Linking Boost Libraries

GNU Radio

Hi,

I am trying to measure the execution time of a for loop in a block and
am
trying to use boost::chrono class to do it. However, when I build the
block I get:

Scanning dependencies of target gnuradio-modtest
[ 5%] Building CXX object
lib/CMakeFiles/gnuradio-modtest.dir/passthrough_impl.cc.o
Linking CXX shared library libgnuradio-modtest.dylib

std::vector<void const*, std::allocator<void const*> >&,

std::allocator<void*> >&)in passthrough_impl.cc.o

make[2]: *** [lib/libgnuradio-modtest.dylib] Error 1
make[1]: *** [lib/CMakeFiles/gnuradio-modtest.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

I am assuming it is because I need to tell cmake to link against
libboost_chrono? In my CMakeCache.txt, the boost library paths are set
to
the correct locations:

//Path to a file.
Boost_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH=/opt/local/include

//Boost library directory
Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS:FILEPATH=/opt/local/lib

How do I tell cmake to link against libbboost_chrono?

Tahnks,
Jeff

Look for the find_package(Boost… line. There is a list of required
libraries, you should add chrono to this list.

Hi Josh,

Thanks! That worked.
