Running Eclipse 3.7.2 on Ubuntu 12.10 (i386) with Boost 1.49
Trying to get a serial port running with a callback
Found: http://www.webalice.it/fede.tft/serial_port/serial_port.html
and the source:
git clone: git://gitorious.org/serial-port/serial-port.git
When I compile a serial port example 4 with g++ I do not get any problems.
When I compile exactly the same class from Eclipse I get an error.
thread t(boost::bind(&asio::io_service::run, &pimpl->io));
// Offending code
------------------------------------------------------------------
'boost::bind' is ambiguous '
Candidates are:
boost::_bi::bind_t>>
bind(unsigned int (*)(boost::system::error_code &),
boost::asio::io_service *)
boost::_bi::bind_t,boost::_bi::list1>> bind(unsigned int (boost::asio::io_service::*)(),
boost::asio::io_service *)
' AsyncSerial.cpp /nodeserver/src line 102 Semantic Error
------------------------------------------------------------------
pimpl->io is a boost::asio::io_service
class AsyncSerialImpl: private boost::noncopyable
{
public:
...
boost::asio::io_service io; ///< Io service object
...
};
Someone suggest I declare a pointer to the run function, to resolve the
problem,
which I tried, but didnt get it right.
How do I declare a variable, which can be assigned the io_service::run
function?
myrun = &boost::asio::io_service::run;
Any other ideas?
Why compile and link in the makefile and not inside Eclipse?
Tried on a Ubuntu 13.04 machine with the same problem.
