2 years ago Hi - Thanks a ton. When I build with the debug_level I do see a bunch of compilation errors - they are all the same however:
error: 'mutex' in namespace 'std' does not name a type std::mutex m_mutex; ^~~~~
and:
error: 'mutex' is not a member of 'std'
std::lock_guard
(after a quick web search...) I wonder if I need to install a different MingW setup with a different threading model (like pthreads instead of win32?). Hmmm ...
Here is the more detailed log:

2 years ago not sure if it's still accurate: https://stackoverflow.com/a/66601034 seems like they do not fully support C++11 in some modes (at least it was so in MinGW 5.3.0)

2 years ago one workaround could be to disable threading, if you don't need it (BOOST_DISABLE_THREADS):
https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_76_0/libs/config/doc/html/index.html#boost_config.configuring_boost_for_your_platform.user_settable_options
alternatively, you can build without boost::math, if it's not needed (-o boost:without_math=True option)

numaIs there a way to find a list of '-o boost' options? I am trying to learn how to set 'BOOST_DISABLE_THREADS'. you may use conan inspect:
$ conan inspect boost/1.77.0@ -a options
there is also super-useful (especially for testing) option called extra_b2_flags which allows to propagate arbitrary b2 flags, e.g.:
-o boost:extra_b2_flags="numa=on"or
-o boost:extra_b2_flags="defines=BOOST_DISABLE_THREADS"

2 years ago reading boostorg/fiber#172, it seems like setting numa=off is the solution (the opposite)
at least, the same NUMA sources are used for Windows: https://github.com/boostorg/fiber/blob/develop/build/Jamfile.v2#L118
and these sources use Win32 API casting std::thread::native_handle_t to HANDLE: https://github.com/boostorg/fiber/blob/develop/src/numa/windows/pin_thread.cpp#L40
regardless of thread API (so I think setting threadapi will have no effect).

Yes, it seems so. I have tried both numa=on and numa=off to no effect.

2 years ago -o boost:extra_b2_flags="defines=BOOST_DISABLE_THREADS"
This moved the error. (I used 'define' instead of 'defines'). Now I get:
I then tried to disable date_time, but it complained that other features I need depend on it. I will try your other suggestions.

2 years ago Workaround: disable fiber (-o boost:without_fiber=True) #4764 (comment)
SUCCESS! Thanks so much. However, now I get a linker error in the package that depends on this. I doubt it is related to the 'without_fiber=True' workaround, but just in case someone knows ... here is the linker error:
undefined reference to `_beginthreadex'
This seems to be related also to posix support. So, I went back and tried the 'without_fiber=True' workaround with the gcc MinGW compiler with win32 threading model, and landed back into the first mutex issue that was solved going to the posix mingw. Sigh. :-)

2 years ago Hello again. Can you please tell me the protocol for closing an issue?
For this issue, the community has been very helpful and kind with their time. Should we close it? Although I am not out of the woods, a reasonable workaround was provided (-o boost:without_fiber=True). I cannot tell at this point whether my downstream issues are because of the workaround - but, I doubt they are. The next issue in my journey here is #7665 (same configuration).
By the way, my project end goal here is to use the fmi4cpp package that depends on these other packages I am trying to build. I am restricted to the GCC MinGW 64 tools.
Thanks again all!

there is no protocol except common sense. if you fill there is no problem in recipe, you may close the issue.
undefined reference to `_beginthreadex'
_beginthreadex is a CRT function: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/beginthread-beginthreadex?view=msvc-160

2 years ago Hello everyone, thanks again for the help. I want to update a new finding and summarize the solution here before I close this issue.
The update is: I needed to upgrade the compiler version because of another dependency in the ultimate library I am trying to build (fmi4cpp). The related issue is: #7665. When I did this, another issue in the boost library build emerged and I had to remove another feature using -o boost:without_stacktrace=True.
Here is the working conan install command:
conan install .. --build=missing -o boost:without_fiber=True -o boost:without_stacktrace=True
Here is the working profile for gcc version 11.2.0 (MinGW-W64 x86_64-ucrt-posix-seh) installed at C:\winlibs-x86_64-posix-seh-gcc-11.2.0-mingw-w64ucrt-9.0.0-r2\mingw64\bin.
