[serialization] Inherited objects
by Jared McIntyre 12 Oct '05

12 Oct '05

I've gone through the documentation, and I'm still unable to get this particular aspect of serialization working. I have two objects 'a' and 'b', and 'b' inherits from 'a'. I have a vector of 'a' pointers that may just be 'a' or may be 'b'. I've preregistered 'b', right before the vector serialization occurs, so that the serialization system should properly recognize that 'b' inherits from 'a'. However, only the 'a' pieces of each 'b' in the vector serializes. If I place all the 'b' items in a second 'b' containing vector, and serialize that afterwards, it properly discovers that the 'a' part has been serialized already and simply points to that reference. I don't really want to store this second 'b' vector. Is there a way to get a vector of a items to also serialize the 'b' part of the element if the item is a 'b'? I apologize if this is already in the documentation, but if it is, I missed it. Also, there is an issue in the documentation. In the "Pointers to Objects of Derived Classes" section, it has example registration code: main(){ ... ar.template register_type<derived_one>(); ar.template register_type<derived_two>(); base *b; ar & b; } I'm guessing that is supposed to be: main(){ ... ar.register_type<derived_one>(); ar.register_type<derived_two>(); base *b; ar & b; } Thanks, Jared

[optional] Breaking changes in 1.33.0 vs 1.32.0
by Anthony Williams 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

I have some code that has been merrily using the 1.32.0 release of boost, including boost::optional, and I've just tried to change to use the 1.33.0 release (this is the first change to this codebase since 1.33.0 was released). In my code, I have boost::optional<X> where X is copy-constructible, but not assignable. This works in 1.32.0, but fails in 1.33.0. Ouch! What is the reason for the change? Why is this not listed in the "Updated libraries" section of the docs? Why is this not listed under the "Type Requirements" section of the docs?

Suggest who's developer information on more/getting_started.html
by Larry Evans 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

PROBLEM: I had been a sandbox cvs developer, but I was unsure if that also made me main cvs developer. This resulted in several emails between me and mailto:boost-owner@lists.boost.org before things were cleared up. SUGGESTED SOLUTION: apply the attached patch to: http://www.boost.org/more/getting_started.html This makes clear who has write access to the main cvs. FEEDBACK: Please let me know within the next 10 days if there are any objections to this patch. If there are no objections, I will apply the patch on day 11. TIA.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but are you suggesting that no string algorithms should modify a string in-place? That would be unacceptable to me. I wouldn't use such a library. -- Be seeing you.

The performance difference between a 16-bit integer and 32-bit integer on a PDP-11 was pretty significant. Is there any noticable difference between a 32-bit and 64-bit integer on any of the 64-bit processors? > Isn't int the 'natural' integer type, by definition? Depends what you mean by "natural", but for a normal English meaning, probably not. > I never understood why long didn't become the 64-bit type. It seems > pointless to have int and long the same size on 32-bit. Oh god no! The thread that would not die! This has been argued to death on comp.std.c. The reason long didn't become the 64-bit type is that most commercial C compiler vendors wanted to continue to support code their customers had written that assumed long was exactly four eight-bit bytes. You can argue as long as you like that the problem is in that code (and I would agree with you). It won't change the fact that telling your customers they are wrong is not usually the route to commercial success. > Who still writes 16-bit code on desktop, anyway? :D Nobody ... but who still writes for the desktop?

[parameter] little flaw in tutorial
by Martin Wille 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

Hello, the example code in the Boost.Parameter tutorial #includes <boost/parameter/keyword.hpp> as only Boost.Parameter header. This is apparently insufficient, since I get errors regarding incomplete types (e.g. return type `struct boost::parameter::aux::tagged_argument<graphs::tag::index_map, const char[13]>' is incomplete ). With <boost/parameter.hpp> #included, there are no errors. Regards, m Send instant messages to your online friends http://au.messenger.yahoo.com

You could calculate it at run-time, though. "Fixed" is relative. For example, if you based it on the width of some text, it would change (be recalculated) whenever the dialog's font changed. -- Dave Harris, Nottingham, UK.

[serialization]Thread-safety of serialization lib
by Sean Huang 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

There are many places in serialization library that use a pattern like the following: static oserializer & instantiate(){ static oserializer instance; return instance; } AFAIK, not all compilers guarantee the initialization of a function level (or class member level) static variable is thread-safe. If I understand the code correctly, this essentially means that simultaneously serializing objects of the same type is not thread-safe. Am I missing something here? Thanks, Sean

compiler error with Spirit: wrong internal use of regex library
by Oliver Kullmann 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

Hello, when using the regular expression parser with the Spirit library, I get the following compilation error (I've edited the g++-output somewhat): g++ -c -o TestSpirit.o -ansi -g -Iboost-1_33/include/boost-1_33/ TestSpirit.cpp In file included from boost-1_33/include/boost-1_33/boost/spirit/utility/regex.hpp:46, boost-1_33/include/boost-1_33/boost/spirit/utility/impl/regex.ipp:65: error: wrong number of template arguments (1, should be 2) Command exited with non-zero status 1 I edited the file boost-1_33/include/boost-1_33/boost/spirit/utility/impl/regex.ipp, replacing line 65 boost::reg_expression<CharT> rxstr; // regular expression to match with boost::basic_regex<CharT> rxstr; // regular expression to match , and now it seems to work (at least my application). So I guess the Spirit library needs to be updated (according to the new regex-library standard). Oliver P.S. I tried it out with g++ 3.4.3 and 4.0.1, but it doesn't matter.

a question about scoped_ptr and checked_delete
by Bronek Kozicki 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

As I understand, checked_delete is being used by scoped_ptr to prevent deletion of incomplete type. However, this very simple program is accepted by MSVC6, MSVC71 and MinGW (GCC) 3.4.4, even though implicit destructor of A is deleting incomplete class A::impl . Only one compiler of these that I could test (Comeau 4.3.3) throws compilation error. Could we do better? I know, there are simple workaround - declare destructor in class A or use shared_ptr . But as we know, workarounds in user code to generate compilation error (not suppress them) are rare thing. B. #include <boost/scoped_ptr.hpp> struct A { struct impl; boost::scoped_ptr<impl> impl_; A(); }; int main() { A a; } struct A::impl {}; A::A() : impl_(new impl()) {}
