Cross Compiling Boost for use on the Gumstix Overo with GumROS
- by amelim
I'm trying to cross-compile boost for use with the ROS framework on a Gumstix Overo. I've been following the posted instructions here (modifying the script when need be), however I've come across an issue where bjam will not compile boost properly.
I call bjam as follows:
# boost
if [ ! -f /opt/gumros/lib/libboost_date_time-gcc41-mt-1_38.so ] ; then
if [ ! -f boost_1_38_0.tar.gz ] ; then
wget --tries=10 http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/boost/boost_1_38_0.tar.gz
fi
# tar xzf boost_1_38_0.tar.gz
cd boost_1_38_0
GPP_PATH=${OVEROTOP}/tmp/cross/armv7a/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/bin/g++
GPP_VER=`${GPP_PATH} -v 2>&1 | tail -1 | awk '{print $3}'`
echo "using gcc : ${GPP_VER} : ${GPP_PATH} ; " > tools/build/v2/user-config.jam
sudo apt-get install bjam
set +o errexit
sudo bjam --toolset=gcc-${GPP_VER} --prefix=/opt/gumros --with-date_time install
set -o errexit
cd ..
else
echo "boost appears to be already installed; skipping."
fi
if [ ! -f /opt/gumros/lib/libboost_date_time-gcc41-mt-1_38.so ] ; then
echo "Failed to compile libboost_date_time";
exit;
fi
I've checked the user-config to make sure everything was kosher as well as making sure the GPP_PATH is correct. However, when I run the scrip I come across compilation errors such as:
