[SOLVED] undefined reference to org::opensplice::core::DWDeleter::DWDeleter

undefined reference to org::opensplice::core::DWDeleter::DWDeleter

I'm new to OpenSplice and wanted to complie the simple tutorial from here:

https://github.com/PrismTech/dds-tutorial-cpp-ex

I downloaded OpenSplice Community Edition and sourced the release.com file.

Then I cloned the dds-tutorial-cpp-ex git repository and tried to build ch1:

$ cd ch1
$ cmake .
$ make

Unfortunately, there's a undefined reference to `org::opensplice::core::DWDeleter::DWDeleter(std::shared_ptr const&)

The library libdcpsisocpp.so is added to the linking target (see https://github.com/PrismTech/dds-tutorial-cpp-ex/blob/master/cmake/FindOpenSplice.cmake#L56) which defines this reference.

I already rebuilt the library by changing into HDE/x86_64.linux/custom_lib folder and executing make -f Makefile.Build_DCPS_ISO_Cpp_Lib which finished without errors.

Why do I get this error? How can I fix it?

My system is Ubuntu 14.04 amd64.

OpenSplice version is: OpenSplice HDE Release V6.4.140407OSS For x86_64.linux, Date 2014-04-15

EDIT: Same problem exists in OpenSplice OpenSplice HDE Release V6.5.0p1 For x86_64.linux, Date 2015-03-19

There the errors are:

undefined reference to `org::opensplice::core::DRDeleter::DRDeleter(std::shared_ptr<DDS::Subscriber> const&)'
undefined reference to `org::opensplice::core::TopicDeleter::TopicDeleter(std::shared_ptr<DDS::DomainParticipant> const&)'

Solution

The problem was that the library which was included wasn't built with C++11 support, thus it used Boost shared pointers instead of the C++11 ones but somehow the tutorial code uses C++11.

Editing the Makefile HDE/x86_64.linux/custom_lib/Makefile.Build_DCPS_ISO_Cpp_Lib and adding -std=c++0x to the CPPFLAGS line fixed the problem.

(Don't forget to recompile with make -f Makefile.Build_DCPS_ISO_Cpp_Lib)

@yasir-majeed Thanks for pointing this out!!
