Installing on Linux Server about least_asymmetry HOT 5 CLOSED

I would like to amend my issue. It's worse than previously stated.

I was able to get least_asymmetry to install on 1 of 3 linux servers using cpp_args = ['-std=c++11']; but, when using even the simplest example -- from LA's github main page -- python (v2 and v3) crashes with final error: Aborted (core dumped)

I suspect that this has to do with version mismatching; it's possibly because I dropped '-stdlib=libc++' from the cpp_args

from least_asymmetry.

I too have discovered this issue on a particular linux setup. I think I have a more robust build system to introduce, which hopefully will solve the issue. Dealing with compilers on many different systems is such a pain! Look for the changes sometime this week.

I using os.environ to swapped the compiler from gcc to clang++ or clang

Below line 5 in setup.py, (from distutils.core ....) I added the lines:

import os
os.environ["CC"] = "clang"
os.environ["CXX"] = "clang++"

I also used clang and clang++ for both CC and CXX above.

Either way, I get the error:

least_asymmetry/include/pybind11/common.h:74:10: fatal error: 'forward_list' file not found

This flags an error because of line 74 in the file common.h mentioned in the error.

from least_asymmetry.

Pleas check if the devel branch builds for you on linux now, just using the setup.py, with whatever default compilers it finds (gcc)

from least_asymmetry.

So far so good. I am using 3 servers with 3 versions of gcc. As was expected, the 1 server that has gcc > 4.7 and includes libc++11 natively does work well.

I think that the problem is solved and will close this now. But I'm going to spell everything out below in case a future user / developer runs into these issues.

Server 1 (install failed): gcc (GCC) 4.4.5 20110214 (Red Hat 4.4.5-6)
Server 2 (install failed): gcc (GCC) 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-17)
Server 3 (install success!): gcc (GCC) 5.3.1 20160406 (Red Hat 5.3.1-6)
