status/explicit-failures-markup.xml broken

Hi, someone broke status/explicit-failures-markup.xml, apparently. I'm getting these error messages from xsltproc: /boost/head-regression/boost/status/explicit-failures-markup.xml:594: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: ostream line 594 and note <note>Interval IO require <ostream> header.</note> ^ /boost/head-regression/boost/status/explicit-failures-markup.xml:595: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: note line 594 and mark-failure </mark-failure> ^ /boost/head-regression/boost/status/explicit-failures-markup.xml:596: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: mark-failure line 591 and test </test> ^ /boost/head-regression/boost/status/explicit-failures-markup.xml:597: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: test line 584 and library </library> ^ /boost/head-regression/boost/status/explicit-failures-markup.xml:1159: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: library line 570 and explicit-failures-markup </explicit-failures-markup> ^ /boost/head-regression/boost/status/explicit-failures-markup.xml:1161: parser error : Premature end of data in tag explicit-failures-markup line 1 Please, make sure to quote '<' and '>' correctly in XML files.

The other three patches we were taking about some hours ago are also commited, so in principle minmax could now work for every compiler in Linux and Win32 tests. The current Linux cycle is broken, so we will have to wait until tomorrow to know. Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo

[minmax] failure in GCC 3.4.1
by Joaquín Mª López Muñoz 22 Jul '04

22 Jul '04

GCC 3.4.1 complains with this absolutely clear run-time message (http://tinyurl.com/42bey) error: attempt to copy-construct an iterator from a singular iterator I've inspected the code of minmax_element_test.cpp and think the problem lies in lines 106-107: CIterator min, max; RCIterator rfirst(last), rlast(first), rmin(min), rmax(max); where rmin and rmax are copy-constructed from min,max, which are singular. Anyone sees a problem in fixing this? (Please find diff below.) I don't have GCC 3.4.1 available, so I can only guess this will clear the problem away.

RE: [boost] Re: counting_iterator_test.hpp fails on aC++
by DY, JERRY U (SBCSI) 22 Jul '04

The problem is that since my_int2 is not a random access iterator, class iterator_adaptor's member function "advance" would not compile because of the static assertion below trying to convert random_access_traversal_tag to bidirectional_traversal_tag (my_traversal). FILE: boost/iterator/iterator_adaptor.hpp:310 void advance(typename super_t::difference_type n) { // precompiled to: // typedef int assertion[sizeof(detail::static_assert_convertible_to<random_access_trav ersal_tag>(my_traversal()))]; BOOST_ITERATOR_ADAPTOR_ASSERT_TRAVERSAL(random_access_traversal_tag) m_iterator += n; } -Jerry -----Original Message----- From: boost-bounces(a)lists.boost.org [mailto:boost-bounces@lists.boost.org] On Behalf Of David Abrahams Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2004 7:20 AM To: boost(a)lists.boost.org Subject: [boost] Re: counting_iterator_test.hpp fails on aC++ "DY, JERRY U \(SBCSI\)" <jd2419(a)sbc.com> writes: > Sorry... sent the original e-mail too quickly.

But we don't want my_int2 to pass the is_numeric test. What's the problem? If counting_iterator_test.cpp fails there must be another reason.

Oh it works - its being subject to the boost torture test process as we speak. The issue of unique type identification was addressed at length during the first serialization review. If the typeid is only used within a program runtime type_info can be used. The system doesn't require type_info to be used but that's usually the most convenient - unless your compiler doesn't support runtime typing. If its to be passed from one executable to another - persistence and/or marshalling - you have to export it with some sort of key. I usually use the class name. Its all in there and even explained in the context of its usage within the serialization package. There is also a facility referred to a void_cast which is used to correctly cast from one type to another at runtime. That's the short version - you might want to check out the manual and the code. It could easily be excised from the serialization library. I only did it because I had to have it and I couldn't find anything else out there. Honestly, I'm not even sure it addresses the same issue that you do. Feel free to check it out. Robert Ramey

Hmm - isn't this something that could/should be automatically handled by the bjam - gcc toolset file? I'm not really sure what I should do here. Things worked before but I suspect that this was because I had static-linking specified as the default - but I removed this to address some other confusion and relied on the default set "somewhere else" I'm not at all sure what I should do here. I think it is also affecting builds with Itel 7.1 on linux. Robert Ramey

question re linux serialization test results
by Robert Ramey 22 Jul '04

22 Jul '04

http://boost.sourceforge.net/regression-logs/cs-Linux.html shows errors in build of the serialization libraries related to pthreads, etc.... I suspect this is a build issue of some sort. When this first occurred I tweaked the jamfile. I suspect there might be some stale *.o files. Thanks for looking into this whoever you are. Robert Ramey

Latest Boost.Threads regression results on intel-8.0-linux
by Michael Glassford 22 Jul '04

22 Jul '04

All of the Boost.Threads tests for intel-8.0-linux at http://boost.sourceforge.net/regression-logs/cs-Linux/developer/thread.html are failing, and the entire error report looks like: <quote> Compiler output: Linker output: Chmod1 ../bin/boost/libs/thread/test/test_barrier.test/intel-8.0-linux/debug/threading-multi/test_barrier Run output: EXIT STATUS: 139 </quote> Every test failing with the same error indicates a fundamental problem, but since I don't have access to the compiler or OS, I have no way of troubleshooting the problem. Any help would be appreciated. Mike
