Compiling Boost library on Mac OS

[Mazyod]

Hello guys,

I have been trying to compile the boost library, which is the first step for getting the client API to work, but it's just not working.
I have downloaded and set the machine gcc to gcc 4.8.1, and performed the

Code: Select all

./bootstrap -prefix=boost/

with the following output:

-n Building Boost.Build engine with toolset darwin...
tools/build/v2/engine/bin.macosxx86_64/b2
-n Detecting Python version...

Bootstrapping is done. To build, run:

Then, running ./b2 would throw a gazillion errors, all which seem to be related to the BOOST_PLATFORM_CONFIG:

Hi,
can this post http://smartfoxserver.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=15945 help you?

Hi,
can this post http://smartfoxserver.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=15945 help you?

Thanks MBagnati,

I read that post, and I didn't think it would be best to download and compile the boost libraries for the official website, that would take a long time researching and figuring things out. I really wanted to compile what is shipped with the C++ API. I don't understand how Mac OS is different from Linux, since I downloaded gcc 4.8.1 and compiled against that.

[MBagnati]

We try to investigate the issue to look for a solution

[Mazyod]

Congratulations on the new API! It seems to be a huge improvement over the previous build. I was wondering if you had time to look into this Mac OS compile error?

Thanks,

[Mazyod]

OK, I kind of went through hell this weekend for nothing. The answer I seeked was actually simple.

First, in order to resolve the issue, I tried to download the boost library and compile it, failed, so I decided to take a different approach. Used MacPorts, and installing the boost libraries was a snap. Now, time to create an eclipse project, went through the steps (couldn't find the deploy directory, that should be excluded) and failed horribly. First, the boost library wan't found, so I had to add /opt/local/include. Issue 1 solved. Then, there was something ambiguious about the pow() function, I had to add two colons before that. Then, the boost_guard wasn't found, I had to include the headers. Then, I finally reached the linker errors, boost_system was not found. It turns out the library is called boost_system-mt. Finally, I received a bunch of errors from the linker that made me delete the whole eclipse project.

In my last attempt to compile this on Mac, before moving to another platform, I downloaded the new 0.9.6 API and decided to use this:

Hi,
in [api_folder]/Core/BoostAsio/Unix folder, before type bootstrap.sh command, try the follow statement

Code: Select all

     chmod -R a+rwx+X ./


to set the read, write and execution permissions for all files.

and you know what?

Code: Select all

The Boost C++ Libraries were successfully built!

T^T ... Finally, that showed up. I am not sure if it was the 0.9.6 API, or the file permissions command. (Earlier, I only chmod'ed the build.sh).

I have yet to build the API library, but this is a good sign.

[Mazyod]

I ran into a new issue, that seems a lot more sane that what I have seen earlier:

Code: Select all

USER@COMPUTER SFS2X_API_Cpp_v0.9.6 $ cd Core/BoostAsio/Unix/boost/config/platform/
cygwin.hpp  linux.hpp   win32.hpp

I am missing macos.hpp, how can I generate that?

Thanks,

EDIT:

I just downloaded that from the boost website, the library is now building...

[Mazyod]

... I have reached the exact same errors using the SFS API boost library. Everything is compiled nicely, but the linker freaks out and generates a huge error:

Anyone knows how to resolve this??

It seems to have something to do with compiling using libstd++ and libc++.

[MBagnati]

It is a good news.
I think that the problem has been solved by the permission command, because API version 0.9.6 uses the same Boost Library of the previous one.

[MBagnati]

Today, in our distribution is not included macos.hpp
You can simply get it from Boost website: file is contained into folder config\platform

[MBagnati]

Seems that you have a link error about the undefined of SEP
Please look at this post viewtopic.php?f=34&t=16134 that suggests how solve it

[Mazyod]

FINALLY, I added zlib library to the linked libraries in eclipse, (adding z), and it finally built the API successfully.
I have intentionally been verbose with each and every issue I faced for future reference.



Thanks, now I am down to this small linker error. It is related to not finding the zLib compress and uncompress functions.

Thanks, that did resolve the SEP error, but I still have lots of linker errors:

Mazyod, glad you solved the problem.
Could you write a separate post describing all the steps you took to have the API compiled?
So we can make it sticky to help others.
Thanks.

[Mazyod]

Bax,

Sure thing. I'll try to do a write up real soon.

Best,

[Mazyod]

hmm... I kinda have some bad news. When I was finally able to link the API lib to the Xcode project (Mac OS project), and compiled it successfully, the examples didn't work at all. I honestly have to note that:

1 - inside the main function there is "this" being sent as a parameter, which simply puzzles me. How can a pointer to an object be inside the main function?
2 - the syntax is super verbose and hard to get right on the first try. I would like to request some ideas from the cocos2d-x project to be used (macros and typedefs) to make the development more manageable (see below).

In any case, after playing around with the example code, the project finally ran... and quit. The main function is executed and terminated quickly before I get the chance to see if the client was working or not.

This made me decide to try the project on an iOS cocos2d-x project directly, but unfortunately, I was faced with a dreadful error that the libraries are ignored because they weren't built for the target architecture. (which is not the architecture being linked (i386)).

So, I'll have to resolve these issues before I can actually write a full fledged tutorial, or make a video tutorial.
