slice2freeze std::wstring

Consider this simple ice definition:

["cpp:type:wstring"]
module syn
{
struct UserDataT
{
string username;
};
};

Genereting a Freeze Map with:

slice2freeze --dict UsersMap,int,syn::UserDataT --dict-index UsersMap,username UserMap syn.ice

This is the header generated:

#ifndef __UserMap_h__
#define __UserMap_h__

#include <Freeze/Map.h>
#include <syn.h>

#ifndef ICE_IGNORE_VERSION
# if ICE_INT_VERSION / 100 != 302
# error Ice version mismatch!
# endif
# if ICE_INT_VERSION % 100 > 50
# error Beta header file detected
# endif
# if ICE_INT_VERSION % 100 < 1
# error Ice patch level mismatch!
# endif
#endif

class UsersMapKeyCodec
{
public:

static void write(::Ice::Int, Freeze::Key&, const ::Ice::CommunicatorPtr&);
static void read(::Ice::Int&, const Freeze::Key&, const ::Ice::CommunicatorPtr&);

};

class UsersMapValueCodec
{

static void read(::syn::UserDataT&, const Freeze::Value&, const ::Ice::CommunicatorPtr&);
static const std::string& typeId();
};

class UsersMap : public Freeze::Map< ::Ice::Int, ::syn::UserDataT, UsersMapKeyCodec, UsersMapValueCodec, Freeze::IceEncodingCompare >
{

class UsernameIndex : public Freeze::MapIndex< ::std::string, UsernameIndex, Freeze::IceEncodingCompare >
{
public:

UsernameIndex(const std::string&, const Freeze::IceEncodingCompare& = Freeze::IceEncodingCompare());

static void write(const ::std::string&, Freeze::Key&, const Ice::CommunicatorPtr&);
static void read(::std::string&, const Freeze::Key&, const ::Ice::CommunicatorPtr&);

protected:

virtual void marshalKey(const Freeze::Value&, Freeze::Key&) const;
};

UsersMap(const Freeze::ConnectionPtr&, const std::string&, bool = true, const Freeze::IceEncodingCompare& = Freeze::IceEncodingCompare());

template <class _InputIterator>
UsersMap(const Freeze::ConnectionPtr& __connection, const std::string& __dbName, bool __createDb, _InputIterator __first, _InputIterator __last, const Freeze::IceEncodingCompare& __compare = Freeze::IceEncodingCompare())
: Freeze::Map< ::Ice::Int, ::syn::UserDataT, UsersMapKeyCodec, UsersMapValueCodec, Freeze::IceEncodingCompare >(__connection->getCommunicator())
{
Freeze::KeyCompareBasePtr __keyCompare = new Freeze::KeyCompare< ::Ice::Int, UsersMapKeyCodec, Freeze::IceEncodingCompare >(__compare, this->_communicator);
std::vector<Freeze::MapIndexBasePtr> __indices;
__indices.push_back(new UsernameIndex("username"));
this->_helper.reset(Freeze::MapHelper::create(__connection, __dbName, UsersMapKeyCodec::typeId(), UsersMapValueCodec::typeId(), __keyCompare, __indices, __createDb));
while(__first != __last)
{
put(*__first);
++__first;
}
}

iterator findByUsername(const ::std::string&, bool = true);
const_iterator findByUsername(const ::std::string&, bool = true) const;
iterator lowerBoundForUsername(const ::std::string&);
const_iterator lowerBoundForUsername(const ::std::string&) const;
iterator upperBoundForUsername(const ::std::string&);
const_iterator upperBoundForUsername(const ::std::string&) const;
std::pair<iterator, iterator> equalRangeForUsername(const ::std::string&);
std::pair<const_iterator, const_iterator> equalRangeForUsername(const ::std::string&) const;
int usernameCount(const ::std::string&) const;
};

As you can see for example findByUsername first parameter is mapped to std::string instead of std::wstring.

I think this is not correct, isn't it?

    Thanks for the report. We will look into this.

  • The problem is in slice2freeze sources where the function :

    string
    InputTypeToString(const TypePtr& type, bool useWstring, const StringList& metaData)

    is called every time with useWstring=false.

    Hi Paolo,

    Yes, it's definitely a bug, but it's not that easy to fix. Here is a work-around that should work well, but it also requires a small bug fix to slice2freeze.

    1) slice2freeze bug fix: on line 933 of slice2freeze/Main.cpp, insert:
    iType.metaData = dataMember->getMetaData();

    and then rebuild slice2freeze (you may need to start a full Ice build if you haven't one already)

    2) Instead or in addition to the module-level "cpp:type:wstring" metadata, add a wstring metadata to all the data members you want to index. With your example, this would be:

    ["cpp:type:wstring"]
    module syn
    {
    struct UserDataT
    {
    ["cpp:type:wstring"] string username;
    };
    };

    Please let us know how it goes!
