The following code fails to compile with 1.58 while it was compiling with 1.46. I guess it's a type conversion issue, but I can't make it right.
my code
#include <boost/filesystem.hpp>
#include <boost/range.hpp>
#include <boost/range/algorithm.hpp>
#include <boost/range/adaptors.hpp>
#include <vector>
using namespace boost;
using namespace filesystem;
using namespace adaptors;
int main(int argc, char ** argv)
{
recursive_directory_iterator beg = recursive_directory_iterator(".");
recursive_directory_iterator end = recursive_directory_iterator();
iterator_range<recursive_directory_iterator> files =
make_iterator_range(beg, end);
std::function<bool (path const & path)> fileFilter =
[](path const & path) -> bool {
return is_regular_file(path);
};
std::vector<path> paths;
copy(files | filtered(fileFilter), std::back_inserter(paths));
// works:
//copy(files, std::back_inserter(paths));
// also works:
//for(recursive_directory_iterator it = beg; it != end; ++it){
// if(fileFilter(*it)){
// paths.push_back(*it);
// }
//}
}
Error message (VS2010)
Error 1 error C2664: 'boost::filesystem::recursive_directory_iterator::recursive_directory_iterator(const boost::filesystem::path &,boost::filesystem::symlink_option::enum_type)' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'boost::iterators::detail::postfix_increment_proxy' to 'const boost::filesystem::path &' [...]\boost\1.58.0_32\include\boost-1_58\boost\range\concepts.hpp 201 1 [...]
Can anyone help ?
Edit
This seems to be a bug introduced somewhere since Boost 1.55. Using boost 1.55 this compiles ok.
It could be this bug: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/10989
boost_1_57_0/boost/concept_check.hpp|210 col 13| error: conversion from ‘boost::iterators::single_pass_traversal_tag’ to non-scalar type ‘boost::iterators::forward_traversal_tag’ requested
The filtered
adaptor requires the input to be forward_traversal
tag. But recursive_directory_iterator
only promises single_pass_traversal
tag:
BOOST_RANGE_CONCEPT_ASSERT((
Convertible<
BOOST_DEDUCED_TYPENAME ForwardIteratorConcept::traversal_category,
forward_traversal_tag
>));
You can disable concept checks for now: -DBOOST_RANGE_ENABLE_CONCEPT_ASSERT=0
:
#include <boost/filesystem.hpp>
#include <boost/range.hpp>
#include <boost/range/algorithm.hpp>
#include <boost/range/adaptors.hpp>
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
namespace fs = boost::filesystem;
using namespace boost::adaptors;
int main() {
fs::recursive_directory_iterator beg("."), end;
auto fileFilter = [](fs::path const & path) { return is_regular_file(path); };
std::vector<fs::path> paths;
copy(boost::make_iterator_range(beg, end) | filtered(fileFilter), std::back_inserter(paths));
for(auto& p : paths)
std::cout << p << "\n";
}
Prints
"./main.cpp"
"./a.out"
