Bugs item #988124, was opened at 2004-07-09 10:43 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=988124&group_i… Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: David W. Thomas (davidwt) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Borland compiler error with Pool, boost::pool_allocator Initial Comment: This Borland compiler error occurs with boost release versions 1.30.2 and 1.31.0. It also occurs with the latest CVS checkout as of July 9, 2004. I've tried this on two Win2000 computers with totally different hardware (Intel, AMD). Borland compilers from Borland Builder5 and from Borland BuilderX both generate an internal compiler error with a typedef of pool_allocator<int>. The source code file t.cpp contains: #include <boost/pool/pool.hpp> typedef boost::pool_allocator<int> node_alloc; Here is a copy of the DOS window for the two compiles: D:\>c:\borland\CBUILDER5\BIN\bcc32 - I\src.misc\boost;c:\borland\CBUILDER5\include t.cpp Borland C++ 5.5.1 for Win32 Copyright (c) 1993, 2000 Borland t.cpp: Fatal F1004 t.cpp 2: Internal compiler error at 0x46f530 with base 0x400000 Fatal F1004 t.cpp 2: Internal compiler error D:\>c:\borland\CBUILDERX\BIN\bcc32 - I\src.misc\boost;c:\borland\CBUILDERX\include t.cpp Borland C++ 5.6.4 for Win32 Copyright (c) 1993, 2002 Borland t.cpp: Fatal F1004 t.cpp 2: Internal compiler error at 0x4394f6 with base 0x400000 Fatal F1004 t.cpp 2: Internal compiler error ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=107586&aid=988124&group_i… ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.

RE: [boost] Question about Boost.Random
by Kris Thielemans 09 Jul '04

09 Jul '04

Hi Anders you probably should read my email on this of a few days ago. The simple answer is to use typedef boost::variate_generator<engine_t&, distribution_t> rng_t; (i.e. with ref) It all makes sense, it's just hard to get from the doc in my opinion.

Hi Paul, Yes, you've got the idea. The following document shows one such attempt to construct a system of traits for algebraic concepts: http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~schupp/entries/SOFTWARE/simpl/doc/AlgCpp.pdf also, more information is available starting at: http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~schupp/entries/SOFTWARE/simpl/ Cheers, Jeremy On Jul 7, 2004, at 7:32 PM, Paul C.

boost::posix_time::ptime constructor from special values? ( eg, not_a_date_time )
by Richard Reitmeyer 09 Jul '04

09 Jul '04

Hello. Thanks for all your work in the boost::date_time code. It's very useful. I've got a question about constructing a ptime from special values. The documentation says it works, but I can't find the appropriate constructor in ptime.hpp. (I'm using 1.31.0.) Is this a bug, or am I missing something? Richard

Partially specializing less<> with nested template class
by David B. Held 09 Jul '04

09 Jul '04

This is what I would like to do: template <class P1, class P2> struct sp { template <typename T> struct nested { }; }; template <typename T> struct less; template <class P1, class P2, typename T> struct less<sp<P1, P2>::nested<T> > : binary_function<...> { bool operator()(...); }; However, it doesn't work. From my research, it seems that the problem is that T is in a non-deduced context, but I don't see why that would be an issue, since this is how I expect it to get instantiated: less<sp<p1, p2>::nested<int> > comp; Thus, I don't see any deduction as being necessary, but obviously I don't exactly understand how to get what I want.

[regression] XSLT reports...
by Rene Rivera 09 Jul '04

09 Jul '04

For the regression reports that are generated with XSLT there is a rather annoying setting the master.css style sheet used for them. For some of the styles, legend, comment, and header-table, a fixed width attribute is used. If the width was small it would not be a problem. But the width is set to 800px. Which means that most people will end up scrolling left and right to see the complete content. If someone would nice enough to change these to a relative value, like 80%, it would be much appreciated. I'd do it myself, but I don't know if me changing the master.css in CVS has any effect on the test machines. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com - 102708583/icq

[ref] small problem with docs
by Jonathan Turkanis 09 Jul '04

09 Jul '04

The synopsis for unwrap_reference, at http://www.boost.org/doc/html/class.boost.unwrap_reference.html, is as follows: template<typename T> class unwrap_reference { public: // types typedef unspecified T; }; The second to last line should be 'typedef unspecified type;' Jonathan

RE: [boost] Re: VC7.1 Building...

>>If you want to build for vc7.1 you should use vc7.1. > > I did (bjam -sTOOLS=vc7.1 stage) and I get the following error: > > Vc7.1-tools.jam No such file or directory. ^ It's case sensitive. I did a search of the boost directory, and only a vc7-tools.jam, no vc7.1-tools.jam. I think that there is no jam file for vc7.1 in boost 1.29

Patch for Boost.Threads

Dear Boosters, I found that the recent changes made on libs/thread/src/exceptions.cpp break the SGI MIPSpro compiler. Could somebody apply the following patch? Thank you in advance.
