Windows build problems was Re: steps before v3 merge into MariaDB

 

Made some closer inspections, took a while to untangle the templates and warnings

I got similar bit subtly different errors using MSVC2010 in 64-bit on Win7
Note this required installing the 7.1 SDK (and uninstalling the previously
present MSVC2010 redsitriutable!)

On MSVC2010/64 instead I was seeing unable to match and of the 12 overloads
for get(...)


In both cases though seems to hinge on being unable to resolve a property map
of weights to edges (or something)...

The above statement is a bit vague, I know.... more concretely, I noted the
following differences between Boost 1.54 (MSVC2008, fails) and 1.42 on debian
squeeze:

inside djisktra_shortest_paths() :

boost 1_54

      void examine_edge(Edge e, Graph& g) {
        // Comparison needs to be more complicated because distance and weight
        // types may not be the same; see bug 8398
        // (https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/8398)
        D source_dist = get(m_distance, source(e, g));
        if (m_compare(m_combine(source_dist, get(m_weight, e)), source_dist))
            boost::throw_exception(negative_edge());
        m_vis.examine_edge(e, g);
      }

boost 1_42
            template <class Edge, class Graph>
      void examine_edge(Edge e, Graph& g) {
        if (m_compare(get(m_weight, e), m_zero))
            boost::throw_exception(negative_edge());
        m_


I am currently rebuilding with boost 1.42 to see if that succeeds on MSVC2008...


this will be a slow process, because I find myself reverse engineering how it
all hangs together and having to write chains to find out what a type
ultimately resolves to and untangle all the 'legendary' template compiler
messages, being currently unfamiliar with this end of the code

Ultimately I may end up having to write some test harnesses that narrow things
down (and speed up the build process!)
