I am not good at command line compilation. My problem is the inability to compile a simple project that depends on Boost. The following is the log of my attempts:
$ g++ -Wall test.cpp -o main
/tmp/ccCTvBYE.o: In function `__static_initialization_and_destruction_0(int, int)':
test.cpp:(.text+0x6b): undefined reference to `boost::system::generic_category()'
test.cpp:(.text+0x77): undefined reference to `boost::system::generic_category()'
test.cpp:(.text+0x83): undefined reference to `boost::system::system_category()'
/tmp/ccCTvBYE.o: In function `boost::asio::error::get_system_category()':
test.cpp:(.text._ZN5boost4asio5error19get_system_categoryEv[_ZN5boost4asio5error19get_system_categoryEv]+0x5): undefined reference to `boost::system::system_category()'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
So there I found instructions for adding -lboost_systemor -lboost_system-mt. I got the following:
$ g++ -lboost_system -Wall test.cpp -o main
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lboost_system
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
$ g++ -lboost_system-mt -Wall test.cpp -o main
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lboost_system-mt
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
I tried to find the library boost_system.
$ /sbin/ldconfig -p | grep boost_system
libboost_system.so.1.53.0 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_system.so.1.53.0
Then I unsuccessfully tried the following
$ g++ -I"/home/third_party/boost/" -L"/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/" -lboost_system -Wall test.cpp -o main
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lboost_system
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Now i'm stuck. How to form a team for compilation?
Edit:
The next attempt did not help either.
ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_system.so.1.53.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_system.so
ldconfig -n /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/
$ ll /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ | grep boost_system
