compilation error due to boost libraries update

[Piotr]

Hi,
recently I upgraded boost libs to 1.50+ which resulted in compilation error:
(ember branch - ogre_1_8)

I attached the config.log file in case of need.

This seems to be a new issue with boost 1.50. http://www.ogre3d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=71037
Ember should probably also perform detection and inclusion of libboost_system for versions of boost > 1.50. I'll take a closer look.

[Erik Ogenvik (erik-ogenvik)]

I've now added a fix which I think should work to the boost_1_50_0 branch (which is based on the ogre_1_8 branch). Could you test and see if it fixes your issue?

[Piotr (elminister)]

The same error occured (exactly the same).

[Erik Ogenvik (erik-ogenvik)]

Could you post the result of config.log and the Makefile which is generated in the root directory?

[Piotr (elminister)]

config.log

[Erik Ogenvik (erik-ogenvik)]

I've pushed another commit. Can you try it? If it fails, could you send me config.log again?

[Erik Ogenvik (erik-ogenvik)]

Ok, I've pushed yet another fix. Could you take a look?

[Piotr (elminister)]

Success , :D
It's working! Thank you Erik!

[Erik Ogenvik (erik-ogenvik)]

I've now added the patch to the ogre_1_8 branch and removed the boost_1_50_0 branch.

[Erik Ogenvik (erik-ogenvik)]

Reopened as this still seems to affect WebEmber.

[Erik Ogenvik (erik-ogenvik)]

Closing again as I misunderstood the reported issue.
