| 356 | | * '''Description:''' Generic explicit conversion between unrelated types. |
| 357 | | |
| 358 | | The template function convert_to allows to convert a source type to a target type, using argument dependent lookup to select a specialized convert_to function if available. If no specialized convert_to function is available, boost::conversion::convert_to is used. |
| 359 | | |
| 360 | | The generic convert_to function requires that the elements to be converted are assignable and copy constructible. It is implemented using the Target copy construction from a Source or the Source conversion operator Target - this is sometimes unavailable. |
| 361 | | |
| 362 | | For standard types, we can not add a specialized convert_to function on the namespace std. The alternative to using argument dependent lookup in this situation is to provide a template specialization of boost::conversion::convert_to for every pair of standard types that requires a specialized convert_to. |
| 363 | | |
| 364 | | Boost.Conversion provides: |
| 365 | | |
| 366 | | * a generic convert_to function which can be specialized by the user to make explicit conversion between unrelated types. |
| 367 | | * a generic assign_to function which can be specialized by the user to make explicit assignation between unrelated types. |
| 368 | | * a generic mca/tie function returning a wrapper which replace assignments by a call to assign_to and conversion operators by a call convert_to. |
| 369 | | * a generic convert_to_via function which convert a type From to another To using a temporary one Via. |
| 370 | | * a generic pack function used to pack Source and target constructor arguments. |
| 371 | | * conversion between std::complex of explicitly convertible types. |
| 372 | | * conversion between std::pair of explicitly convertible types. |
| 373 | | * conversion between boost::optional of explicitly convertible types. |
| 374 | | * conversion between boost::rational of explicitly convertible types. |

| 635 | | * thread decorator: thread_decorator allows to define setup/cleanup functions which will be called only once by thread: setup before the thread function and cleanup at thread exit. |
| 636 | | * thread_decorator can now decorate a nullary function in addition to a callable function |
| 637 | | * thread specific shared pointer: this is an extension of the thread_specific_ptr providing access to this thread specific context from other threads. As it is shared the stored pointer is a shared_ptr instead of a raw one. |
| 638 | | * thread keep alive mechanism: this mechanism allows to detect threads that do not prove that they are alive by calling to the keep_alive_point regularly. When a thread is declared dead a user provided function is called, which by default will abort the program. |
| 639 | | * thread tuple: defines a thread group where the number of threads is know statically and the threads are created at construction time. |
| 640 | | * set_once: a synchronizer that allows to set a variable only once, notifying to the variable value to whatever is waiting for that. |
| 641 | | * thread_tuple_once: an extension of the boost::thread_tuple which allows to join the thread finishing the first, using for that the set_once synchronizer. |
