Since we have now a generic bridge to supply std::hash functions based on
an exisiting boost::hash function, we removed the explicit std::hash
specialisation for "Placement-ID".
This caused the PlacementIndex implementation to fail at compilation
with a quite obscure error, which in fact seems to be caused by the
absence of any specific specialisation. The symptom is that a iterator
range could not be assigned to the predefined iterator type of
std::unordered_multimap, due to a mismatch in the embedded traits type
__umap_traits<__cache_default<_Key, _Hash>::value>>
While I didn't track down that problem entirely, to verify my hypothesis,
the problem can be avoided by using the default -- which is now to
pick up an existing boost::hash function for this type and use this
to generate the std::hash function.
right now we have to defeat an unfortunate static assertion in
the standard library, which is expected to go away in the future.
We use a hack to hijack the problematic definition with the preprocessor,
which requires our header to be first.
c++11 uses another hashtable implementation.
This uncovered some poorly written tests, which relied on
objects being returned in a specific order. As far as poissible,
we're using generic query functions now to get our test objects.
But these tests still rely on a specifically crafted test index content,
which as such is acceptable IMHO. The only remaining problem is
that we check the order of generated output in some tests, and this
order is still implementation dependent.
In the November developer meeting, Christian and I agreed that
it's best to remove that offending LUID specifications altogether.
Those embedded LUIDs where one of the issues blocking the transition to C++11
- upgrade the configuration to a current version
- provide a frontpage with cross-links to other documentation
- define a set of modules; relevant classes and files can be
added to these, to create a exploration path for new readers
- fix a lot of errors in documentation comments
- use a custom configuration for the documentation pages
- tweak the navigation, the sections and further arrangements
to make them stand out more prominently, some entity comments
where started with a line of starts. Unfortunately, doxygen
(and javadoc) only recogise comments which are started exactly
with /**
This caused quite some comments to be ignored by doxygen.
Credits to Hendrik Boom for spotting this problem!
A workaround is to end the line of stars with *//**
Clang doesn't allow to declare a private nested class as friend.
This is unfortunate, but likely correct to the letter of the standard.
As a workaround, now we're creating the instances within a static
function of DependencyFactory -- in the end this improves readability
A second issue fixed with this changeset is the scope of the
marker function. Clang is right, this isn't ADL, thus an inline
friend definition is simply not visible outside the class.
lib::Depend<TY> works as drop-in replacement for lib::Singleton<TY>
This changeset removes the convoluted special cases like
SingletonSub and MockInjector.
clang-3.2 requires a clarification here (while previous versions
of clang and GCC automatically resolved the ambiguity by assuming
use of a nested, dependent template).
Clang is more insistent when it comes to enforcing 'protected' visibility.
Since in this case the basic design can be considered sane and optimal, the
only (and obvious) solution is to nest the PIMPL into a default base class
for implementation; this mirrors the structure of the interface.
Compilation with Clang 3.0 (which is available in Debian/stable) fails,
mostly due to some scoping and naming inconsistencies which weren't detected
by GCC. At some instances, Clang seems to have problems to figure out a
perfectly valid type definition; these can be resolved by more explicit
typing (which is preferrable anyway)
using our util::_Fmt front-end helps to reduce the code size,
since all usages rely on a single inclusion of boost::format
including boost::format via header can cause quite some code bloat
NOTE: partial solution, still some further includes to reorganise
this draft fills in the structure how to get from an invocation
of the engine service to the starting of actual CalcStream instances.
Basically the EngineService implementation is repsonsile to
instruct the Segmentation to provide a suitable Dispatcher.
This is necessary since the implementation of the job functions
calls through the VTable of the interface JobClosure. Thus this
interface (and the VTable definition) needs to reside within
some compilation unit linked together with the basic job class.
TODO: move class Job entirely into the Backend
basically I've changed my mind to prefer an
infinite JobPlanningSequence, which is just
evaluated partially. This removes the need to
embody the logic of planning chunk generation,
which really is a different concern.
decision: the base for any deadline calculations
is the expected real time corresponding to the grid origin.
This value is contained in the Timings record.
