CGAL users discussion list

Hi again,

Apparently, the error is due to the incorrect linking to the boost library, as can be seen below (appendix). I built boost 1.43.0 although it seems cmake only finds 1.34.1. The new version of boost seems to be in /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib. I tried creating the environment variable (according to [1]):

BOOST_ROOT=/usr/local/

But it didn't work. Then I tried to be more specific:

BOOST_INCLUDEDIR=/usr/local/include

BOOST_LIBRARYDIR=/usr/local/lib

It didn't work either. Do I have to set the variables through cmake too?

Thanks,

Hi all,

I'm having problems running the examples in CGAL/examples.

First I installed CGAL with

cmake .

make 

sudo make install

Everything goes fine (except CGAL_Qt3 and CGAL_Qt4, but I think it doesn't matter).

Then, to run an example, I try for example the AABB_tree directory.

There I do

cmake .

and 

make

But in this one I receive an error mesage:

Scanning dependencies of target AABB_custom_example

[ 12%] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/AABB_custom_example.dir/AABB_custom_example.o

Linking CXX executable AABB_custom_example

/usr/local/lib/libCGAL.so: undefined reference to `boost::detail::set_tss_data(void const*, boost::shared_ptr<boost::detail::tss_cleanup_function>, void*, bool)'

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

make[2]: *** [AABB_custom_example] Error 1

make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/AABB_custom_example.dir/all] Error 2

make: *** [all] Error 2

It seems that the problem is with boost library, but it didn't showed errors when I was building/installing CGAL.

Does anyone have a clue about this error?

Thanks!
