Help precompiled boost library

koahnig

Did you ever had a look to the boost webpage?
There are quite a number of different parts of boost or different boost libs. Some of them are simply template libraries which do not require precompilation respectively you cannot compile separately.

Therefore, it would be good for you to check up-front, which part of the boost libs you need. Possibly you do not need any of those.
If you require a section boost libs with compilable cpp-source file, then you can pick the correct one for your compiler and check, if the memory and all fits your needs.

@koahnig i need these:
#include <boost/bind.hpp>
#include <boost/algorithm/string.hpp>
#include <boost/bind.hpp>
#include <boost/function.hpp>
#include <boost/random/discrete_distribution.hpp>
#include <boost/random/exponential_distribution.hpp>
#include <boost/random/mersenne_twister.hpp>
#include <boost/random/random_number_generator.hpp>
#include <boost/random/uniform_int_distribution.hpp>
#include <boost/random/uniform_real_distribution.hpp>
#include <boost/random/variate_generator.hpp>
#include <boost/program_options.hpp>
#include <boost/thread.hpp>

@koahnig I never took boost or nothing like this. I listened about can be installed with vs2013 anyways i couldn't ..

SGaist

Hi,

What couldn't you ?

Jeronimo

@SGaist Hi i cant use boost libraries with vs2013 i need to include them. I was trying with precompiled boost:
http://www.npcglib.org/~stathis/blog/precompiled-boost/#comment-71476
But anyways i dont know if i need to include the reference to these libraries. I'm little lost .

SGaist

What have you tried ?
What error did you get ?

Jeronimo

@SGaist i only included these libraries:
#include <boost/bind.hpp>
#include <boost/algorithm/string.hpp>
#include <boost/bind.hpp>
#include <boost/function.hpp>
#include <boost/random/discrete_distribution.hpp>
#include <boost/random/exponential_distribution.hpp>
#include <boost/random/mersenne_twister.hpp>
#include <boost/random/random_number_generator.hpp>
#include <boost/random/uniform_int_distribution.hpp>
#include <boost/random/uniform_real_distribution.hpp>
#include <boost/random/variate_generator.hpp>
#include <boost/program_options.hpp>
#include <boost/thread.hpp>

And trying to guess how to include the compiled library only tried that.

SGaist

Did you update your .pro file to add the path where the boost includes can be found to INCLUDEPATH ?
Did you update your .pro file to add the path where the boost .lib files can found to LIBS ?
Did you update your .pro file to add the boost libraries matching your include to link to ?

Jeronimo

This post is deleted!

SGaist

Yes, you should add the base path to the include in INCLUDEPATH otherwise your includes won't work.

You have "C:\Users\moh\Desktop\boost-1.60.0-x64-vs2013\boost64-1.60.0-vs2013\include\boost-1_60\boost\random", all your includes start with boost and not all your includes comes from boost/random. So remove these two folders from the path.

Jeronimo

@SGaist I tried with boost but i think the library i need to include other?
i tried this:
LIBS += -boost_random-vc120-mt-gd-1_60 -LC:/Users/moh/Desktop/boost-1.60.0-x64-vs2013/boost64-1.60.0-vs2013/lib
INCLUDEPATH += "C:\Users\moh\Desktop\boost-1.60.0-x64-vs2013\boost64-1.60.0-vs2013\include\boost-1_60\boost"

Sorry again a lot!

SGaist

Again, all your includes start with boost so that folder must not appear in your INCLUDEPATH statement.

Jeronimo

@SGaist Ok sorry you are right the issue solved. But one details about the project that i use boost:
Ok i included libraries boost but now i am trying to run one easy example but when i try i get this message:
C:\Users\moh\Documents\intento\scheduler.cpp:-1: error: C1041: no puede abrir la base de datos de programa 'c:\users\moh\documents\build-intento-qt_5_7_0_msvc2013_static-debug\debug\intento.pdb'. Si varios CL.EXE escriben en el mismo archivo .PDB, use /FS.

You know about this or can me take some advice?

SGaist

With the text in english it will be easier to help.

Jeronimo

@SGaist Ok the text is:
C:\Users\moh\Documents\intento\scheduler.cpp:-1: error: C1041: can't open the data bases of the program 'c:\users\moh\documents\build-intento-qt_5_7_0_msvc2013_static-debug\debug\intento.pdb'. If several cl.exe write in the same file .PDB, use /FS

Jeronimo

@SGaist And when i try to compile with vs2013 i get this:
i put nmake
and show me:
cl .\main.cpp .\scheduler.cpp

cl : Línea de comandos warning D9002 : se omite la opción desconocida '-std=c++11'

Jeronimo

the project is: https://github.com/gavinandresen/bitcoin_miningsim

SGaist

Are you trying to build that project with a static self-built Qt ?

Jeronimo

@SGaist yes static built. I use static and show me this: C:\Users\moh\Documents\intento\main.cpp:-1: error: C1041: no puede abrir la base de datos de programa 'c:\users\moh\documents\build-intento-qt_5_7_0_msvc2013_static-debug\debug\intento.pdb'. Si varios CL.EXE escriben en el mismo archivo .PDB, use /FS. But i think maybe is other reason not build? some suggestion?

SGaist

Before trying to build a project with a static version of Qt, build it with the standard dynamic version.

Note that the -std=c++11 is not an option for VS.
