[SOLVED] undefined reference to 'boost::program_options::abstrac_variables_map::operator'

[gaetan]

Hi, I’m trying to build sofa on a cluster. The following dependencies are already installed :
– cmake v3.5.2
– gcc v7.3.0
– boost v1.58.0.

I downloaded the sources of v19.06, configured and generated without any problem. When I try to make, I have the following error :

[  5%] Linking CXX shared library ../../../lib/libSofaHelper.so
CMakeFiles/SofaHelper.dir/ArgumentParser.cpp.o: In function

Any help on this issue would be welcomed,

Thank you,

Hi @gaetan

Sorry for being late (I was sick these days!).
The error appears to be really strange to me, but I found this by googling your error.
Can you give it a try and add:

add_compile_definitions(_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0)

Best,

Hugo

Hi @hugo,

I was myself in vacations last week and hope you feel better ! I tried this morning your solution and it works quite well.

Because I’m using cmake v3.5, the command is a bit different :
add_definitions(-D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0)

add_compile_definitions(_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0) may work for cmake 3.12 and older.

Thank you very much for your help,

Gaetan

Great that it worked!
Thanks for the feedback!
