Undefined reference error while building Boost with CMake and Clion on Ubuntu

(undefinierter Verweis is german and means undifined Reference)

Hi, i am using CLion with CMake 3.14, Ubuntu, BOoost 1.72.0 default compiler gcc/g++

I got this error (after deleting CMakeCache.txt):

I installed boost with

sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev

AND/OR with

./bootstap.sh ./b2 install --prefix="/home/sebastian/boost_1_72_0"

this is my CMakeLists.txt:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.14)
project(Sceduling)

set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 14)

set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS}")

set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -pthread")


set(Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS ON)
set(Boost_USE_MULTITHREADED ON)
set(Boost_NO_BOOST_CMAKE ON)

find_package(Boost COMPONENTS filesystem REQUIRED)

add_executable(Sceduling main.cpp account.cpp bank_t.cpp alternation.cpp transaction.c)
target_link_libraries(Sceduling PRIVATE Boost::filesystem)

this is the result:

Update: Build worked, if i don't use fiber the programm finishes with Exit Code 0. If i use Fiber i get Process finished with exit code 135 (interrupted by signal 7: SIGEMT)

this is my Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <boost/fiber/all.hpp>                                                                      

using namespace std;
using namespace boost;

inline
void fn() {
    cout << "Hello World" << endl;
}

int main() {
    fibers::fiber f1(fn);
    f1.join();
    return 0;
}

Solution

If you can use the Ubuntu Boost package, install it with the following command:

sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev

Then your CMakeLists.txt file should look like follows:

set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
set(Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS ON)
set(Boost_USE_MULTITHREADED ON)
set(Boost_NO_BOOST_CMAKE ON)

find_package(Boost COMPONENTS fiber system filesystem REQUIRED)

add_executable(Sceduling main.cpp account.cpp bank_t.cpp alternation.cpp transaction.c)
target_link_libraries(Sceduling PRIVATE Boost::headers Boost::fiber Boost::system Boost::filesystem)

Otherwise if you intend to build boost yourself and install it in a custom folder your CMakeLists.txt file should look like follows:

set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
set(Boost_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS 1.72.0 1.72)
set(Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS ON)
set(Boost_USE_MULTITHREADED ON)
set(Boost_NO_SYSTEM_PATHS ON)
set(Boost_NO_BOOST_CMAKE ON)
set(Boost_ROOT <mydir>)
set(Boost_INCLUDEDIR <a_directory_with_include_files>)
set(Boost_LIBRARYDIR <a_directory_with_library_files>)

find_package(Boost 1.72.0 COMPONENTS fiber system filesystem REQUIRED)

add_executable(Sceduling main.cpp account.cpp bank_t.cpp alternation.cpp transaction.c)
target_link_libraries(Sceduling PRIVATE Boost::headers Boost::fiber Boost::system Boost::filesystem)

Where 1.72.0 is the version of Boost you have previously built and installed to <mydir>. If the installation puts include files and libraries under seperate directories you need to reference them in the variables Boost_INCLUDEDIR and Boost_LIBRARYDIR.

Your CMake (3.14) is quite old and its FindBoost module does not now about the recent version of Boost (1.72.0). That's why you may need to set the Boost_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS variable.
No need to check Boost_FOUND as the REQUIRED keyword makes CMake fail if Boost cannot be found.
Your target is called Sceduling not executable.
You need at least C++11 enabled for Boost::fiber to work.

For further explanation of the settings please refere to the FindBoost CMake documentation.
