[gsoc19] Seeking a mentor for Boost.GIL project
by Igor Antropov 02 Apr '19

02 Apr '19

DearSir/Madam, My name isIgor Antropov and I would like to participate in GSoC 2019.I amfirst-year undergraduate master majoring in Software Engineering at ITMOUniversity (Saint Petersburg National Research University of Information Technologies,Mechanics and Optics).I aminterested in computer vision and C++. I have made AR-application using Unityand OpenCVForUnity at my third-year of bachelor degree. Unfortunately, thatOpenCVForUnity was based on OpenCV version 2.1 or smaller and was the only onefree to use. There was no algorithm for markers detection, so I had to codeit. At the fourth-year, I have implementobject tracking algorithm with C++ and OpenCV using HOG features and colornames features. Additionally, I havebeen working as programmer with Qt for 1 year. I aminterested in implementation of different algorithms using GIL, so I propose toimplement some image feature detection and matching algorithms. For example,ORB keypoints detector(http://www.willowgarage.com/sites/default/files/orb_final.pdf) and brute-forcematching. Besides, I think Boost.GIL numeric algorithms can have some improvements (add 2D convolution, add convolve_option_extend_reflect as convolve_boundary_options). If Boost.GIL users need some other algorithms to be implemented,please contact me. As my competencytest, I have implement a simple Canny edge detection algorithm using GIL. https://github.com/boostorg/gil/pull/258 Sincerely, IgorAntropov

Hi, I'm starting preparing the application for Google Season of Docs 2019. I created a wiki page to start collecting project ideas here: https://github.com/boostorg/boost/wiki/Google-Season-of-Docs-2019 Instruction of how to write a project idea are here: https://developers.google.com/season-of-docs/docs/project-ideas Please add any idea you have, even if you are not able to mentor it, someone else may volunteer for it. Best regards, Damian Vicino

[gsoc19] Seeking a mentor for Boost.Geometry project related to triangulation and random sampling
by Tinko Bartels 01 Apr '19

01 Apr '19

Hi, I am interested in participating in this year's Google Summer of Code with a contribution to Boost.Geometry. I am looking for mentors and I understand that potential mentors for Boost.Geometry-related projects are Vissarion Fysikopoulos and Adam Wulkiewicz. My proposal is a project that is based on project 3 and 4 for Boost.Geometry in the Wiki. I propose to add concepts for triangles, triangulation, and point-generators for random sampling, as well as corresponding models and an algorithm for Delaunay-triangulation with parametrizable geometric predicates. The first draft of my proposal can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/17M44Hpn0KMuECztCbkvTYIeN2EiXbMAUsVni22K… My implementation of the tasks in the competency tests can be found here: https://tinko92.github.io/boost_geometry_GSoC_2019_project_3_4_test/ I'd be thankful for any feedback. Kind regards, Tinko Bartels -- Sent from: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/Boost-Dev-f2600599.html

[format] Allow the format library to use std::optional
by Sean Farrow 30 Mar '19

30 Mar '19

Hi, Would be possible/desired to allow boost.format to use std::optional instead of boost.optional when compiling a C++17 project. I've raised a GitHub issue to resolve this: https://github.com/boostorg/format/issues/63 I would be happy to do this if it were warranted. Kind regards Sean.

It looks like VS2019 isn't being autodetected. It seems to be working for Tom's test runners. Maybe see what you get from: vswhere -latest -products * -requires Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.Tools.x86.x64 -property installationPath -version "[16.0,17.0)" (This is how Boost.Build tries to detect VS2019.)

[visibility][test][osx] visibility warnings with 1.70beta
by Raffi Enficiaud 28 Mar '19

28 Mar '19

Hi, I have a side project that requires boost.test and I thought it is the right time to use the beta build of 1.70. At link time for my project (in this case a simple boost.test module), I have tons of warnings like the following: ld: warning: direct access in function 'boost::unit_test::decorator::depends_on::apply(boost::unit_test::test_unit&)' from file '/Users/raffi/from-big-laptop/code/software_workshop/sw_thirdparties/osx/boost_1_70_0_b1/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-xgcc42-mt-x64-1_70.a(decorator.o)' to global weak symbol 'boost::unit_test::basic_cstring<char const>::null_str()::null' from file '/Users/raffi/code/mpi/mpi_kmeans/build/MPI-Kmeans.build/Debug/test_mpi_kmeans.build/Objects-normal/x86_64/test_cls_and_func_impl.o' means the weak symbol cannot be overridden at runtime. This was likely caused by different translation units being compiled with different visibility settings. running Xcode 10.1 on 10.14/mojave. I am building boost like this: ./b2 \ cflags="-mmacosx-version-min=10.10" \ cxxflags="-std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.10" \ mflags="-mmacosx-version-min=10.10" \ mmflags="-mmacosx-version-min=10.10" \ linkflags="-stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.10" \ --prefix=`pwd`/../${build_folder} \ --without-log \ --layout=versioned \ install Each of the files that are being built in my project and that are raising the warning have a compilation command like this: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/c++ -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB -DKMEANS_VERBOSE=0 -I/Users/raffi/code/mpi/mpi_kmeans/include -I/Users/raffi/code/mpi/mpi_kmeans/applications/include -isystem /Users/raffi/from-big-laptop/code/software_workshop/sw_thirdparties/osx/boost_1_70_0_b1/include/boost-1_70 -O3 -DNDEBUG -std=gnu++11 -o CMakeFiles/test_mpi_kmeans.dir/test/test_kmeans.cpp.o -c /Users/raffi/code/mpi/mpi_kmeans/test/test_kmeans.cpp which is pretty much what I had so far and before 1.70. Boost.test is using BOOST_SYMBOL_VISIBLE to make a symbol public, including the static build variant. Why does the linker say """ This was likely caused by different translation units being compiled with different visibility settings. """ is completely unclear to me. How can I inspect what b2 emits as compilation command line for further debugging? All those visibility issues are causing me a lot of headache :) Thanks! Raffi
