Concatenating const_string's - c++

How do I concatenate two const_string's? Its home http://conststring.sourceforge.net/ says citation:
It also uses expression templates for concatenation, effectively eliminating overhead resulting from creation intermediate temporary objects.
So I thought its simplest form
typedef class boost::const_string<char> csc;
csc a, b;
csc c = a+b;
should work. But gcc-4.6 complains about operator+. Why? Do I have to cast a and b to std::string?
Error output follows:

Did you include the relevant header, boost/const_string/concatenation.hpp?

The const_string class contains a constructor for concatenations:
template<class T, class U>
const_string(concatenation<const_string, T, U> const& expr) // throw(std::bad_alloc, std::length_error)
: storage_type(0, expr.size())
{
expr.copy_result_to(const_cast<char_type*>(this->begin()));
}
and the library itself contains a concatenation class that takes two const_strings.
You could use those.
The header in which the concatenation class is defined is also where operator+ is defined, btw.

Why boost::replace_all_copy is not working? C++

I am trying to make working code to replace text of line. Using boost_1_64_0 .
getline (ifs, line);
cout << line << endl;
// 1.
boost::replace_all(line, "abc", "hij");
boost::replace_all(line, "def", "klm");
// 2.
line = boost::replace_all_copy
boost::replace_all_copy<string>
(
("abc def abc def", "abc", "hij")
, "def"
, "klm"
);
I am getting these errors:

You have written obviously broken code:

error while working with boost::sregex_token_iterator

I want to search for a regular expression and print it with a color. I used boost::sregex_token_iterator to do this. this is my code
boost::regex re("ab.");
string s="";
string buf;
string infile("retest.txt");
//string color="green";
ifstream in(infile.c_str());
int lcount=0;
while (getline(in,buf))
{
boost::sregex_token_iterator p(buf.begin(), buf.end(), re, 0);
boost::sregex_token_iterator end;
lcount++;
cout <<"line : "<<lcount<<endl;
for (;p != end;++p)
{
string m(p->first, p->second);
cout<< m <<endl;
//cout <<*(p->first)<<endl;
//cout <<*(p->second)<<endl;
//unsigned int pos = buf.find(m);
buf = buf.insert(p->first,"\e[0;32m");
buf = buf.insert(p->second+m.length()+7,"\e[0m");
}
cout<<"\n";
s.append(buf);
s.append("\n");
}
in.close();
cout <<"s is: "<<s<<endl;
return 0;
}
but I get this error :

I know that the type of p->first is not the one which insert function accepts. but I don't know how to convert these to each other.
The issue might be your usage of std::string::insert. I can't see an insert(iterator, string) version among it's numerous overloads.
You might want to call desired version by explicitly stating length of char array:
void insert (iterator p, size_t n, char c)
The problem seems to be that boost is configured for use with a different version of the compiler rather than the one you are currently using.
Could you add the details of how you compiled it as well?

using the find function from algorithm on vector

I want to use the find function from the algorithm library on a vector object. The vector object is a vector of customers, (Customer is a class I made). I first ran it and it gave me an error in stl_algo.h. I search the web for it and I searched here for it too, I found a question here about it and I ran the same code, but I still got that error.
My code is here:
Header File:
#include <string>
#include <sstream>
#include <map>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
enum Status {ACTIVE, INACTIVE};
class Customer {
private:
// ID Database class for storing customers' ids
class IdDB {
private:
friend class Customer;
// member field
static map <string, int> idList;
// member function
static int getNumber (const string &threeLetters) {
map<string, int>::iterator i = idList.find(threeLetters);
if (i == idList.end()) {
idList.insert(pair <string, int> (threeLetters, 0));
return 0;
}else{
return ++(i->second);
}
}
};
string id;
string name;
string address;
Status status;
void makeId () {
string threeLetters = name.substr(0, 3);
int idNum = IdDB::getNumber(threeLetters);
stringstream oss;
oss << threeLetters << idNum;
id = oss.str();
}
public:
Customer (const string&, const string&, const Status);
// Accessor Methods
string &getId ();
string &getName ();
string &getAddress ();
Status getStatus ();
// Mutator Methods
void setAddress (const string&);
void setStatus (const Status);
// Misc. Methods
void printStatus ();
// Equality Operator Overloading
friend bool operator == (Customer&, Customer&);
};
class CustomerDB {
private:
static vector<Customer> customersList;
public:
static void addCustomer (const Customer&);
static void deleteCustomer (Customer&);
};
Source Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <algorithm>
#include "Customer.h"
using namespace std;
map<string, int> Customer::IdDB::idList;
Customer::Customer (const string &cName, const string &cAddress, const Status cStatus) : name(cName), address(cAddress), status(cStatus) {
makeId();
}
// Accessor Methods
string &Customer::getId () { return id; }
string &Customer::getName () { return name; }
string &Customer::getAddress () { return address; }
Status Customer::getStatus () { return status; }
// Mutator Methods
void Customer::setAddress (const string &newAddress) { address = newAddress; }
void Customer::setStatus (const Status newStatus) { status = newStatus; }
// Misc. Methods
void Customer::printStatus () {
if (status == ACTIVE)
cout << "Active";
else
cout << "In-Active";
}
vector<Customer> CustomerDB::customersList;
void CustomerDB::addCustomer (const Customer &customer) {
customersList.push_back(customer);
}
void CustomerDB::deleteCustomer (Customer &customer) {
vector<Customer>::iterator i;
i = find(customersList.begin(), customersList.end(), customer); // getting error in here
}
// Equality Operator Overloading
bool operator == (Customer &cust1, Customer &cust2) {
return cust1.getId() == cust2.getId();
}
after building with Code::Blocks, I got this,
in header file stl_algo.h:
}
/// This is an overload used by find() for the RAI case.
template<typename _RandomAccessIterator, typename _Tp>
_RandomAccessIterator
__find(_RandomAccessIterator __first, _RandomAccessIterator __last,
const _Tp& __val, random_access_iterator_tag)
{
typename iterator_traits<_RandomAccessIterator>::difference_type
__trip_count = (__last - __first) >> 2;
for (; __trip_count > 0; --__trip_count)
{
if (*__first == __val) // error in here exactly getting a red block
return __first;
++__first;
if (*__first == __val)
return __first;
++__first;
if (*__first == __val)
return __first;
Thanks

You should work on your const correctness, the problem is that your equality comparator takes the arguments by non const reference, but the last argument to find is taken by const reference, which means that the compiler cannot use it there.
Incidentally, once you add the const there you will be forced to add const accessors to the data. Also, if your operator only uses the public interface there is no need to declare it as a friend
CodeBlocks may give errors about the stl files however they are not actually the errors. It shows the related stl file of your error.

Iterating through 2D vector to delete objects from memory

I have a 2D vector which contains objects.
std::vector<std::vector<List> > ListPos;
ListPos.clear();
std::vector<List> initPV;
ListPos.push_back(initPV);
List newList;
//... some code to determine where the object needs to go and vector resized to accommodate ...//
ListPos[ThisY].insert(ListPos[ThisY].begin()+ThisX, newList);
Objects are created and the vector resized as needed, my question is how can I loop through the vector and delete any objects I'm not using(given some location data such asif(![3][7]) to free up memory.
Also can I do anything with the vector to free up memory for the space that the object was using after it being deleted?
| List | List | List |
-------------------------------
| List | List | Delted | List |
-------------------------------
| Deleted | List |
So in the above representation I have a 3 row vector with up to 4 cols, so where it says deleted that would be where the position of the objects have been deleted from.
I'm guessing that once the objects had been deleted from memory that the space in the vector would just.. 'zero'?
I should note that where objects get deleted from say [2][0] I need to leave available for another object to go in its place, but cant allow [2][1] to take its place, if that makes sense. [2][1] needs to stay at [2][1]
I have tried the following (actual code)
for (std::vector<std::vector<List*> >::iterator i = Area::AreaControl.ListPos.begin(); i != Area::AreaControl.ListPos.end();++i)
{
for (std::vector<List*>::iterator j = i->begin(); j != i->end();++i)
{
if(j != Area::AreaControl.ListPos[0][0]) {
// Delete
}
}
}
But no dice :(

As you can probably tell from my code, I'm no master.. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated!
In your first code block you define a std::vector<std::vector<List> >, i.e., a vector of vectors of List and in the second block you loop over std::vector<std::vector<List*> >, i.e., a vector of vector of pointer to List. Hence, the applied iterators are different types which cannot be converted into each other.
I'd recommend to use typedefs for the inner and outer vector to ensure your types are consistent.
And remember that erasing an element by an iterator invalidates the iterator, but returns a new iterator pointing to the next element.

C++ wait problem

I have a code like this
if (pid > 0) {
// Child
} else {
// Parent
}
while (wait() > 0) {}
And there are includes
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdio>
#include <ctime>
#include <sys/types.h>
But when i try to compiile it with g++ (g++ test.cpp -o test) a have an errors:

What i'm doing wrong?
Your includes pull /usr/include/bits/waitstatus.h indirectly, which defines a union wait. Since you don't have a declaration of the wait-function, C++ sees wait() as a constructor expression. This means wait()>0 calls for an operator>(const wait &,int) which does not exist of course. GCC's diagnostics aren't really helpful here. Add sys/wait.h to fetch a valid prototype for the wait function.
wait() is defined in sys/wait.h.
But there's probably something else going on there that we can't see with the code you posted.
Try changing that to:
while (::wait() > 0) ...
to make sure you're calling the wait() function from the global namespace and not some other class or construct imported from elsewhere.
