Checking for boost >= 1.35... no

GNU Radio

Hi All,

i tried to compile gnuradio from trunk(2009.Jan.28) and
got Problems with the boost Package.
My System is openSuse 11.1.

The following Message appears:
################################################################################
checking for boost >= 1.35… no

configure: error: we could not detect the boost libraries (version 1.35
or
higher).

If you are sure you have boost installed, then check your version number
looking
in <boost/version.hpp>.
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.92103 (%build)

Wherfore do i need Boost ?
I tried to use the Option <–with-boost=/usr/include/boost> but without
success.
I installed boost and boost-devel !
Do you have further instructions for me?

To compile is used the following Option:
./configure --enable-gr-wxgui --enable-grc --enable-usrp
–enable-gr-usrp --enable-gr-audio-alsa --enable-gnuradio-examples
–enable-gnuradio-core --enable-gr-audio-oss

I installed the Package <gcc-c++> and solve this Problem,
but no i am getting this:
checking whether the boost::thread includes are available… yes
configure: error: Could not link against libboost_thread!

Anyone has an idea ?

Markus:

In the root directory of the trunk, there is a README file that looks
suspiciously like it will be the answer to your question. (as in
README.building-boost)

Good luck
Bob

I am using the boost packages of the standard openSUSE 11.1 repository,
so
in general, it should work.

These are the packages I have installed from boost (according to “zypper
se -i boost”):
S | Name | Summary
| Type
–±-------------------------------±----------------------------------------±-------
i | boost-devel | Development package for Boost C++
| package
i | boost-license | Boost License
| package
i | libboost_date_time1_36_0 | Boost::Date.Time Runtime libraries
| package
i | libboost_filesystem1_36_0 | Boost::Filesystem Runtime Libraries
| package
i | libboost_graph1_36_0 | Boost::Graph Runtime Libraries
| package
i | libboost_iostreams1_36_0 | Boost::IOStreams Runtime Libraries
| package
i | libboost_math1_36_0 | Boost::Math Runtime Libraries

Have you installed libboost_thread1_36_0 (shoud be a dependency of
boost-devel, anyway, so most probably, yes).

To get some more info from configure, have a look into config.log,
search
for boost::thread.

Stefan

Boost used to present a problem for me as well, but since I began to use
the “–with-boost-libdir”- flag (or what was it? Check with “configure
–help”) while configuring gnuradio it sorted itself out. This actually
requires one to know where boosts libraries are located… I think
“find” or “slocate” are good candidates for finding that out.

Hopes this gets you going.

Thanks for your reply.

I removed the Option <–with-boost=/usr/include/boost> and
solved the Problem. So my whole Options i used to compile
was:
./configure --enable-gr-wxgui --enable-grc --enable-usrp
–enable-gr-usrp --enable-gr-audio-alsa --enable-gnuradio-examples
–enable-gnuradio-core --enable-gr-audio-oss

Thats it. :slight_smile:
