[preprocessor] nested for_each not working like expected
by Eric Niebler 10 Aug '13

10 Aug '13

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. According to the docs, this should work: #define S0 (0)(1)(2)(3) #define S1 (5)(6)(7)(8) #define M4(R, DATA, ELEM) (DATA,ELEM) #define M2(R, DATA, ELEM) BOOST_PP_SEQ_FOR_EACH_R(R, M4, ELEM, S1); BOOST_PP_SEQ_FOR_EACH(M2, ~, S0) I expect to get a sequence like (0,1)(0,2)... for each combination. I get gibberish. (Please don't tell me to use FOR_EACH_PRODUCT. In my real use case, M2 and M4 are far more complicated, and a simple product won't do.) Can anybody please tell me what I'm doing wrong? TIA, -- Eric Niebler Boost.org

[chrono] Outdated information in documentation
by Björn Pollex 10 Aug '13

10 Aug '13

In the getting started section [1] it refers to an issue with the BOOST_ERROR_CODE_HEADER_ONLY macro which seems to be fixed by now. Regards, Björn [1] http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/doc/html/chrono/users_guide.html#chron…

[move] forward with lvalue ref template param
by Andrew Ho 08 Aug '13

08 Aug '13

Hi during my implementation of unique_ptr I noticed that boost::forward doesn't play nicely with lvalue ref types. int a; int &b = a; int &c = std::forward<int&>(b); // compiles fine int &d = boost::forward<int&>(b); // compiler error I did a little playing around with the declarations of forward and I managed to get this to work: // if T is not a lvalue ref and movable template <class T> inline typename ::boost::move_detail::enable_if_c < enable_move_utility_emulation<T>::value && ::boost::move_detail::is_rv<T>::value && !::boost::move_detail::is_lvalue_reference<T>::value, const T &>::type forward(typename ::boost::move_detail::identity<T>::type &x) BOOST_NOEXCEPT { return const_cast<T&>(x); } // if T is not a lvalue ref and not movable template <class T> inline typename ::boost::move_detail::enable_if_c < enable_move_utility_emulation<T>::value && !::boost::move_detail::is_rv<T>::value && !::boost::move_detail::is_lvalue_reference<T>::value, const T &>::type forward(const typename ::boost::move_detail::identity<T>::type &x) BOOST_NOEXCEPT { return x; } // if T is a lvalue ref template <class T> inline typename ::boost::move_detail::enable_if_c < ::boost::move_detail::is_lvalue_reference<T>::value , T>::type forward(T x) BOOST_NOEXCEPT { return x; } Basically, this forces all calls to forward<A&> to simply return the lvalue ref (const-ness is maintained, I think), otherwise it does whatever boost::forward did before. As far as I can tell, this doesn't break boost::forward, and it enables it to properly handle taking lvalue refs. Am I right in my assumptions? Are there any cases where this would fail to produce standard-compliant/desired results?

[git] eol issues and fetchRecurseSubmodules = on-demand
by Ahmed Charles 08 Aug '13

08 Aug '13

Two things: 1. tools\build\v2\engine\build.bat has LF instead of CRLF for line endings, which causes bootstrap.bat (which has the right endings) to not work properly. It seems like the top level .gitattributes doesn't apply to submodules. 2. After cloning and fetching modular boost each day for a while, I finally figured that waiting an hour or so to sync could probably be improved. So I read the docs and tested adding fetchRecurseSubmodules = on-demand for each submodule in .gitsubmodules and it seems to work much faster with the same result. (It would result in differences once the submodules can change without the super-project changing, but currently, I don't think that is the case.) Perhaps it's with considering?

[boost/spirit] numeric policy
by Brian Schrom 07 Aug '13

07 Aug '13

I've had the case where I needed to retain formatting information for a number (general, fixed, scientific) and was nicely accomplished by extending the policy, but needed to have a begin_parse() and end_parse() for the policy to be complete. It seems that it makes some sense or is this accomplished another way? Maybe something to consider for policies in general?

MinGW test failures
by Andrey Semashev 07 Aug '13

07 Aug '13

Hi, I can see that almost all MinGW tests (jc-bell.com runner) for trunk are failing, at least for Boost.Log [1] and Boost.Atomic [2]. However, test logs don't show any errors, only compiler warnings. Does anyone know what is the problem? Also, this is not the first time when I see no errors in logs while the test is marked as failed. This is really unhelpful. Are some logs being lost by the test running suite?

[predef] Boost detail/endian.hpp
by Rene Rivera 07 Aug '13

07 Aug '13

FYI.. I just tested, locally, and checked in the replacement for the "boost/detail/endian.hpp". This file is now non-BSL license free. If this is a header you rely on I would appreciate it if you could do your own testing to make sure it lives up to the previous header's functionality. Thanks, Rene. -- -- -- 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
