updating GCC to 4.7 breaks boost 1.49

phoenixRO · 2012-04-04 13:25:38

I have just updated gcc (and libc) to 4.7.0 and whenever I try to compile something against boost 1.49 I get dozens of linker errors. I noticed that it is a known bug and that boost should be recompiled with the new compiler.

In the meantime, is there any way I could revert gcc to 4.6.x using pacman?

Thanks!

What linker errors are you getting? I'm linking against boost system and boost thread just fine with gcc 4.7.0.

Also, apparently g++ 4.7.0 hits hard on the "protected" keyword for classes. Do you have any idea what could be done? thanks!

I hear a boost rebuild is on its way. If you can not wait, rebuild it yourself using ABS.

@krigun: I believe only static linking is affected.

Sorry - can't help you on this one. Some of the errors GCC spits out when using the boost libraries are hardcore. Often I just sit there, staring at the screen with glazed eyes trying to make out if I forgot a semicolon, or if there is something wrong with the template argument list, or if I'm missing a header, or ... It's often impossible to make this out by the error alone, which is a shame.

Have not had any problems here, what exactly is gcc complaining about?

Ok, thanks! Been linking with the shared libraries, and everything has been fine.

I think there is something broken at linking stage (linker scripts or something)?

Is there any other way to fix this?

Svenstaro · 2012-04-10 23:52:33

Allan, these are the same issues I reported initially. How can we fix this?

Allan · 2012-04-11 01:24:23

The errors are different....

These errors in MyGUI:

ColourPanel.cpp:(.text._ZN5MyGUI9SingletonINS_13LayoutManagerEE11getInstanceEv[_ZN5MyGUI9SingletonINS_13LayoutManagerEE11getInstanceEv]+0x3): undefined reference to `MyGUI::Singleton<MyGUI::LayoutManager>::msInstance'

are purely MyGUI linking issues. They need to be fixed there.

The errors seen when building OpenMW will be likely fixed when MyGUI gets rebuilt... (as they are in libMyGUI.OgrePlatform.a).

The original errors in this thread involving libboost.a should be all fixed.

Svenstaro · 2012-04-14 17:11:58

I fixed this crap with a hack. See release -2.
