#5 Compilation Error (Ibex AMD64)

[Bernardo Kuri N.]

Hello Tim,

Here is my current compilation error using the latest SVN revision (268) as you requested:

-------------------

[ 57%] Building CXX object libGizmod/CMakeFiles/Gizmod.dir/GizmoEventCPUUsage.o
In file included from /home/bk/bin/gizmod/gizmod3/libGizmod/GizmoEventCPUUsage.hpp:43,

-------------------

Let me know if there's anything else that you would like me to try!

[Christopher Peplin]

I can confirm this same bug. I followed Tim's request at Launchpad (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gizmod/+bug/293082) to compile from SVN, and I received this same error. Looks like there's a problem with boost, as I've seen this same bug reported elsewhere (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=502136).

[Tim Burrell]

Hrmm... what version of boost do you have installed?

[Tim Burrell]

Wow... I feel bad for you amd64 people. First a bug with boost 1.34, and now a new different bug with 1.35. This might suck but does anyone feel like trying 1.36 or 1.37?

I found 1.36 ppa debs here: https://launchpad.net/~rjmyst3/+archive

I think 1.37 would need be installed from source.

[Christopher Peplin]

I was using boost 1.35, from the intrepid repo. I upgraded these packages from that PPA to go to boost 1.36:

libboost-date-time1.36.0 libboost-system1.36.0 libboost-filesystem1.36.0 libboost-thread1.36.0 libboost-wave1.36.0 libboost-system-dev libboost-wave-dev libboost-filesystem-dev
libboost-thread-dev libboost-test1.36.0 libboost-test-dev libboost-signals1.36.0 libboost-signals-dev libboost-serialization-dev libboost-regex1.36.0 libboost-regex-dev
libboost-python1.36.0 libboost-python-dev libboost-program-options1.36.0 libboost-program-options-dev libboost-iostreams1.36.0 libboost-iostreams-dev libboost-graph-dev
libboost-date-time-dev libboost-dev libboost-graph1.36.0 libboost-serialization1.36.0

Now, compilation gets past the original bug in serialization...but stops here, in Gizmod code:

I made three changes to make rev268 compile with boost 1.36:
Line 1262: exception to std::exception
Line 1451: exception to std::exception
Line 1463: exception to std::exception
Line 1567: iter->leaf() to iter->path().leaf()
Line 2191: iter->leaf() to iter->path().leaf()
Line 2193: iter->leaf() to iter->path().leaf()

It compiled, and Gizmod starts up fine when i run: $ gizmod/gizmod from the build/release folder.

[Christopher Peplin]

Now that I look closer, I'm not sure if I was using boost 1.34 or 1.35 - both seem to be available in the Intrepid repo, with 1.34 being the default.

[Tim Burrell]

Thanks a bunch for looking into this peplin.

SVN is now at r289, and now compiles only with boost >= 1.36.

If it's okay with you Peplink, here's the link to the deb you posted on launchpad: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19514290/gizmod-wboost136_amd64.deb

[Tim Burrell]

Sorry, Peplin I meant, not Peplink :).

[Tim Burrell]

Just to clarify:

For AMD64 Ibex users Boost 1.36 is now needed, and an SVN compile. I'm still looking into getting a backport. Will update as I hear more info from Ubuntu MOTUs.

Thanks everyone for helping in tracking this down!

[Christopher Peplin]

For anyone trying that deb, you will need to create a symlink for libGizmod like this:

$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libGizmod.so.3.4.0 /usr/lib/libGizmod.so.3

Not sure what I did wrong there, but this will fix it.

[Bernardo Kuri N.]

Upgrading to Jaunty x64 solved the issue for me. I'm finally able to use gizmod again!
