fail to build jkq-ddsim #17

Closed Roger-luo closed 4 years ago

Roger-luo commented 4 years ago

Hi @hillmich

currently our benchmark machine fails to build jkq-ddsim due to the following error:

CMake Warning at /usr/share/cmake-3.10/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:567 (message):

  (all versions older than 1.33)

I'm wondering if you have boost installation setup in your cmake? since I don't think we would like to have boost as the default global benchmark environment since it's a quite large dependency. I'm wondering if not, would you mind update the setup.sh to install boost for jkq-ddsim?

NOTE: also you might already notice we refactor the benchmark recently to make it more modular.

Thanks for the notification. The simulator does not require the whole of Boost, only the program_options library.

Do you think just having this particular library in the global env is okay? For example, the Ubuntu package is quite small with about 10KB size.
