Can't compile under mingw64 (neither mingw64 or mingw32)

[robe]

I spoke too soon. I cannt compile SFCGAL. I get erros on both mingw64-w32 and mingw64-w64 and tehy are completely different errors.

thw mingw64-w32 I do have compiled with newer version of boost (boost 1.49.0 and mingw64-w64 is compiled with 1.46.

Errors for mingw64-w64 look like this: CMAKE config

The mingw64-w32 is failing at the linker phase. For pgRouting I had to apply a patch to boost and cgal that swoodbridge had provided me to get pgrouting to work. I'll see if maybe I need to do the same here.

I also noticed earlier own I had two sets of mpr and gmp so I need to make sure the includ eand lib match its picking up.

Hi,

Seems to be related to this bug report : ​https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/4839

If I understand it correctly : you would either have to patch against 1.46 or use the 1.49 version ...

[hmercier]

Edit : ​https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/4804 ​https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/4849

[robe]

Currently focussed on the mingw64-w32 and will revisit the other later. I bumped up to boost 1.53 which is supposed to have all the mingw issues fixed from what I've read, but sadly still failing at linker when it gets to building the SFCGAL.dll

undefined reference to `_imp___ZN5boost6detail12set_tss_dataEPKvNS_10shared_ptrINS0_20tss_cleanup_functionEEEPvb'

I think static building might be my issue so trying to switch boost to dynamic in cgal and sfcgal.

[hmercier]

This symbol is part of boost thread. Apprently cmake finds it, so it should work. But, yes I never tried with a static boost, only a dynamic linked one, should be that.

If you still have compiling/linking issues, could you use 'make VERBOSE=1' and copy the last lines in order to have the real compiler command line that is called ?

[robe]

here is what it looks like at the end before the linker chokes:

This one is trying to use 1.49 again. I've been flip flopping between 1.49 and 1.53 with much the same error. Unfortunately I'm not having much luck getting boost to compile dynamically under mingw if I leave out static -- it naturally compiles statically and if I put in explicit dynamic I get a whole slew of errors at the boost compile phase.

For pgrouting I use 1.46 compiled statically and CGAL 3.9 and that seems to work fine together.

[robe]

Good news, I finally got SFCGAL to compile on my mingw32. Haven't retried on my mingw64 yet and haven't tried next step of building postgis with sfcgal. Trick was I had to change my boost command to also build shared

OS_BUILD=32
PROJECTS=/c/ming${OS_BUILD}/projects
BOOST_VER=1.53.0
BOOST_VER_WU=1_53_0
bjam toolset=gcc address-model=${OS_BUILD} threading=multi variant=debug,release link=static,shared --with-thread --with-system --with-date_time --with-serialization --prefix=${PROJECTS}/boost/rel-${BOOST_VER_WU}w${OS_BUILD} install

and then rebuild CGAL

[robe]

while I have compiles having trouble using in PostGIS -- I'm sure its just my paths off or something but fails on finding includes. I'm pushing this to 2.2 since I won't be distributing sfcgal with windows until PostGIS 2.2 especialy since dustymugs found valgrind memory issues with it under linux that concerned him.

[robe]

Made some big progress. Got sfcgal 1.0.4 compiling with PostGIS 2.2 dev. Unfortunately my make check is not quite working.

However I was able to install in my 9.4beta1 w32 edb and do this:

SELECT ST_AsText(ST_Extrude(ST_Buffer(ST_Point(1,2),10),3,4,5));

and get a poiyhedralsurface z back.

I have to retrace my steps since I ran into a lot of issues.

For example I had to fiddle with the SFCGAL cmake output to get mpfr listed before gmp as documented in FAQ 5: ​http://www.mpfr.org/faq.html#undef_ref2

I'll retrace my steps to confirm that was what I did to fix it.

Also the sfcgal-config file has the generated .dll being looked for in the lib folder (though the .dll.a was in lib), but CMake had installed it in the bin folder, so had to copy it to lib to be found by PostGIS.

[robe]

Bah for some reason I can't submit a ticket to github on SFCGALwith my patch. submit button is disabled. I could be imagining things.

Anyrate. Just tried compiling sfcgal on my mingw-w64 64-bit gcc 4.8.0 and ran into same issue during link phase:

I was able to fix by changing the src/CMakeLists.txt file packaged with sfcgal 1.0.4 by swapping the order of MPFR and GMP (basically moving MPFR above GMP)

So changing from

if( ${SFCGAL_WITH_GMP} )
	target_link_libraries( SFCGAL ${GMP_LIBRARIES} )
endif( ${SFCGAL_WITH_GMP} )
if( ${SFCGAL_WITH_MPFR} )
	target_link_libraries( SFCGAL ${MPFR_LIBRARIES} )
endif( ${SFCGAL_WITH_MPFR} )

To:

if( ${SFCGAL_WITH_MPFR} )
	target_link_libraries( SFCGAL ${MPFR_LIBRARIES} )
endif( ${SFCGAL_WITH_MPFR} )
if( ${SFCGAL_WITH_GMP} )
	target_link_libraries( SFCGAL ${GMP_LIBRARIES} )
endif( ${SFCGAL_WITH_GMP} )

I'll close this out once I've successfully posted the issue to github sfcgal issue tracker.

Since this is really an SFCGAL issue entirely and not PostGIS , flipping to PostGIS SFCGAL and will close once fixed in SFCGAL code base.
