make fails: bin/gearadmin.cc:84:37: error: boost/program_options.hpp: No such file or directory

[Sven Nierlein]

Trying to make the 0.17 fails with:

bin/gearadmin.cc:84:37: error: boost/program_options.hpp: No such file or directory
bin/gearadmin.cc: In function 'int main(int, char**)':
bin/gearadmin.cc:99: error: 'boost' has not been declared
...

Even when configured with --disable-boost.

After installing libboost make still fails:

bin/gearadmin.o: In function `boost::program_options::basic_command_line_parser<char>::options(boost::program_options::options_description const&)':
/usr/include/boost/program_options/detail/parsers.hpp:51: undefined reference to `boost::program_options::detail::cmdline::set_options_description(boost::program_options::options_description const&)'

Testsystem is a Debian 6.

Thanks, I believe I have a fix for this by just using the boost.m4 libraries.

This should be fixed in trunk, so please try lp:gearmand and see if it works.

[Sven Nierlein (sven-nierlein)]

Thanks for your help, i checked out the latest trunk.

%> ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --disable-boost
...
configure: error: cannot find Boost headers version >= 0.0.0

Thats true, i don't have boost headers, but that shouldn't matter when using --disable-boost.

After installing the libboost1.42-dev package and doing a configure without the disable--boost i get this:
...
checking boost/program_options.hpp usability... yes
checking boost/program_options.hpp presence... yes
checking for boost/program_options.hpp... yes
checking for the Boost program_options library... no
configure: error: cannot find the flags to link with Boost program_options

[Prabagaran L (prabagaran)]

Here also we have same issue as reported by Sven Nierlein, with ./configure and with ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/ --disable-boost, as well..

We use Fedora 8-64bit on AWS.

And the error is:

Hi,

You are going to need to install boost in order to compile the latest version.

Cheers,

It did not work even after installing "libboost1.42-dev" (see the first post in this thread). Do i need anything else? Is "--disable-boost" useless then? And if boost is only needed for gearadmin, i would really like to disable it in order to keep gearman small and simple.

[jacquesh (jhullu)]

--disable-boost do nothing.
I've this error with boost disabled and lib removed

bin/gearadmin.cc:84: fatal error: boost/program_options.hpp: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type
compilation terminated.
make[1]: *** [bin/gearadmin.o] Erreur 1
make[1]: quittant le répertoire « /home/jacques/Téléchargements/gearmand-0.17 »
make: *** [all] Erreur 2

[Brian Aker (brianaker)]

Hi!

"--disable-boost" has been removed.

Only gearadmin uses boost for command line parsing at the moment, but that will change over the next couple of iterations (I've zero interest in writing/maintaing argument code).

I've not set a minimal value yet for the boost libraries, but when I do it will probably be 1.35 or later.

Cheers,

I'm still getting the same message when running ./configure :

configure: error: cannot find Boost headers version >= 0.0.0

I'm trying to compile gearmand 0.18.

[Brian Aker (brianaker)]

Hi!

I'll be releasing 0.19 here in the next day or so. It will have a bit more information that we can use to determine what exactly is going on with your compile.

Cheers,
 -Brian
