.a files for other operating system

Question

.a files for other operating system

nielshanson opened this issue 10 years ago · 26 comments

Hey Man,

We'd like to compile the source for other operating system, i.e., Mac OSX, however, we need to know how the archive files were compiled from the boost library in order to create compatible versions.

Specifically these are files in the Src/ folder:

libboost_chrono.a
libboost_serialization.a
libboost_system.a
libboost_thread.a

If you could share how these were made that would be very helpful, as we could then create the equivalent files for our systems.

Thanks,
Niels

Hi Niels,

They are compiled from BOOST library (http://www.boost.org/), you can
download the latest version and compile it or use brew tool under OSX to
install it. Please let me know if you have any questions!

Sincerely,
Yongan

Thanks Yongan,

We got to the bottom of it on our side. In case anyone wants a play-by-play on how to install for Mac (OS X 10.6.8) (using macports). I've put some installation notes below:

Install a version of gcc:

sudo port install gcc4X

Install the boost libraries:

sudo port install boost

Copy from the macports library directory (usually /opt/local/lib) the relevant libraries for RAPSearch2 into the <RAPSearch2>/Src folder: libboost_chrono-mt.a, libboost_serialization-mt.a, libboost_system-mt.a, and libboost_thread-mt.a. Rename them to match the Makefile.
Make sure that gcc is set as the default compiler for g++
sudo port select --set gcc gcc42
Note: you can list the available compilers in macports with the command: port select --list gcc
Try to run the install shell script: ./install. If it causes an undefined symbols error related to the boost libraries:

$ ./install 

RAPSearch installer
rm -f *.o rapsearch prerapsearch
g++ -c -O3 -w  HashSearch.cpp -o HashSearch.o -I ./
g++ -c -O3 -w  BlastStat.cpp -o BlastStat.o -I ./
g++ -c -O3 -w  Seg.cpp -o Seg.o -I ./
g++ -c -O3 -w  mergeUnit.cpp -o mergeUnit.o -I ./
g++ -O3 -w  -o rapsearch main.cpp HashSearch.o BlastStat.o Seg.o mergeUnit.o -I ./ -L ./ -lboost_serialization -lpthread -lboost_thread -lboost_system -lboost_chrono
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
  "boost::thread::start_thread()", referenced from:
      boost::threadpool::detail::worker_thread<boost::threadpool::detail::pool_core<boost::function0<void>, boost::threadpool::fifo_scheduler, boost::threadpool::static_size, boost::threadpool::resize_controller, boost::threadpool::wait_for_all_tasks> >::create_and_attach(boost::shared_ptr<boost::threadpool::detail::pool_core<boost::function0<void>, boost::threadpool::fifo_scheduler, boost::threadpool::static_size, boost::threadpool::resize_controller, boost::threadpool::wait_for_all_tasks> > const&) in HashSearch.o

try removing the include flag -I from the compilation lines in the Makefile. This seems to solve the problem.

Thanks a lot!

I'll put it in readme file. Thank you for promoting RAPSearch2!

Hey nielshanson and Yongan,

I am using Mac OSX 10.7.5 and tried to install RAPSearch 2 according to the original instructions and (after being unssuccesful) according to the instructions of nielshanson. However, I get the following error/output:
RAPSearch installer
rm -f .o rapsearch prerapsearch
g++ -c -O3 -w HashSearch.cpp -o HashSearch.o -I ./
g++ -c -O3 -w BlastStat.cpp -o BlastStat.o -I ./

mv: rename Src/rapsearch to bin/rapsearch: No such file or directory
mv: rename Src/prerapsearch to bin/prerapsearch: No such file or directory

Executables are now installed under bin/

If I do not replace the -lboost_serialization -lpthread -lboost_thread -lboost_system -lboost_chrono files in /src I get the same output but with the following ending:
ld: library not found for -lrt
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [rapsearch] Error 1
mv: rename Src/rapsearch to bin/rapsearch: No such file or directory
mv: rename Src/prerapsearch to bin/prerapsearch: No such file or directory

Could you be so kind and help me on this issue?

Sincerely,
Felix

Answer 5 · 2014-07-18T13:54:10.000Z

Hi Felix,

It looks like boost libraries are missed. Did you install boost
libraries (|sudo port install boost|) and copy them to RAPSearch2 src
folder?

Sincerely,
Y. Z.

Hi Felix,

It could be lacking boost_system library. Is it in the src folder?
What's its name?

Hey Yongan,

sorry for the delayed answer. No it is not there. Where can I get it? Sorry if the question is stupid (I am new to this) but is it possible for you to upload a package with the necessary libraries?

Sincerely,
Felix

Answer 11 · 2014-07-18T15:15:23.000Z

Hi Felix,

You can install boost libraries (|sudo port install boost|) and then
copy them (|/opt/local/lib|) to RAPSearch2 src folder.

Sincerely,
Y. Z.

Hey Yongan,

thank you for the support on this issue, it is now working for me. Nielshanson's comment lacks the information that -lrt should be removed from the makefile before compiling. Otherwise it can be used as step-by-step instruction.

Maybe you can add this to the Readme.

Thanks,
Felix

Answer 13 · 2014-07-18T16:14:09.000Z

Great! I'll add this!

I'm currently trying to compile RAPsearch2 for OSX 10.9.4, using the above instructions, and have run into problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It seems that the compiler is not compatible with c++ library after
searching it online. Could you try to replace 'g++' in Makefile with
'clang++'?

So, I was finally able to compile the software using nielshanson's SOP and my old laptop which was running OSX 10.7.5. Those directions do not work for 10.9.4.

Thankfully, the compiled binaries run on both OSX 10.7.5 and 10.9.4.

Thankfully, the compiled binaries run on both OSX 10.7.5 and 10.9.4.

I recompiled the boost libraries and copied them into Src/ on a Mac (10.9.5); however, when I run ./install (with or without -I and -lrt) I get some form of the following error message: error: unable to open output file 'Src/main-d39381.o': 'Error opening output file 'Src/main-d39381.o': No such file or directory'

Any ideas?

Thank you!

Hey nielshanson and Yongan,

It seems everybody solved the problem with rapsearch2 in a Mac but me.
I am using Mac OSX 10.7.5 and tried all above suggestions.
I checked my gcc version, installed boost libraries, checked if gcc is the default compiler and llvm-gcc42 is selected and active. I copied libboost_chrono-mt.a, libboost_system-mt.a, libboost_serialization-mt.dylib and libboost_thread-mt.dylib. For the latter two there is no .a extension, only .dylig. I replaced them by the ones in the Src folder and renamed to match the Makefile. Then I commented the INC flag and deleted the $(INC).
The error message begins with:
RAPSearch installer
rm -f .o rapsearch prerapsearch
g++ -c -O3 -w HashSearch.cpp -o HashSearch.o
In file included from HashSearch.cpp:2:
HashSearch.h:11:35: error: boost/thread/thread.hpp: No such file or directory … and continues (its very long) until finally:
make: ** [HashSearch.o] Error 1
mv: rename Src/rapsearch to bin/rapsearch: No such file or directory
mv: rename Src/prerapsearch to bin/prerapsearch: No such file or directory

Executables are now installed under bin/

Can anybody help me?
Thank you in advance.
Nana
