Cannot build with Boost 1.76 on macOs Catalina

[cidus]

I was following this zigbee2mqtt tutorial https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/information/flashing_the_cc2531.html

brew info boost boost: stable 1.76.0 (bottled), HEAD Collection of portable C++ source libraries https://www.boost.org/

./configure checking for Boost's header version... 1_76 checking for the toolset name used by Boost for g++... xgcc42 -xgcc checking for boost/program_options.hpp... yes checking for the Boost program_options library... yes checking for boost/system/error_code.hpp... yes checking for the Boost system library... (cached) yes checking for boost/regex.hpp... yes checking for the Boost regex library... no configure: error: cannot find the flags to link with Boost regex

After removing boost and installing [email protected], ./configure worked

I'm having the same issue with Big Sur 11.5.1, but unfortunately I can't downgrade to @1.60 ...

Error: [email protected] has been disabled because it is a versioned formula!

[cidus]

You can edit de brew formula and disable the warning.

brew edit [email protected]

Thanks! I tried that with great hope, installed 1.60, but am still getting the failure at the same point.

[cidus]

Be sure to

brew link [email protected]

before compiling, or removing 1.76 prior to installing 1.60

Finally got it to work, thanks for your help!

Unfortunately [email protected] was removed https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/84434 So this solution does not work any more.

Solution

CC=/usr/bin/clang \
CXX=/usr/bin/clang++ \
CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include \
LDFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include \
 ./bootstrap

CC=/usr/bin/clang \
CXX=/usr/bin/clang++ \
CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include \
CXXFLAGS="-std=c++0x" \
LDFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -lboost_system" \
LIBUSB_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include/libusb-1.0 \
LIBUSB_LIBS="-L/usr/local/lib -lusb-1.0" \
 ./configure

CC=/usr/bin/clang
CXX=/usr/bin/clang++
CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include
LDFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include
./bootstrap

When running the above i get: ./bootstrap autoreconf: export WARNINGS= autoreconf: Entering directory '.' autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext autoreconf: running: aclocal --force -I m4 autoreconf: configure.ac: tracing autoreconf: running: glibtoolize --copy --force glibtoolize: error: One of these is required: glibtoolize: gm4 gnum4 m4 glibtoolize: error: Please install GNU M4, or 'export M4=/path/to/gnu/m4'. autoreconf: error: glibtoolize failed with exit status: 1

m4 is installed: Warning: m4 1.4.19 is already installed and up-to-date.

[pahanini]

May be brew install m4 will help

C=/usr/bin/clang
CXX=/usr/bin/clang++
CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include
CXXFLAGS="-std=c++0x"
LDFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -lboost_system"
LIBUSB_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include/libusb-1.0
LIBUSB_LIBS="-L/usr/local/lib -lusb-1.0"
./configure

This did not work for me. Both on MacOS Mojave and Monterey. I got the same boost error as before.

[pahanini]

I've tried with Monterey 12.1 (21C52) and still works fine for me. Make sure you have right env variables, for example replace last line with env && ./configure

Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to work anymore on M1 based MacBook Pro. On M1 Homebrew installs stuff to /opt/homebrew and I just wasn't able to make it find boost even though it's installed. I may be missing something silly as I'm not really experienced with C/C++ compiling. I've tried following:

# This executes without issues
CC=/usr/bin/clang \
CXX=/usr/bin/clang++ \
CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/include \
LDFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/include \
 ./bootstrap

# This fails
CC=/usr/bin/clang \
CXX=/usr/bin/clang++ \
CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/include \
CXXFLAGS="-std=c++0x" \
LDFLAGS="-I/opt/homebrew/include/boost -lboost_system" \
LIBUSB_CFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/include/libusb-1.0 \
LIBUSB_LIBS="-L/opt/homebrew/lib -lusb-1.0" \
 ./configure

Configure in this case fails with configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables. The config.log file points out:

configure:4255: /usr/bin/clang  -I/opt/homebrew/include -I/opt/homebrew/include/boost -lboost_system conftest.c  >&5
ld: library not found for -lboost_system
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

I've tried /opt/homebrew/include instead but it fails with same error. However, /opt/homebrew/include/boost does exist and contains bunch of *.hpp files so I guess I just don't know how to point the linker to proper place to look for it.

@xaralis I managed to build it by changing LDFLAGS to

LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/Cellar/boost/1.78.0_1/lib/" \

@xaralis I managed to build it by changing LDFLAGS to

LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/Cellar/boost/1.78.0_1/lib/" \

That worked for me. Thanks!

the completed command I used

CC=/usr/bin/clang \
CXX=/usr/bin/clang++ \
CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/include \
CXXFLAGS="-std=c++0x" \
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/Cellar/boost/1.78.0_1/lib/" \
LIBUSB_CFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/include/libusb-1.0 \
LIBUSB_LIBS="-L/opt/homebrew/lib -lusb-1.0" \
 ./configure

Thanks to @PaoloConte working for me on mac m1 monterey

brew install boost libboost-all-dev libboost-test-dev autoconf automake libusb pkgconfig libtool

M1 Sonoma 14.3:

brew reinstall [email protected]

And then

CC=/usr/bin/clang \
CXX=/usr/bin/clang++ \
CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/include \
CXXFLAGS="-std=c++0x" \
LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/Cellar/[email protected]/1.76.0_4/lib/" \
LIBUSB_CFLAGS=-I/opt/homebrew/include/libusb-1.0 \
LIBUSB_LIBS="-L/opt/homebrew/lib -lusb-1.0" \
 ./configure

But when I run make then this happens:

ld: Undefined symbols:
  boost::filesystem::detail::path_algorithms::extension_v3(boost::filesystem::path const&), referenced from:
      option_extract_file_info(std::__1::basic_string<char, std::__1::char_traits<char>, std::__1::allocator<char>> const&, OptionFileInfo&, bool) in read_target.o
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Or now this:

src/usb/usb_device.h:14:10: fatal error: 'libusb-1.0/libusb.h' file not found

Dunno if I got further of back :D
