Hi experts, The problem can be reproduced easily,

uname -a
HP-UX B.11.23 U ia64

$gcc -v
gcc version 4.6.3 (GCC)

$cat thread.cpp

<

#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/thread.hpp>
using namespace std;


class BankAccount;

BankAccount JoesAccount;

void bankAgent()
{
    for (int i =10; i>0; --i) {
        //...
        JoesAccount.Deposit(500);
        //...
    }
}

void Joe() {
    for (int i =10; i>0; --i) {
        //...
        int myPocket = JoesAccount.Withdraw(100);
        std::cout << myPocket << std::endl;
        //...
    }
}

int main() {
    //...
    boost::thread thread1(bankAgent); // start concurrent execution of bankAgent
    boost::thread thread2(Joe); // start concurrent execution of Joe
    thread1.join();
    thread2.join();
    return 0;
}

HI,

please could you check the boost/chrono/config.hpp file.

It contains the following

# if defined( BOOST_CHRONO_WINDOWS_API )
#   ifndef UNDER_CE
#     define BOOST_CHRONO_HAS_PROCESS_CLOCKS
#   endif
#   define BOOST_CHRONO_HAS_CLOCK_STEADY
#   define BOOST_CHRONO_HAS_THREAD_CLOCK
#   define BOOST_CHRONO_THREAD_CLOCK_IS_STEADY true
# endif

# if defined( BOOST_CHRONO_MAC_API )
#   define BOOST_CHRONO_HAS_PROCESS_CLOCKS
#   define BOOST_CHRONO_HAS_CLOCK_STEADY
#   define BOOST_CHRONO_THREAD_CLOCK_IS_STEADY true
# endif

# if defined( BOOST_CHRONO_POSIX_API )
#   define BOOST_CHRONO_HAS_PROCESS_CLOCKS
#   include <time.h>  //to check for CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC and _POSIX_THREAD_CPUTIME
#   if defined(CLOCK_MONOTONIC)
#      define BOOST_CHRONO_HAS_CLOCK_STEADY
#   endif

Does your platform meets the condition for which BOOST_CHRONO_HAS_CLOCK_STEADY is defined?

I tested the micro, it is NOT defined under hp-ux ia 11.23, hp-ux pa 11.11, and solaris 8/9. But is defined under AIX 5.2.

$uname -a HP-UX machinename B.11.23 U ia64 unlimited-user license

$cat micro.cpp #include <string> #include <iostream> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <boost/chrono/config.hpp> using namespace std;

int main() { #ifdef BOOST_CHRONO_HAS_CLOCK_STEADY

printf("boost_chrono_has_clock_steady is defined!\n");

#else

printf("boost_chrono_has_clock_steady is not defined!\n");

#endif

return 0;

}

$g++ -Iboost_1_55_0 -o micro micro.cpp

$./micro boost_chrono_has_clock_steady is not defined!

Thanks.

I was requesting you to analyze why it is not defined. It is because CLOCK_MONOTONIC is not defined? If yes, could you find if there is something like that?

[anonymous]

Hi Viboes, You are right, CLOCK_MONOTONIC is not defined. I have attached /usr/include/time.h and /usr/include/sys/time.h files. Thanks.
