Thanks for the report @abialystok . Could you check what tools do you have available? (CMake version, make version, compiler version, etc...) Or alternatively, could you link the "Amazon Linux 2" docker image onto the ticket?

[abialystok]

Sure. Versions:

Regarding docket image, I'm not sure but it could be this one: https://hub.docker.com/_/amazonlinux Let me know if there's any other info that can be useful

[rizsotto]

Ok, I could use that docker image... and here are my findings:

• The CMake needs to be updated! I've downloaded the latest stable (3.23.3) from here, and it fixed the error message you got... To fix this in Bear could be: to fail if the CMake version is 3.13 or smaller. (Currently it fails if the version is smaller than 3.12)
• The next failure you are going to face if you install a new CMake is the C++ compiler. You need full support of C++17, which is in 8.x version of GCC. (Otherwise you need to add the extra filesystem flags as CXXFLAGS. Not sure if that's going to work, because I do not test this on the builds)

[abialystok]

Upgrading cmake did fix this error message. I upgraded to gcc10 (for some reason the gcc8 package doesn't exist here), but the filesystem thing doesn't work:

Should it work with GCC 10?

[rizsotto]

Yes, recent version of GCC will work. But multiple version of GCC on your machine might be an issue, if that's not properly configured. (Just a reminder, you need the C++ library to be C++17 compatible too. Not sure is that a separate package on your machine, or brought by the new version of the compiler.)

The filesystem header is part of the C++17 standard. So, if you have a properly configured C++17 env, this should compile.

Hi, I also meet this issue on ubuntu 16.04. Do you resolve it?

[abialystok]

Steps mentioned by @rizsotto should solve it. Unfortunately I didn't find a way to install the GCC version required on my Linux distro, with libraries and everything, so I gave up on it. Closing this issue now because I don't plan to continue working on it.

[selfbypass]

Ok, I could use that docker image... and here are my findings:

• The CMake needs to be updated! I've downloaded the latest stable (3.23.3) from here, and it fixed the error message you got... To fix this in Bear could be: to fail if the CMake version is 3.13 or smaller. (Currently it fails if the version is smaller than 3.12)
• The next failure you are going to face if you install a new CMake is the C++ compiler. You need full support of C++17, which is in 8.x version of GCC. (Otherwise you need to add the extra filesystem flags as CXXFLAGS. Not sure if that's going to work, because I do not test this on the builds)

Yes, I update to G++-9 and CMake(3.24.0) and solve this issue.

for the fmt dependency, I recommend using fmt 9.0.0. For fmt 10, I got the undefined reference error undefined reference to `spdlog::details::log_msg::log_msg(spdlog::source_loc, fmt::v10::basic_string_view, spdlog::level::level_enum, fmt::v10::basic_string_view)
