Open Microscopy Environment

I use ome-bioformats library to develop an windows application. The framework I have already download is bioformats-cpp-5.1.8-Release-WindowsVC12-x86. The IDE of the project is Qt5-VC12. I import the biofomat library into the project and test the tutorial example http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/supp ... writer.cpp. There are many compile error, all about the c++ header file error inbioformats-cpp-5.1.8-Release-WindowsVC12-x86/include/boost. I am very expected someone can help me to fix it.

Please could you post a transcript of the errors so we can take a look?

How exactly did you got about importing the library into your project?

Is the search path for the headers set to look in the include directory of the downloaded build? That's where all the boost and other headers needed should be located.

The other thing to check is that the project configuration matches the build you downloaded, i.e. x86|x64, debug|release, otherwise the libraries and runtime might not be compatible.

Thanks,
Roger

I see from the paths that you are using bioformats-cpp 5.1.8. You might want to try http://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/ome ... cpp/0.1.1/ instead -- this is the current version after the project was split into separate components, and there will be a 0.2.0 release coming out very soon.

I can't see anything specifically wrong at the lines showing the errors. It's likely in the BOOST_NOEXCEPT_IF and/or BOOST_NOEXCEPT_EXPR macros. I wouldn't expect these to be problematic unless there was something significantly different between the compiler used to compile boost and the one you are using, or if there are #defines set which stop these macros working properly. In the first instance, I'd suggest downloading one of the newer builds for OME Files C++ 0.1.1 and retesting with that. If it's still causing problems, we can look at things in more detail.

Just to double-check, you're definitely using the VC12/Visual Studio 2013 compiler with Qt Creator, and not mingw64-gcc or a different VC version? When you retry with ome-files 0.1.1, please could you paste the full output so we can see the command-line used to invoke the compiler?

Roger Leigh

I try the current version http://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/ome%20...%20cpp/0.1.1/, but same issues appear.

Ah, there are two paths you need to include:

ome-files-bundle-xxx\include (you have this one already)
ome-files-bundle-xxx\include\boost-1_60 (this one is missing)

When building with CMake, this is automatically detected and done for you. With Qt Creator/qmake, it needs adding by hand. We could certainly look at removing this versioned directory for a subsequent release; we left it for compatibility with upstream, but it's certainly something that would make using it with other build systems a little easier.


Kind regards,
Roger

I remove the intermediate fold boost-1_60, so it doesn't appear in the previous output.

Just now I try your suggestion, add the path "ome-files-bundle-xxx\include\boost-1_60", but the issue isn't solved.

Our code is built with these options:

(debug) /DWIN32 /D_WINDOWS /W3 /D_DEBUG /MDd /Zi /Ob0 /Od /RTC1 /FS
(release) /DWIN32 /D_WINDOWS /W3 /MD /O2 /Ob2 /DNDEBUG /FS

I thought you were doing a release build? /MDd might be the wrong option? And you might want to try adding the other options above which are missing from your compile options.

I hope that's some help,
Roger

The issue is caused by the VC14 compiler. The VC14 will crash with provided boost library. I change the compiler to VC12 and it works.

Hopefully, your team can provide the library for VC14.

The upcoming 0.2.0 release will provide VC14 builds. You can of course build your own from source rather than use our binary builds if you would like to do so.

In the meantime, you can download a prerelease build from https://ci.openmicroscopy.org/view/File ... /binaries/ (note--it's 64-bit-only and it's also not an official release). We will be making the real release in the next few days.
