tried locate boost.hpp - because I know headers labelled like that tried locate *.hpp - found instance of location https://sites.google.com/site/alexeyvakimov/mini-tutorials/programming-boost-python-c See How to get started

http://randspringer.de/boost Looked up http://www.randspringer.de/boost/upt.html

Decided to try the config flag.

 ./configure --with-boost=/opt/local/include/boost

No dice

Checking my version of boost for my sanity

 grep BOOST_LIB_VERSION /opt/local/include/boost/version.hpp
//  BOOST_LIB_VERSION must be defined to be the same as BOOST_VERSION
#define BOOST_LIB_VERSION "1_52"

Screw it, let's try macports

sudo port selfupdate
sudo port upgrade outdated

Many package updates later.....

Having a lot of trouble getting configure to pay attention to the BOOST_HOME variable and --with-boost, so I am taking the path of least resistance here; which I think is probably Xcode. It is likely on a linux box or vm the libraries would be in the right place.

Now I went to try this in Xcode which is Version 4.5.2 (4G2008a)

After attempting to fix the command line version with --boost-lib= to no avail, I brought it into Xcode using Header Search Paths under the Build Settings tab in the main window when you click on the project. This is located under the heading "Search Paths", but if you got overwhelmed with these settings there is a wonderful little search in the top right corner that I use to pick out the right settings.

You hit the plus ,but, don't worry about specifying a specific architecture or sdk, just type in the path.

You can use the command line tool "locate" to help.

However, after doing this Xcode complains about not finding a log4cpp header. What happens often enough is that some tools are so common and documentation is so scattered that it becomes hard to tell whether we left directives to help guide people.

This probably is easily enough remedied: we can port install log4cpp (and since the compiler is looking for a header, we shouldn't look for a binary version but a development version. If you are using CPP under *nix (Linux,Unix,Mac) variants, this should become something you get familiar with).

port search log4cpp
log4cpp @1.1 (devel)
    configurable logging for C++

log4shib @1.0.8 (sysutils, shibboleth, devel)
    configurable logging for C++, fork of log4cpp

Found 2 ports.

So here we clearly want log4cpp (devel).

sudo port install log4cpp
Now we'll get, after authenticated

Now because I am lazy I'll try just running it, perhaps the search paths are already good enough. If not, we'll edit them.

I tried

locate logger.hpp

But locate hasn't been updated so it won't find it. I look for the log4cplus in the same include area and I find it.

Oops, looks like I installed the wrong library! It should be log4cpluss, but I installed log4cpp.

sudo port install log4cplus

Ok, now we should be good!

But hark, yet another error (and a couple of places that weren't cast yield warnings).

ld: file not found: ~/.cloudmeter/openssl-1.0.1c/lib/libssl-pic.a
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Ok looks like we probably need a link to an ssl library from openssl. We probably need to change a reference in our build.

So we should research this, after looking around I don't have a stock version of this library.

hmm, http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=246928

So perhaps we need a pic version?

Searching around I found this page in the docs Wiki for Pion

This page indicates that we don't need openssl, let alone a pic version. I'd rather have the SSL library

At this point there are variables in this that point to my home directory .cloudmeter/library, were I to continue, I'd probably have to dig into modifying these, but the destination for such a server ins't going to be on a Mac, it would likely be a linux box. So I think I will abandon this and pick it up some other time.

Pion appears to offer cheap Boost library web services. Reviewing the source may be worthwhile in the future.
