[thread] Is there interest in shared_lock_prioritized?
by Antony Polukhin 20 Feb '13

20 Feb '13

Hi, I've got a very basic implementation and tests of shared_lock_prioritized, that can be used like that: // Events are written down in order of // their execution in different threads shared_lock_prioritized<2 /*priorities count*/ > lock; // thread #1 // Lock with minimal priority lock_shared(); // thread #2 // Lock with minimal priority lock_shared(0); // thread #3 // Lock for writing with priority // greater than locks of threads 1 and 2 // Waits till already acquired locks in #1 and #2 finish // and then writes lock(1); // thread #4 // Will wait till thread #3 finishes, only then acquire lock lock_shared(0); Such shared lock gives us ability to manage order/priority of different lock attempts, we can make write locks have bigger priority that read locks, have multiple priorities writes (ordered write locks) and so on... Is there an interest in it? -- Best regards, Antony Polukhin

[PropertyMap] proposing compose_property_map
by Guillaume Pinot 19 Feb '13

19 Feb '13

Hi. Using boost graph, and particulary reverse_graph, I needed a compose_property_map adaptor. As it may be interesting to everyone, I propose my code. http://texitoi.eu/~texitoi/compose_property_map/ I had problems to find a good return type for the get() free function. The solution proposed here has the drawback of needing a copy constructible type for the value_type of the FPMap in the concept checks. I didn't find any other type for the get() function that pass the concept checks and that do not return stack variable, and avoid useless copy. The patch may not work completely as I am discovering the boost build system. I am open to any comment. Thanks.

[interprocess] atomic<offset_ptr>
by Tim Blechmann 19 Feb '13

19 Feb '13

hi ion, i was wondering, what would be the best way to provide an atomic<offset_ptr>? it cannot be used out of the box, as offset_ptr does not conform to the std/boost::atomic<> requirements. afaict, one would have to pre-compute the offset for a specific memory location when performing a compare_exchange or store and fix up the offset after an atomic load. to do that, it will probably be required to access some internals of the offset_ptr. also, if i'm going to work on it (not sure if i will have time), where shall the implementation go? in a way, i'd rather put it into interprocess than into atomic. thoughts? cheers, tim

Boost.MultiIndex trunk tests fail all over with message errors like this: C:\...\boost/test/impl/test_main.ipp(39) : error C3861: 'BOOST_CHECK': identifier not found which is seemingly caused by the suppresion of an internal #include in a recent change to Boost.Test: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/changeset/82718#file5 Thank you, Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica Digital ________________________________ Este mensaje se dirige exclusivamente a su destinatario.

Tests failing?
by Marshall Clow 19 Feb '13

19 Feb '13

A bunch of my (String.Algo and Boost.Algo) tests are failing locally, with errors like: darwin.compile.c++ ../../../bin.v2/libs/test/build/darwin-4.2.1/debug/link-static/test_main.o In file included from ../../../libs/test/src/test_main.cpp:16: ../../../boost/test/impl/test_main.ipp: In member function 'void test_main_caller::operator()()': ../../../boost/test/impl/test_main.ipp:39: error: 'BOOST_CHECK' was not declared in this scope "g++" -ftemplate-depth-128 -O0 -fno-inline -Wall -pedantic -g -gdwarf-2 -fexceptions -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=1 -I"../../.." -c -o "../../../bin.v2/libs/test/build/darwin-4.2.1/debug/link-static/test_main.o" "../../../libs/test/src/test_main.cpp" ...failed darwin.compile.c++ ../../../bin.v2/libs/test/build/darwin-4.2.1/debug/link-static/test_main.o... Before I dive into this - is anyone else seeing this? Looking at the test results on the web site, it appears that Boost.Test is broken for several libraries. For example: http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/algorithm.html http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/crc.html http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/geometry.html -- Marshall Marshall Clow Idio Software <mailto:mclow.lists@gmail.com> A.D. 1517: Martin Luther nails his 95 Theses to the church door and is promptly moderated down to (-1, Flamebait). -- Yu Suzuki

Release Managers: permission to merge small feature to release?
by Marshall Clow 19 Feb '13

19 Feb '13

I have a ticket <https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/7652> asking for compile-time checked access to elements of a boost::array. I have implemented a specialization of boost::get (and for c++11, std::get) that does this, and it's been on the trunk and being tested for a couple weeks. This is technically not a bug fix, but new functionality, but I'd like to get it into the next release. So, I'm asking permission to merge to release. The change lists are 82083 (for the functionality), 82084 and 82102 (for the tests), and 82103 (for the docs) Thanks! -- Marshall

[type_erasure] Overloading
by Christophe Henry 18 Feb '13

18 Feb '13

Hi Steven, I'm afraid I might need some help again. I try to take as model the example in the doc (http://steven_watanabe.users.sourceforge.net/type_erasure/libs/type_erasure…) First problem, it seems that the example has a typo. It will not compile without a :Base in the concept_interface specialization: struct concept_interface< ::foo<T, U,void>, Base, T, Enable> : Base ... Second, the example overload.cpp includes a as_param.hpp which no more exists. But my problem is that I need an overload with 1 and 2 parameters: Test t; any< mpl::vector< foo<_self, int>, foo<_self, int, double>, boost::type_erasure::copy_constructible<> > > x (t); x.foo(1); // calls foo(int) x.foo(1,1.0); // calls foo(int, double) I don't get this to compile, the second foo cannot be found, I suppose the first one hides the second. Thanks in advance, Christophe Here my failed attempt (well, one of them ;-) ): template<class T, class U, class V=void, class Enable=void> struct foo {}; template<class T, class U, class V> struct foo<T,U,V,typename boost::disable_if<boost::is_same<V,void> >::type > { static void apply(T& t, const U& u, const V& v) { t.foo(u,v); } }; template<class T, class U, class V> struct foo<T,U,V,typename boost::enable_if<boost::is_same<V,void> >::type > { static void apply(T& t, const U& u) { t.foo(u); } }; namespace boost { namespace type_erasure { template<class T, class U, class Base, class Enable> struct concept_interface< ::foo<T, U,void>, Base, T, Enable> : Base { typedef void _fun_defined; void foo(typename rebind_any<Base, const U&>::type arg) { call(::foo<T, U, void>(), *this, arg); } }; template<class T, class U, class V, class Base> struct concept_interface< ::foo<T, U,V>, Base, T, typename Base::_fun_defined> : Base { using Base::foo; void foo(typename rebind_any<Base, const U&>::type arg, typename rebind_any<Base, const V&>::type arg2) { call(::foo<T, U,V>(), *this, arg,arg2); } }; } } struct Test { void foo(int) { std::cout << "foo(int) called" << std::endl; } void foo(double) { std::cout << "foo(double) called" << std::endl; } void foo(int,double) { std::cout << "foo(int,double) called" << std::endl; } }; int main() { Test t; any< mpl::vector< foo<_self, int>, foo<_self, int, double>, boost::type_erasure::copy_constructible<> > > x (t); x.foo(1); // calls foo(int) x.foo(1,1.0); // calls foo(int, double) return 0; }
