workaround to adapt filesystem vs path for use with file_descriptor and mapped_file

Wed, 02 Mar 2011 21:07:53 GMT

The previously attached filesystem_v3_path_adapter.hpp file allows boost filesystem V3 path to be used with file_descriptor* and mapped_file* classes. I've tested this on Windows MSVC8 & Mac XCode 3.1.2/gcc 4.0.1 with utf8 paths. On windows it makes the wide CreateFileW interface accessible for opening unicode path'd files. Example usage:

#include <boost/iostreams/device/mapped_file.hpp> #include <boost/iostreams/filesystem_v3_path_adapter.hpp>

...

boost::filesystem::path p(...);

namespace io = boost::iostreams;

io::mapped_file_source mf_src(io::filesystem_v3_path_adapter(p));

...

another way adding boost::filesystem v3 support

zhuo.qiang@… — Wed, 01 Jun 2011 07:18:16 GMT

Another way for adding Filesystem v3 support is to make boost::iostreams::detail::path be constructable from boost::filesystem3::path

See the attachment for the patch.

(In [72382]) Iostreams: Support filesystem3 paths. Refs #4485.

Based on Zhuo Qiang's patch with added tests and support for operator=.

I also used codecvt_type to detect filesystem3::path instead of string_type. Using string_type made filesystem2::path ambiguous because it has both string_type and external_string_type members.

The member types are a bit arbitrary, but a more precise distinction would probably also be more expensive.
