Compiling Boost.Locale #15

david-hoze · 2019-01-17T10:12:32Z

Hi, great work :)
Couldn't find the locale library (no libboost_log.so in the build directory), nor could I find a list to add the this library to.

Can you please help me compile the boost locale library as well?

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

Hello.

I take it you mean libboost_locale.so
Presumably the build skipped it because requirements icu or iconv are not satisfied.

You could try building them with this project.
Then add the ICU_PATH or ICONV_PATH to the run ./b2 command in my build_tools/build-boost.sh to tell boost where the libs you built are:

run ./b2 -d+2 -q -j$NUM_JOBS \
          .....
         -sICONV_PATH=path_to/libiconv-libicu-android/$ARCH \
         -sICU_PATH=path_to/libiconv-libicu-android/$ARCH \
         .........
install \

Possibly also add the --with-locale flag to ./b2

and/or try enabling exactly one of ICU/ICONV for b2 via
--with-locale boost.locale.iconv=off boost.locale.icu=on or vice versa

Hi, thanks for your response!

I tried your suggestion (also --with-locale) but getting:

Boost.Locale needs either iconv or ICU library to be built.

You can reproduce it using my fork, checkout the icu branch:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/david-hoze/Boost-for-Android
cd Boost-for-Android
git checkout icu

I added a submodule for libiconv-libicu-android, that's why the recursive clone

On my fork you need to run doIt.sh with arguments (instead of the hardcoded BOOST_SRC_DIR and ANDROID_NDK_ROOT).
just run:

doIt.sh BOOST_SRC_DIR ANDROID_NDK_ROOT

It builds the libiconv-libicu-android automatically if it's not already built.

Will appreciate your help in the matter :)

Hi David.

Do the ICONV and ICU libraries get built properly?

Concentrate on ICU. Place this directly in a dir of formicu/$ICU_VERSION, where 'version' is the icu version you built (eg 63.1).

This dir should have structure like:

icu/63.1
            /include
                    .......
            /libs
                   /armeabi-v7a
                                  libicuio.so
                                  .....

Pass the build-boost.sh script the parameter --with-icu=<version>

Modify the path used to search for ICU in build-boost.sh. eg.

local ICU=$NDK_DIR/sources/icu/$ICU_VERSION

->

local ICU=where_you_have_icu/icu/1.63

Then try to (clean -- make sure nothing gets cached) build again.

Note: This might work without any modification of the call to ./b2

david-hoze · 2019-01-23T12:31:47Z

I can't seem to find the directory structure you illustrated..
Maybe the ICU is not being built, I am indeed getting a few errors in the build process, so I submitted an issue: pelya/libiconv-libicu-android#10.

Hello David.

I have been able to build boostlocale (with ndk 19) following the procedure I outlined above.

Build iconv/icu using my fork of the repo above (it includes a fix from me which hasnt been yet merged into the original).
Note: you have to add the ndk dir to $PATH since it expects ndk-build to be callable - this is how you specify an ndk version: > export PATH=$PATH:<path_to_ndkdir>. And > export SHARED_ICU=1 from caller if you want to build a shared lib - recommended. And to sepecify an abi > export ARCHS=armeabi-v7a (choose from: arm64-v8a, armeabi-v7a, x86, x86_64)
Copy/move the libs/includes to a dir structure like the following:

icu/62.1
            /include
                    .......
            /libs
                   /armeabi-v7a
                                  libicuio.so
                                  .....

(This could be automated by a script .. feel free to add one :-)

Pass the build-boost.sh script the parameter --with-icu=<version> and export the variable ICU_DIR from doIt.sh (Youll need the latest version of Boost-for-Android for this)

Your doIt.sh should now look something like this:


ICU_VERSION=62.1   
export ICU_DIR=/home/declan/Documents/zone/low/icu

./build_tools/build-boost.sh --version=$BOOST_VERSION --stdlibs=$STD_LIBS --abis=$ABIS  --ndk-dir=$ANDROID_NDK_ROOT --linkage=$LINKAGE --verbose $BOOST_SRC_DIR --with-icu=$ICU_VERSION 2>&1 | tee -a $logFile

I get boostlocale and see that its dependent on libicudata.so, libicui18n.so, libicuuc.so, libiconv.so

david-hoze · 2019-02-03T12:30:39Z

Thanks a lot, it compiles!!
My fork automates all that you suggested in the doIt.sh script BTW, including a submodule for libiconv-libicu-android.

david-hoze · 2019-02-04T10:47:52Z

If you would like I'll be glad to submit a pull request, and add a --with-icu flag in the doIt.sh script.
let me know if you want me to.

david-hoze · 2019-02-19T10:56:53Z

Hi, it does indeed compile, however.. When I run it I'm getting this exception:

Please add a pull request into the "boost_locale" branch.
Thanks

Would need to see your code.

Maybe you can create a repo with the app your trying to run
