www.boost.org/tools/build/v1/stlport.html Robert Ramey

Boost.Operators base class chaining
by Steven Watanabe 31 Jul '06

31 Jul '06

AMDG I am trying to create a library for type erasure(for boost if there is enough interest). I would like to define some common operations like arithmetic, I/O &c. For some of these I want to use Boost.Operators to provide the other related operations. I am also, however, using parametized inheritance in order to allow several operations to be combined. This for example is the definition of incrementable: namespace erasures { struct incrementable : operation<incrementable> { template<class T> struct static_impl : implementation<void (T&)> { static void execute(T& t) { ++t; } }; template<class Base> struct partial_interface : *boost::incrementable<typename Base::erasure_full_t, Base>* { typename Base::erasure_full_t& operator++() { erasures::call<erasures::incrementable>(*this); return(*erasures::full(this)); } }; }; } Is use of base class chaining in this way part of the public API of Boost.Operators? - Base may not be related to Boost.Operators in any way. Or should I use multiple inheritance instead? In Christ, Steven Watanabe
