fatal error: 'typeinfo' file not found

[jhgoebbert]

Description

ITK includes typeinfo in itkMacro.h, which is a C++ header file, but compiles part of its code with a C compiler. This leads to the following error: #include <..>Modules/Core/Common/include/itkMacro.h:45:10: fatal error: 'typeinfo' file not found

Steps to Reproduce

Use CentOS Compile ITK

Expected behavior

No error, even when LC_ALL is not set as it is the case for CentOS

Actual behavior

This error only occurs on CentOS 7.x.

Reproducibility

100% on CentOS

Versions

ITK 5

Environment

CentOS

Additional Information

Work-Around: It can be avoided by setting LC_ALL=C before building.

Which part is compiled with a C compiler? All of ITK should use C++ for the compiled parts that depend upon itkMacro.h.

This issue seems to be a problem for some already before as I found the workaround here:

Perhaps we should check for locale environmental variables on Linux and warn if not are set? Or ...

Seeing that with 4.13.1 but not with 4.13.0
