Should we still be testing GCC 2.95.3?
by Beman Dawes 15 Feb '06

15 Feb '06

I'm gettng pestered by the automatic regression test failure notification system about Boost.Filesystem with GCC 2.95.3. Does anyone still care? I could just mark all the failures as expected, but if no one cares anymore then we ought to stop testing 2.95.3, free up the testing resources and stop pestering Boost developers about 2.95.3 failures. --Beman

[bjam] tools/build/jam_src REMOVED!
by Rene Rivera 15 Feb '06

15 Feb '06

And it's 48 hours later... I just removed tools/build/jam_src. People should use the new tools/jam/src location. Yell if problems show up with the new location. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo

Boost logo in vector format
by Vladimir Prus 15 Feb '06

15 Feb '06

Hello! Is the Boost logo available in a vector format, preferrably SVG? I recall vector format was one of the requirements, but can see only boost.png in CVS. - Volodya

What's up with boost/utility/ ?
by Ronald Garcia 14 Feb '06

14 Feb '06

I'm wondering how the "boost/utility/" directory and utility.hpp header are managed. A few things I have noticed about it: - on the library documentation page, "utility" links point to "utility.htm" which does not document all of the libraries in the utility directory. Some of those libraries, like enable_if, have their own entry. - checked_delete() is documented in "utility.htm", but it is not in the boost/utility directory - there is a documentation page "boost/utility/index.html", but it doesn't seem to be linked to from anywhere. Some of the documentation referenced on that page has no other reference, and therefore seems inaccessible except through google. Is Boost.Utility a single library with multiple developers? Is it a directory where separate libraries get placed under some criteria? Where would a link to "boost/utility/index.html" rightfully go (or should each header in utility have its own documentation from the toplevel)? Why is checked_delete not in the "boost/utility" directory? Thanks, ron

[parameter] Named Template Parameter
by Felipe Magno de Almeida 14 Feb '06

14 Feb '06

Hi, I'm adventuring through the named template parameter support in the parameter library, using the test ntp.cpp as a documentation. But, AFAICS, there's no support for named template template parameters, is that right? Couldnt it be possible to add such feature? I think it is possible if we use a different binding and an template_template_keyword (or with another name) ? the parameter requirements would be different though.... I could code this support if there would be a support on how to do it (what would it break and etc?) I'm really needing this feature ASAP. Thanks, -- Felipe Magno de Almeida

[conversion] wchar_t support in lexical_cast
by Alexei Alexandrov 14 Feb '06

14 Feb '06

Hi, I'm trying to get boost working for x86_64 and Itanium on Windows. The result environment combination is rather strange: Platform SDK contains old Dinkumware STL and new compiler (14.0). So, the biggest problems is that I have to compile it without native wchar_t support. And lexical_cast is one of places where a problem exists: #if defined(BOOST_NO_STRINGSTREAM) || \ defined(BOOST_NO_STD_WSTRING) || \ defined(BOOST_NO_STD_LOCALE) || \ defined(BOOST_NO_INTRINSIC_WCHAR_T) #define DISABLE_WIDE_CHAR_SUPPORT #endif You can see that wchar_t support is disabled compeletely in lexical_cast if wchar_t is not available as a native type. Why is it so? It seems that I got it working if I change it to #if defined(BOOST_NO_STRINGSTREAM) || \ defined(BOOST_NO_STD_WSTRING) || \ defined(BOOST_NO_STD_LOCALE) #define DISABLE_WIDE_CHAR_SUPPORT #endif But probably there are some caveats here. What are they? -- Alexei Alexandrov

Will foreach or statechart be in release 1.34?
by Joe Gottman 14 Feb '06

14 Feb '06

Both foreach and statechart have been accepted into boost and added to the boost CVS, but as of today (February 13) neither has been added to the "What's new" section of the index. Will either be included in the 1.34 release? Joe Gottman

[graph] biconnected components patch
by Janusz Piwowarski 13 Feb '06

13 Feb '06

Hi all, I made two changes to biconnected components algorithm. First, because algorithm expects an udirected graph, I reduced the invocation of visitor's on_back_edge event for one direction only. Second, I modified the predecessor map use and now after algorithm completion map contains the full depth first search tree. Patch for code and documentation is attached. -- Regards, Janusz

[Boost-bugs] [ boost-Patches-1430820 ] [thread] [tss_hook.cpp] Suppress MSVC CRT memory leak report
by SourceForge.net 13 Feb '06

Patches item #1430820, was opened at 2006-02-13 09:49 Message generated for change (Tracker Item Submitted) made by Item Submitter You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=307586&aid=1430820&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: Kevin J Bluck (kbluck) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: [thread] [tss_hook.cpp] Suppress MSVC CRT memory leak report Initial Comment: MSVC CRT memory debugger pedantically complains about an unreleased singleton allocation. Although the consensus is that this is a harmless annoyance, it does cause some concern for MSVC users who don't know what is happening. Issue discussed in this Boost mailing list thread: http://lists.boost.org/boost-users/2005/08/13538.php Attached is a patch for tss_hook.cpp, which uses the function _CrtSetDbgFlag to temporarily turn off heap allocation tracking for the particular allocation in question. It should have no effect except on MSVC debug builds. On my configuration (msvc-8_0) it eliminates the leak warnings. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=307586&aid=1430820&group_… ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
