Cannot compile boost program with Codelite

Post by Durango2011 »

I have a program which is utilizing the boost library, however when I try building my code with Codelite I am getting the following errors:

Code: Select all

/bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/make -j4 -e -f  Makefile'
----------Building project:[ SecureObjectStoreServer - Debug ]----------
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/dizzy/Programming/C++/SecureObjectStore/SecureObjectStoreServer'
/usr/bin/g++-5 -o ./Debug/SecureObjectStoreServer @"SecureObjectStoreServer.txt" -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/  -L.
./Debug/main.cpp.o: In function `__static_initialization_and_destruction_0(int, int)':
I checked to find the location of the boost library needed and found that the path is /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_system.so

I then tried to add this within the build settings in Codelite so that I can properly compile the program. The menu is settings->build settings->Compilers tab.

Then I select the Advanced tab and enter the following values under the Global Paths section: Include Path: /usr/include/boost/

Libraries Path: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/

I did not change anything else in settings.

However, it does not seem to fix this issue.

I am able to properly compile boost programs via command line using gcc and adding the -lboost_system flag. This works fine so the issue really is configuring Codelite to do this.

I searched online for help on this but I did not find anything that fixes my issue.

I am running Codelite v.9.1.0. on Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial)

Thanks for any suggestions! :)

Did you truncate the build log?
It seems missing some information
Make sure you have read the HOW TO POST thread

Sorry about that for some reason I missed full message.

Here it is:

From the link line:
/usr/bin/g++-5 -o ./Debug/SecureObjectStoreServer @"SecureObjectStoreServer.txt" -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ -L.
It seems you are missing the boost libraries.

Add the proper boost libraries from: project settings->linker->libraries

Ty so much I was looking under different settings (build settings->compiler->linker options), which did not seem to work.
Now it's working :)
