signal_template.hpp bug?
by Peter Dimov 15 Mar '06

15 Mar '06

signal_template.hpp:213 is: #if BOOST_WORKAROUND(BOOST_MSVC, <= 0x1700) What is 0x1700 supposed to mean here? The comment mentions 6.0 and 7.0, which correspond to 1200 and 1300 (decimal). This workaround disables disconnect() for non-groups on all versions of MSVC; doesn't this cause unexpected test failures? Furthermore, if I try to compile the example I was sent: #include <boost/signal.hpp> #include <boost/bind.hpp> using namespace boost; typedef signal<void(int)> sig_t; typedef sig_t::slot_function_type func_t; struct A { void f(int) { } }; int main() { sig_t sig; A a; func_t x = bind(&A::f, ref(a), _1); sig.connect(x); sig(42); sig.disconnect(x); sig(42); } with the workaround set to 1300, it still doesn't work: C:\Documents and Settings\Peter Dimov\cvs\boost\boost\signals\signal_template.hpp(242) : error C2666: 'boost::operator`=='' : 4 overloads have similar conversions C:\Documents and Settings\Peter Dimov\cvs\boost\boost\function\function_template.hpp(689): could be 'void boost::operator ==<R,T0,Allocator>(const boost::function1<R,T0,Allocator> &,const boost::function1<R,T0,Allocator> &)' with [ R=void, T0=int, Allocator=std::allocator<void> ] C:\Documents and Settings\Peter Dimov\cvs\boost\boost\function\function_base.hpp(649): or 'boost::enable_if_c<B,T>::type boost::operator ==<boost::signal1<R,T1,Combiner,Group,GroupCompare,SlotFunction>::slot_function_type>(Functor,const boost::function_base &)' with [ B=true, T=bool, R=boost::detail::function_traits_helper<boost::add_pointer<void (int)>::type>::result_type, T1=boost::detail::function_traits_helper<boost::add_pointer<void (int)>::type>::arg1_type, Combiner=boost::last_value<void>, Group=int, GroupCompare=std::less<int>, SlotFunction=boost::function<void (int)>, Functor=boost::signal1<boost::detail::function_traits_helper<boost::add_pointer<void (int)>::type>::result_type,boost::detail::function_traits_helper<boost::add_pointer<void (int)>::type>::arg1_type,boost::last_value<void>,int,std::less<int>,boost::function<void (int)>>::slot_function_type ] C:\Documents and Settings\Peter Dimov\cvs\boost\boost\function\function_base.hpp(640): or 'boost::enable_if_c<B,T>::type boost::operator ==<Function>(const boost::function_base &,Functor)' with [ B=true, T=bool, Function=func_t, Functor=func_t ] or 'built-in C++ operator==(boost::function1<R,T0,Allocator>::safe_bool, boost::function1<R,T0,Allocator>::safe_bool)' with [ R=void, T0=int, Allocator=std::allocator<void> ] and [ R=void, T0=int, Allocator=std::allocator<void> ] while trying to match the argument list '(boost::signal1<R,T1,Combiner,Group,GroupCompare,SlotFunction>::slot_function_type, const func_t)' with [ R=boost::detail::function_traits_helper<boost::add_pointer<void (int)>::type>::result_type, T1=boost::detail::function_traits_helper<boost::add_pointer<void (int)>::type>::arg1_type, Combiner=boost::last_value<void>, Group=int, GroupCompare=std::less<int>, SlotFunction=boost::function<void (int)> ] C:\Documents and Settings\Peter Dimov\cvs\boost\boost\signals\signal_template.hpp(224) : see reference to function template instantiation 'void boost::signal1<R,T1,Combiner,Group,GroupCompare,SlotFunction>::do_disconnect<T>(const Function &,boost::mpl::bool_<C_>)' being compiled with [ R=boost::detail::function_traits_helper<boost::add_pointer<void (int)>::type>::result_type, T1=boost::detail::function_traits_helper<boost::add_pointer<void (int)>::type>::arg1_type, Combiner=boost::last_value<void>, Group=int, GroupCompare=std::less<int>, SlotFunction=boost::function<void (int)>, T=func_t, Function=func_t, C_=false ] testbed.cpp(23) : see reference to function template instantiation 'void boost::signal1<R,T1,Combiner,Group,GroupCompare,SlotFunction>::disconnect<func_t>(const T &)' being compiled with [ R=boost::detail::function_traits_helper<boost::add_pointer<void (int)>::type>::result_type, T1=boost::detail::function_traits_helper<boost::add_pointer<void (int)>::type>::arg1_type, Combiner=boost::last_value<void>, Group=int, GroupCompare=std::less<int>, SlotFunction=boost::function<void (int)>, T=func_t ] -- Peter Dimov http://www.pdimov.com

[off-topic] why do we not have std::copy_if?
by Caleb Epstein 14 Mar '06

14 Mar '06

I've recently wondered why std::copy doesn't have an analogous std::copy_if: template<class InIt, class OutIt, class Pr> OutIt *copy_if*(InIt first, InIt last, OutIt dest, Pr pred); that would copy elements to dest where the predicate returns true. Not unlike "grep" in Perl and "filter" in Python. The same goal can be achieved with std::remove_copy_if and the use of a sense-reversed predicate, but this leads to confusing code IMHO. Why wouldn't this be part of the Standard Library, or am I missing something ridiculously obvious? -- Caleb Epstein caleb dot epstein at gmail dot com

no matching function for call to boost::algorithm::split

Hi, I'm trying to compile the following code with g++, but it generates an error. It compiles fine in VC8. typedef vector<string> to_t; to_t to; split(to, row.f(2).s(), is_any_of(",")); error: no matching function for call to 'split(main()::to_t&, std::string, boost::algorithm::detail::is_any_ofF<char>)' /usr/include/boost/algorithm/string/split.hpp:143: note: candidates are: SequenceSequenceT& boost::algorithm::split(SequenceSequenceT&, RangeT&, PredicateT, boost::algorithm::token_compress_mode_type) [with SequenceSequenceT = main()::to_t, RangeT = std::string, PredicateT = boost::algorithm::detail::is_any_ofF<char>] Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? $ g++ -v Using built-in specs.

[spirit] ast_calc_tests, repeast_ast_tests
by Vladimir Prus 14 Mar '06

14 Mar '06

Hi, the above two tests fail on a number of compilers with what looks like a two-phase lookup issue. See: http://tinyurl.com/jeakp http://tinyurl.com/q3hbv I can reproduce this locally with g++ 3.4. Can somebody check if this is a bug in the library, or some quirk with g++ 3.4? Thanks, Volodya

[app submission] Paragent Manage
by Timothy Ritchey 14 Mar '06

14 Mar '06

Application: Paragent Manage 2.1 Company: Paragent URL: <http://www.paragent.com> Description: Paragent Manage is a Desktop Management Application that uses a lightweight agent written in C++. Unlike traditional desktop management solutions, Paragent Manage avoids the complexity and cost of servers by using peer-to-peer communication between agents and the administrative console. This allows real-time inventory searching, alerting and software auditing in an easy-to-deploy and maintain package. Boost Usage: We have used boost extensively throughout our agent, including: threads shared_ptr bind spirit date_time algorithm multi_index filesystem Apart from some read_write_mutex issues we had, boost has been a seamless part of our development, and has allowed us to develop and deploy a very complex, highly threaded networking agent with a built-in lisp-like xml-based scripting language all done in C++. Our entire development team would like to thank everyone for their hard work on behalf of C++ coders everywhere.

[xpressive] OSL2-V2 test failures
by Vladimir Prus 14 Mar '06

14 Mar '06

Doug, in the current OSL2-V2 results, many of xpressive tests fail at runtime with some dynamic linking error: http://tinyurl.com/q62ly The error basically says that 3.4.4 binary links to runtime from another gcc version. I have no idea why it shows up on one test, but I'd need your help to solve this. Can you do this: 1. Given me the exact content of toolset files you use for V1 (not V2) testing. 2. Give me the content of user-config.jam 3. Go to libs/xpressive/test, touch c_traits.cpp and then run the "c_traits" test using -n option with both V1 and V2 and with both compiler version. I think that the following commands should work bjam -n -sTOOLS=gcc-3.3.6-linux c_traits bjam -n -sTOOLS=gcc-3.4.4-linux c_traits bjam -n --v2 gcc-3.3.6 c_traits bjam -n --v2 gcc-3.4.4 c_traits and send me the output. Thanks in advance, Volodya
