Foreach
In C++, writing a loop that iterates over a sequence is tedious. We can either use iterators, which requires a considerable amount of boiler-plate, or we can use the std::for_each() algorithm and move our loop body into a predicate, which requires no less boiler-plate and forces us to move our logic far from where it will be used. In contrast, some other languages, like Perl, provide a dedicated "foreach" construct that automates this process. BOOST_FOREACH is just such a construct for C++. It iterates over sequences for us, freeing us from having to deal directly with iterators or write predicates.

Format
The format library provides a class for formatting arguments according to a format-string, as does printf, but with two major differences: format sends the arguments to an internal stream, and so is entirely type-safe and naturally supports all user-defined types; the ellipsis (...) can not be used correctly in the strongly typed context of format, and thus the function call with arbitrary arguments is replaced by successive calls to an argument feeding operator%.

Math
Boost.Math includes several contributions in the domain of mathematics: The Greatest Common Divisor and Least Common Multiple library provides run-time and compile-time evaluation of the greatest common divisor (GCD) or least common multiple (LCM) of two integers. The Special Functions library currently provides eight templated special functions, in namespace boost. The Complex Number Inverse Trigonometric Functions are the inverses of trigonometric functions currently present in the C++ standard. Quaternions are a relative of complex numbers often used to parameterise rotations in three dimentional space. Octonions, like quaternions, are a relative of complex numbers.

oost是一个准标准库,相当于STL的延续和扩充,它的设计理念和STL比较接近,都是利用泛型让复用达到最大化。不过对比STL,boost更加实用。STL集中在算法部分,而boost包含了不少工具类,可以完成比较具体的工作。

 

    boost主要包含一下几个大类:字符串及文本处理、容器、迭代子(Iterator)、算法、函数对象和高阶编程、泛型编程、模板元编程、预处理元编程、并发编程、数学相关、纠错和测试、数据结构、输入/输出、跨语言支持、内存相关、语法分析、杂项。 有一些库是跨类别包含的,就是既属于这个类别又属于那个类别。

 

    在文本处理部分,conversion/lexcial_cast类用于“用C++”的方法实现数字类型和字符串之间的转换。 主要是替代C标准库中的 atoi、 itoa之类的函数。当然其中一个最大的好处就是支持泛型了。

 

    format库提供了对流的“printf-like”功能。printf里使用%d、%s等等的参数做替换的方法在很多情况下还是非常方便的,STL的iostream则缺乏这样的功能。format为stream增加了这个功能,并且功能比原始的printf更强。

 

    regex,这个不多说了,正则表达式库。如果需要做字符串分析的人就会理解正则表达式有多么有用了。

 

    spirit,这个是做LL分析的框架,可以根据EBNF规则对文件进行分析。(不要告诉我不知道什么是EBNF)。做编译器的可能会用到。一般人不太用的到。

 

    tokenizer库。我以前经常在CSDN上看到有人问怎么把一个字符串按逗号分割成字符串数组。也许有些人很羡慕VB的split函数。现在,boost的tokenizer也有相同的功能了,如果我没记错的话,这个tokenizer还支持正则表达式,是不是很爽?

 

    array: 提供了常量大小的数组的一个包装,喜欢用数组但是苦恼数组定位、确定数组大小等功能的人这下开心了。

 

    dynamic_bitset,动态分配大小的bitset,我们知道STL里有个bitset,为位运算提供了不少方便。可惜它的大小需要在编译期指定。现在好了,运行期动态分配大小的bitset来了。

 

    graph。提供了图的容器和相关算法。我还没有在程序中用到过图,需要用的人可以看看。

 

    multi_array提供了对多维数组的封装,应该还是比较有用的。

 

    并发编程里只有一个库,thread,提供了一个可移植的线程库,不过在Windows平台上我感觉用处不大。因为它是基于Posix线程的,在Windows里对Posix的支持不是很好。

 

    接下来的 数学和数值 类里,包含了很多数值处理方面的类库,数学类我也不太熟,不过这里有几个类还是很有用的,比如rational分数类,random随机数类,等等。

 

    static_assert,提供了编译器的assert功能。

 

    test库,一个单元测试框架,非常不错。

 

    concept_check提供了泛型编程时,对泛型量的一点检查,不是很完善,不过比没有好。

 

    数据类型类any,一个安全的可以包含不同对象的类。把它作为容器的元素类型,那么这个容器就可以包含不同类型的元素。比用void *要安全。

 

    compressed_pair,跟STL里的pair差不多。不过对空元素做了优化。

 

    tuple,呵呵,也许是某些人梦寐以求的东西。可以让函数返回多个值。

 

    跨语言支持:Python,呵呵,好东东啊,可以将C++的类和函数映射给python使用。以下为几个CSDN上的关于boost.python的中文资料:http://dev.csdn.net/article/19/19828.shtm,http://dev.csdn.net/article/19/19829.shtm,http://dev.csdn.net/article/19/19830.shtm,http://dev.csdn.net/article/19/19831.shtm

    pool:内存池,呵呵,不用害怕频繁分配释放内存导致内存碎片,也不用自己辛辛苦苦自己实现了。

 

    smart_ptr:智能指针,这下不用担心内存泄漏的问题了吧。不过,C++里的智能指针都还不是十全十美的,用的时候小心点了,不要做太技巧性的操作了。

 

    date_time,这个是平台、类库无关的实现,如果程序需要跨平台,可以考虑用这个。

 

     timer,提供了一个计时器,虽然不是Windows里那种基于消息的计时器,不过据说可以用来测量语句执行时间。

 

     uitlity里提供了一个noncopyable类,可以实现“无法复制”的类。很多情况下,我们需要避免一个类被复制,比如代表文件句柄的类,文件句柄如果被两个实例共享,操作上会有很多问题,而且语义上也说不过去。一般的避免实例复制的方法是把拷贝构造和operator=私有化,现在只要继承一下这个类就可以了,清晰了很多。

 

     value_initialized:数值初始化,可以保证声明的对象都被明确的初始化,不过这个真的实用吗?似乎写这个比直接写初始化还累。呵呵,仁者见仁了。

 

     这里面除了regex、python和test需要编译出库才能用,其他的大部分都可以直接源代码应用,比较方便。其实这些库使用都不难。最主要的原因是有些库的使用需要有相关的背景知识,比如元编程、STL、泛型编程等等。

  btw: 还有 Graph 库,用于图数据的处理
