[Boost-bugs] [ boost-Bugs-1433424 ] program_options: additional parser bug
by SourceForge.net 17 Feb '06

17 Feb '06

Bugs item #1433424, was opened at 2006-02-17 00:54 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=1433424&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: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: program_options: additional parser bug Initial Comment: alexander.kondratyuk(a)gmail.com It seems there is a bug in additional parser wrapper - in case then my option has no parameters defined and declared in description, it adds an empty value to the vector of values when additional paser returns pair of strings. Changing code in cmdline.cpp in function cmdline::handle_additional_parser from next.value.push_back(r.second); to if (!r.second.empty()) next.value.push_back(r.second); will fix the problem. Here is an example that illustrates the problem: #define BOOST_WHATEVER_DYN_LINK #define BOOST_LIB_DIAGNOSTIC #include <boost/program_options/variables_map.hpp> #include <boost/program_options/options_description.hpp> #include <boost/program_options/parsers.hpp> #include <boost/program_options/detail/utf8_codecvt_facet.hpp> #include <boost/token_iterator.hpp> #include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp> using namespace boost::program_options; #include <string> #include <vector> using namespace std; pair<string, string> parserDashDashShort(const string& s) { string str = s.substr( 0, s.find('=') ); if( str.length()==3 && str[0]=='-' && str[1]=='-' && str[2]<='z' && str[2]>='a') { string val = s.substr(str.length()); return make_pair( str.substr(1), val ); } return make_pair(string(), string()); } int _tmain(int , _TCHAR* argv[]) { int style = command_line_style::allow_short| command_line_style::allow_dash_for_short | command_line_style::short_allow_adjacent; options_description desc; desc.add_options() ("help,h", "help message") ; char* args[]={"program.exe", "--h"}; int argc = sizeof( args ) / sizeof( args[0] ); parse_command_line<char>( argc, (char**)args, desc, style, parserDashDashShort ); return 0; } ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=107586&aid=1433424&group_… ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Hello, a boost-shmem library would by very useful. I could not figure out how a process sharing multiple message-queues with several other processes gets informed from which message-queue can be read without blocking? Would this be possible (some demultiplexing mechanism)? Regards, Oliver

[Review] Shmem on QNX6
by Jim Douglas 17 Feb '06

17 Feb '06

Please always state in your review, whether you think the library should be accepted as a Boost library! Yes - How much effort did you put into your evaluation? A glance? A quick reading? In-depth study? A glance at the docs and a couple of attempts at the tests. - Are you knowledgeable about the problem domain? The QNX OS offers many techniques for IPC - shared memory is just one of those. I use it a lot, but normally for POD (Plain Old Data) and simple non-virtual classes. I have learned the hard way over the years about its limitations e.g. no pointers, no virtual classes etc. I look forward to being able to evaluate this library in more depth as time permits. - Did you try to use the library? With what compiler? Did you have any problems? I attempted to build and test on QNX Neutrino v6.3.0 (aka QNX6) using the gcc 3.3.5 compiler and Dinkumware C++ std library. There were some compile failures and test failures, but nothing that could not be fixed given time. The QNX supplied GNU C++ std library fails miserably because the wide character support is disabled. - What is your evaluation of the design? Generally good. QNX does not currently support memory mapped files although it does allow the creation of regular files (but not directories) under /dev/shmem. Memory mapped files are being implemented and are promised for a future release. - What is your evaluation of the documentation? Others have said it all. - What is your evaluation of the potential usefulness of the library? The core classes for managing the memory space save a lot of C code and go way beyond the simple helper classes I have written. Synchronisation primitives are pretty much mandatory in shared memory applications and I welcome these. I look forward to evaluating the use of STL classes and being able to treat the shared memory dynamically. A number of the extensions that you propose in the form of message passing queues between processes already exist in the QNX kernel, but I can see the potential for less fortunate :-) operating systems.

[mpl][test] Plans for supporting sunpro-5_8-sunos and dmc- 8_47?
by Andreas Huber 16 Feb '06

16 Feb '06

Are there any plans for mpl and test support for these compilers in 1.34? I'm asking because many statechart failures on these compilers are actually mpl or test failures. If there are no plans I'll simply mark statechart unusable, no problem. If there are plans however, I'll probably need to reserve considerable time for investigating failures... Thanks & Regards, -- Andreas Huber When replying by private email, please remove the words spam and trap from the address shown in the header.

[1.34] Feature Freeze
by Thomas Witt 16 Feb '06

16 Feb '06

Hi, as announced earlier the Boost CVS is in feature freeze mode (Release Stage 3) now. In case you really need to put more features in please talk to me *first*. Let's shoot for a branch for release in 4 weeks from now. Please focus on fixing regressions for the next 4 weeks. One more thing that needs to be done is updating the what's new in 1.34.0 section in boost/index.htm. Could every library author please check whether the latest cool features for her/his library are in there and if not add them. Thanks! Thomas Release Manager 1.34.0 -- Thomas Witt witt(a)acm.org
