What is Boost?
by David Abrahams 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

Hi, Last night I hosted a birds-of-a-feather session at the SD Best Practices conferences here in Boston. I was encouraged that, at a conference that only adopted a C++ track this year, we had 15 people there. It was about evenly split between people who were using Boost and those who just came to find out more about it. Those who were using Boost were really enthusiastic. I was stunned to discover that the rest of them reported that wanted to know what Boost _is_, but that the website doesn't tell them. And when they said that, it hit me like a ton of bricks: they're right! We really need a section at the top of the page titled "What is Boost?" that covers something like the following: * Boost is a collection of C++ libraries - Free for any use - Extensively peer-reviewed - Extensively Tested * When you download Boost, you get the whole collection * There are some dependencies among libraries, but they are not tightly coupled * There is a tool (bcp) for extracting the parts you want and their dependencies. * Many boost libraries can be used just by putting the library collection's top directory in your #include path. Complete instructions for getting started are at: ___ * The important features of the Boost directory structure are: - boost - libs - more - tools (with rough descriptions of each) I'd like to see some discussion of what's missing (or extra) in the list above... and a volunteer to write the introductory passage :) -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com

My notes say that the solution that got most support was free-standing functions for "arbitrary strings". So support for stuff like rope was considered important. Let me also recap some other feedback: (a) the algorithms should work directly with string literals as they do today in boost. (b) many requested additional motivation for choosing this particular set of functions. > My point exactly. I believe string_algo library went (completely?) wrong > way.

Well, there are just too many string types out there to base the interface on basic_string<CharT>. Besides, it would not be very c++-ish to preach generic programming yet avoid using it in obvious places in the standard library. -Thorsten

RTL: Relational Template Library
by Arkadiy Vertleyb 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

Hi All. I just uploaded the latest version of Dmitriy Arapov's and my Relational Template Library (RTL) to the Boost file vault, http://tinyurl.com/8lbmg. This version is compatible with Boost 1.33. The RTL was discussed on this list at some time in the past. The early version of RTL is described in the March 2004 issue of CUJ. The main difference from currently discussed RML is that we decided against using SQL - like interface, and use the relational algebra-based interface instead. This choice is caused by our belief that the optimizer -- the module converting SQL query into an optimized relational expression -- is one of the most sophisticated parts of modern database engines. Also, writing a good optimizer in a system like RTL (or RML) would have to be done in large part at compile time, by the means of template meta-programming. This task doesn't seems to be feasible, at least currently. OTOH, writing a primitive optimizer, would, in our opinion do more harm than good. So, the RTL gives its user the possibility to build arbitrary relational expressions by hand. We augment the pure relational algebra with a few things, such as sort order, indexing, groupby, join, etc. We also allow indexing of any relational expressions, not just tables. So, for example, a user can do a selection on some arbitrary complicated criteria, and then index this selection. This would ultimately result in the index storing just keys to these records. This index would be incrementally updated when the underlying table has been changed. Achieving the same effect with conventional approach would require creation of a much larger index on a calculated field. Another example -- you have table of cities, and you need to get all the pairs, such as the distance between them is less than certain number. How would one solve the problem with the conventional SQL approach? This is a self-join. But how to make this query fast? With RTL approach, we could create an index on this self-join. The RTL can currently be compiled with VC7.1 or GCC 3.3+ (although with GCC there might still remain some naming conflicts between MPL and STL, that show up with certain usages) Regards, Arkadiy

[signals] expected failure markup for como
by Markus Schöpflin 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

There are currently two test failures (dead_slot_test, and trackable_test) which are marked as expected for como. The note says: 'The failure is caused by a compiler bug, which has been reported to the compiler supplier (or is already known to them).' Does anyone know the exact circumstances of this compiler bug or even has a small reproducer? Tru64/CXX has the same failures and I would like to submit a bug report to the vendor. Markus

[signals] usage of any_cast
by Andreas Pokorny 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

Hi, We just stumbled across a small problem with Boost.Signals, while playing with the symbol visibility features of gcc-3.4 and gcc-4. That feature is still buggy, but it unveiled some strange code. Somehow gcc failed to turn the type info of the types stored by any into a visible symbol, which is required for using boost::signals across shared libraries. So there are multiple type info objects and the dynamic_casts within signal failed, and the application crashed with a seg fault, since no one expected the cast to fail The code is in signal_template.hpp: template<typename Pair> R operator()(const Pair& slot) const { F* target = const_cast<F*>(any_cast<F>(&slot.second)); return (*target)(BOOST_SIGNALS_BOUND_ARGS); } I dont see why any_cast is used here at all. The type safety is guranteed by the interface of Boost.Signals, so I doubt that someone will be able to abuse the library. I believe the author of that code had the same in mind, since he did not test target != 0 before invoking the target. So in my opinion a simple reinterpret_cast should suffice here. It would also fix our issue, although that one is caused by gcc. Regards Andreas Pokorny
