Unable to install GranOO

[arun15]

Hi,
While installing this on my mac, I am getting this error. I followed each and every step as provided by the installation procedure.
CMake Error at /Users/hitesharunagiri/Desktop/granoo/tags/3.0/Tool/GddViewer/CMakeLists.txt:45 (find_package):
  By not providing "FindQt5Widgets.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project
  has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
  "Qt5Widgets", but CMake did not find one.

  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Qt5Widgets" with
  any of the following names:

    Qt5WidgetsConfig.cmake
    qt5widgets-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "Qt5Widgets" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "Qt5Widgets_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
  "Qt5Widgets" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has
  been installed.


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

Can you please provide the solution for this.

[Cédric Hubert]

Hi,

Looks like there is an error (or at leat a missing update) in the install tutorial.

GranOO relies on Qt5, but the command

brew install qt

 actually installs Qt6.
Try installing Qt5 by issuing this command:

brew install qt@5

Since Qt5 is an old version, from the Homebrew point of view, you also need to manually symlink some stuff (you may need to adjust paths and version):

ln -s /opt/homebrew/Cellar/qt@5/5.15.12_1/mkspecs /opt/homebrew/
ln -s /opt/homebrew/Cellar/qt@5/5.15.12_1/plugins /opt/homebrew/

Hi,
I am extremely thankful for your reply. I tried it, and it works. But now, I am facing a new issue.
While specifying the "make" command, I am getting the following error,
/Users/hitesharunagiri/desktop/granoo/tags/3.0/Lib/GranOO3/Core/Domain.cpp:35:10: fatal error: 'boost/filesystem/convenience.hpp' file not found

But I have installed Boost 1.85 on my PC.

Please provide me with a solution. I apologise for the inconvenience caused, as I am new to using the terminal.  

[Cédric Hubert]

Looks like there is a change in Boost 1.85 (GranOO compiles fine with 1.84).
See for instance the issue in this project: https://github.com/EttusResearch/uhd/issues/740
They fixed the error by simply removing the include line:

#include <boost/filesystem/convenience.hpp>

Please test and let us know.

Regards

[arun15]

After deleting the #include line in the domain.cpp, I am getting the following error,

[Cédric Hubert]

There is more job than expected...
The most simple for you is to install an earlier version of Boost.
I will work with the team to support Boost 1.85 in GranOO in a future release.

Best regards

[arun15]

Hi,
Can you guys tell me which version of Boost is most suitable for GranOO? I installed Boost version 1.76 but still had some issues. If you could specify the version, I could try installing it.

Thanks.

[Cédric Hubert]

What kind of issue ?
As I said earlier, GranOO compiles fine with 1.84 on my Mac.

[arun15]

I had installed boost version 1.84 on my mac. After the "make" command, and after reaching 58%, it is showing this error,

where i added #include <boost/array.hpp> in the /Users/hitesharunagiri/Desktop/granoo/tags/3.0/Tool/Cooker/PlugIn_StopFill.cpp file.

After adding the two changes, I didnt face any errors, untill at the end, i faced the clang error. Is it due to the python version perhaps?

[Cédric Hubert]

Hi,

Just add this line:

#include <boost/array.hpp>

on top of the PlugIn_StopFill.cpp file. This should fix the error.

Best regards

[arun15]

Hi,
I fixed that error too. At the end of the processes, after 99% of the make command, I am getting this error,

clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make[2]: *** [Binding/Python/libPyGranOO3.so] Error 1

[Cédric Hubert]

Sorry, I missed your last comment.

For this error, please print the error (missing library, etc...) that should be mentioned by the linker a few line above.

[arun15]

Hi,
After this line,
[ 85%] Linking CXX shared library libPyGranOO3.so
There was a enormous set of lines which didn't show any error or missing libraries, and after which I was shown the clang error. I have created a doc where I attached all the lines.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/12hbLjzLUWAzLkbaSPvnx3lJZ70y5_95rxrQ7UeyU3qQ/edit?usp=sharing

Please go through it.

[arun15]

Hi,
Any updates regarding this issue?

Regards.

[Cédric Hubert]

Hi,

I've fixed the issues with the latest Boost version (currently 1.85).
Please find below a link to download an archive of the current state of the developments.

By the way, I can't reproduce your last issue. I hope this update also fixes this problem.
Please tell us if this works.

Thanks,
Regards.

Hi,
I had re-installed boost 1.85, and ran the installation steps. I had replaced the Lib folder in my system, from the archive folder given, to solve most of the errors. But after some processing from the make command, I am getting this error,

Please clear your build directory, reconfigure using CMake and then make.
It should work fine, like I just tested from a fresh build directory.

Hi,
I was able to solve the previous issue, but unfortunately, at the end of the process I am facing the same error as I was facing when working with Boost 1.84(see message on May 31).

I guess this line"-- Could NOT find Boost: missing: python312 (found /opt/homebrew/lib/cmake/Boost-1.85.0/BoostConfig.cmake (found version "1.85.0"))" is what is causing the problem?

Note-"I was facing a lot of issues while compiling with boost 1.85, so i had to copy paste the lib folder and the python binding folder from the archive to my system, whoch solved the problems"
