now and are well-supported, whereas genclass (mostly) predates them.)

<title>Namespace <code>std::</code> not supported</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Some care is required to support C++ compiler and or library
|
|
implementation that do not have the standard library in
|
|
<code>namespace std</code>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|

<para>

The following sections list some possible solutions to support compilers
|
|
that cannot ignore <code>std::</code>-qualified names.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
First, see if the compiler has a flag for this. Namespace
|
|
back-portability-issues are generally not a problem for g++
|
|
compilers that do not have libstdc++ in <code>std::</code>, as the
|
|
compilers use <code>-fno-honor-std</code> (ignore
|
|
<code>std::</code>, <code>:: = std::</code>) by default. That is,
|
|
the responsibility for enabling or disabling <code>std::</code> is
|
|
on the user; the maintainer does not have to care about it. This
|
|
probably applies to some other compilers as well.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Second, experiment with a variety of pre-processor tricks.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
By defining <code>std</code> as a macro, fully-qualified namespace
|
|
calls become global. Volia.
|
|

|
<para>
|
|
Thanks to Juergen Heinzl who posted this solution on gnu.gcc.help.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Another pre-processor based approach is to define a macro
|
|
<code>NAMESPACE_STD</code>, which is defined to either
|
|
<quote> </quote> or <quote>std</quote> based on a compile-type
|
|
test. On GNU systems, this can be done with autotools by means of
|
|
an autoconf test (see below) for <code>HAVE_NAMESPACE_STD</code>,
|
|
then using that to set a value for the <code>NAMESPACE_STD</code>
|
|
macro. At that point, one is able to use
|
|
<code>NAMESPACE_STD::string</code>, which will evaluate to
|
|
<code>std::string</code> or <code>::string</code> (i.e., in the
|
|
global namespace on systems that do not put <code>string</code> in
|
|
<code>std::</code>).

<title><code>isspace</code> from <filename class="headerfile">cctype</filename> is a macro
|

</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Glibc 2.0.x and 2.1.x define <filename
|
|
class="headerfile">ctype.h</filename> functionality as macros
|
|
(isspace, isalpha etc.).
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
This implementations of libstdc++, however, keep these functions
|
|
as macros, and so it is not back-portable to use fully qualified
|
|
names. For example:
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
#include <cctype>
|
|
int main() { std::isspace('X'); }
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Results in something like this:
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
std:: (__ctype_b[(int) ( ( 'X' ) )] & (unsigned short int) _ISspace ) ;
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
A solution is to modify a header-file so that the compiler tells
|
|
<filename class="headerfile">ctype.h</filename> to define functions
|
|
instead of macros:
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
// This keeps isalnum, et al from being propagated as macros.
|
|
#if __linux__
|
|
# define __NO_CTYPE 1
|
|
#endif
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Then, include <filename class="headerfile">ctype.h</filename>
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Another problem arises if you put a <code>using namespace
|
|
std;</code> declaration at the top, and include <filename
|
|
class="headerfile">ctype.h</filename>. This will result in
|
|
ambiguities between the definitions in the global namespace
|
|
(<filename class="headerfile">ctype.h</filename>) and the
|
|
definitions in namespace <code>std::</code>
|
|
(<code><cctype></code>).
|
|
</para>
|
|
</sect3>
|
|
|
|
<sect3>
|
|
<title>No <code>vector::at</code>, <code>deque::at</code>, <code>string::at</code></title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
One solution is to add an autoconf-test for this:
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
AC_MSG_CHECKING(for container::at)
|
|
AC_TRY_COMPILE(

#include <vector>
|

#include <deque>
|

#include <string>
|
|
|
|
using namespace std;
|
|
],
|
|
[
|
|
deque<int> test_deque(3);
|
|
test_deque.at(2);
|
|
vector<int> test_vector(2);
|
|
test_vector.at(1);
|
|
string test_string(<quote>test_string</quote>);
|

test_string.at(3);
|
|
],

[AC_MSG_RESULT(yes)

AC_DEFINE(HAVE_CONTAINER_AT)],
|
|
[AC_MSG_RESULT(no)])
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
If you are using other (non-GNU) compilers it might be a good idea
|
|
to check for <code>string::at</code> separately.

<title>No <code>string::clear</code></title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
There are two functions for deleting the contents of a string:
|
|
<code>clear</code> and <code>erase</code> (the latter returns the
|
|
string).
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
void
|
|
clear() { _M_mutate(0, this->size(), 0); }
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
basic_string&
|
|
erase(size_type __pos = 0, size_type __n = npos)
|
|
{
|
|
return this->replace(_M_check(__pos), _M_fold(__pos, __n),
|
|
_M_data(), _M_data());
|
|
}
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Unfortunately, <code>clear</code> is not implemented in this
|
|
version, so you should use <code>erase</code> (which is probably
|
|
faster than <code>operator=(charT*)</code>).

oss << <quote>Name=</quote> << m_name << <quote>, number=</quote> << m_number << std::endl;
|
|
...
|
|
#ifndef HAVE_SSTREAM
|
|
oss << std::ends; // terminate the char*-string
|
|
#endif
|
|
|
|
// str() returns char* for ostrstream and a string for ostringstream
|
|
// this also causes ostrstream to think that the buffer's memory
|
|
// is yours
|
|
m_label.set_text(oss.str());
|
|
#ifndef HAVE_SSTREAM
|
|
// let the ostrstream take care of freeing the memory
|
|
oss.freeze(false);
|
|
#endif
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Input-stringstreams can be used similarly:
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
std::string input;
|
|
...
|
|
#ifdef HAVE_SSTREAM
|

std::istringstream iss(input);
|

#else
|
|
std::istrstream iss(input.c_str());
|
|
#endif
|
|
|
|
int i;
|
|
iss >> i;
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para> One (the only?) restriction is that an istrstream cannot be re-filled:
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
std::istringstream iss(numerator);
|
|
iss >> m_num;
|

// this is not possible with istrstream

iss.clear();

iss.str(denominator);
|

iss >> m_den;
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
If you don't care about speed, you can put these conversions in
|
|
a template-function:
|
|
</para>
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
template <class X>
|
|
void fromString(const string& input, X& any)
|
|
{
|
|
#ifdef HAVE_SSTREAM
|
|
std::istringstream iss(input);
|
|
#else
|
|
std::istrstream iss(input.c_str());
|
|
#endif
|
|
X temp;
|
|
iss >> temp;
|
|
if (iss.fail())
|
|
throw runtime_error(..)
|
|
any = temp;
|
|
}
|

</programlisting>

Earlier GCC releases had a somewhat different approach to
|
|
threading configuration and proper compilation. Before GCC 3.0,
|
|
configuration of the threading model was dictated by compiler
|
|
command-line options and macros (both of which were somewhat
|
|
thread-implementation and port-specific). There were no
|
|
guarantees related to being able to link code compiled with one
|
|
set of options and macro setting with another set.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
For GCC 3.0, configuration of the threading model used with
|
|
libraries and user-code is performed when GCC is configured and
|
|
built using the --enable-threads and --disable-threads options.
|
|
The ABI is stable for symbol name-mangling and limited functional
|
|
compatibility exists between code compiled under different
|
|
threading models.

The libstdc++ library has been designed so that it can be used in
|
|
multithreaded applications (with libstdc++-v2 this was only true
|
|
of the STL parts.) The first problem is finding a
|
|
<emphasis>fast</emphasis> method of implementation portable to
|
|
all platforms. Due to historical reasons, some of the library is
|
|
written against per-CPU-architecture spinlocks and other parts
|
|
against the gthr.h abstraction layer which is provided by gcc. A
|
|
minor problem that pops up every so often is different
|
|
interpretations of what "thread-safe" means for a
|
|

Phil Edwards writes: It was considered and rejected for the ISO

|
|
For a portable solution (among systems which use
|
|
file descriptors), you need to implement a subclass of
|
|
<code>std::streambuf</code> (or
|
|
<code>std::basic_streambuf<..></code>) which opens a file
|
|
given a descriptor, and then pass an instance of this to the
|
|
stream-constructor.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
An extension is available that implements this.
|
|
<filename class="headerfile">ext/stdio_filebuf.h</filename> contains a derived class called
|
|
<ulink url="http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/latest-doxygen/a00074.html"><code>__gnu_cxx::stdio_filebuf</code></ulink>.
|
|
This class can be constructed from a C <code>FILE*</code> or a file
|
|
descriptor, and provides the <code>fd()</code> function.
