We're running into problems compiling the boost math library with GCC's TR1. The problem comes from Boost.TR1, and I believe the #include_next preprocessor directive. We are using the Ubuntu packages for g++ and for Boost 1.40 which installs the headers in /usr/include/boost. Here's a simple example which fails to compile: ---- #define BOOST_HAS_TR1_TUPLE 1 #include int main() { return 0; } ---- $ g++ -I/usr/include -c -o tr1_test.o tr1_test.cpp In file included from tr1_test.cpp:2: /usr/include/boost/tr1/tuple.hpp:13:43: error: no include path in which to search for tr1/tuple ---- From the docs, defining BOOST_TR1_DISABLE_INCLUDE_NEXT should work, but does not. I have tried inserting the following lines before the #include, to no effect. #define BOOST_TR1_DISABLE_INCLUDE_NEXT #define BOOST_TR1_GCC_INCLUDE_PATH /usr/include/c++/4.4 The only workaround I could find is to explicitly include boost/tr1/detail/config.hpp and undef BOOST_HAS_INCLUDE_NEXT. Am I missing something in the documentation? What is the proper solution? PS: I see a similar problem mentioned over a year ago: http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2008/12/146552.php. But would the changes mentioned have been included in 1.40? I see no obvious changes between trunk and 1.40 for the tuple and config headers, though I haven't diffed them. -- Anthony Foglia Princeton Consultants (609) 987-8787 x233
