Compiling on Mac using CMake. ( error: use of undeclared identifier 'INFINITY' and more) about mitsuba

[wjakob]

Hi @kevenv,

I'm currently reviving the build system to work on modern machines and c++11/14 capable compiler. Note: The OSX version already sort of works but still has weird issues with Retina displays -- I'm on it, but it may still take 1-2 weeks..

@crekIron problem goes away for me on Ubuntu 20.04, if I add the following line to my config.py

GLINCLUDE = ['/home/arpita1/projects/dependencies_fedora/include']

where /home/arpita1/projects/dependencies_fedora is this repo.

Hi,

So just to give you some update, I went throw this error by changing my compiler and asking the compiler to use -std=gnu++14 :

ccmake .. -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/local/Cellar/gcc/6.1.0_1/bin/gcc-6 -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/local/Cellar/gcc/6.1.0_1/bin/g++-6

Then I got another error in boost library :

/Users/Stephane-lb/Projects/mitsuba/dependencies/include/boost/multi_index/sequenced_index.hpp:211:61: error: call of overloaded 'make_reverse_iterator(boost::multi_index::detail::sequenced_index<boost::multi_index::detail::nth_layer<2, mitsuba::detail::mutable_pair<void*, mitsuba::detail::TLSEntry>, boost::multi_index::indexed_by<boost::multi_index::hashed_unique<boost::multi_index::tag<mitsuba::detail::PerThreadData::key_tag>, boost::multi_index::member<mitsuba::detail::mutable_pair<void*, mitsuba::detail::TLSEntry>, void*, &mitsuba::detail::mutable_pair<void*, mitsuba::detail::TLSEntry>::first> >, boost::multi_index::sequenced<boost::multi_index::tag<mitsuba::detail::PerThreadData::seq_tag> > >, std::allocator<mitsuba::detail::mutable_pair<void*, mitsuba::detail::TLSEntry> > >, boost::mpl::v_item<mitsuba::detail::PerThreadData::seq_tag, boost::mpl::vector0<mpl_::na>, 0> >::iterator)' is ambiguous
  reverse_iterator       rend(){return make_reverse_iterator(begin());}

So I replaced it with the boost version installed using brew. And at the moment, I am here with a new kind of error concerning these files :

                 from /usr/include/dispatch/dispatch.h:48,

I am going to investigate more and more until it will compile, if you have any suggestions, it would help !

Thanks,

Stéphane

P.S : https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63651 a better detailed report of this bug.

Hi @stephane-lb,

apologies for the delay. Basically the CMake build system is semi-broken (and has only ever really worked on Windows in any case). I would try with SCons.

Best,

Hi @wjakob ,

It is absolutely O.K. I perfectly understand that you spent less time on Mitsuba, I supposed you were working on PBRT ( Thanks for the v3 by the way).

So I continue to investigate and based on your comment I tried to use scons, I wrote a new config files for 10.12 and I am close to get it down ... I just got an issue with openEXR during the linking process...

config.py

And the error is :

      vtable for Imf_2_2::TypedAttribute<std::string> in bitmap.os
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64

It is something you met in the past with Nori, I have not found how to solve it yet ... Any idea ?
(I am using the dependencies provided by homebrew for most of them)

Hi,

Just for those who will get the same issue, I just recompile openEXR from scratch and it passed.
( without using homebrew )

One last error I think and it would be finished :

In file included from include/mitsuba/mitsuba.h:51:
include/mitsuba/core/tls.h:140:14: error: allocation of incomplete type
      'GLEWContextStruct'
                return new ValueType();

I will let you know,

Thanks for your help,

Hi, I'm having a similar issue using the supported method described in Mitsuba's doc.

1. git checkout Mitsuba/ 1de9467 (Qt4,v0.5.0)

I am using this version as dependencies for v0.6.0 has not been updated.

2. hg clone https://www.mitsuba-renderer.org/hg/dependencies_macos
3. cp build/config-macos10.12-clang-x86_64.py config.py
4. scons

Thank you,

EDIT:
Works with latest version of dependencies_macos (https://github.com/mitsuba-renderer/dependencies_macos) but not the version at (https://www.mitsuba-renderer.org/hg/dependencies_macos) as mentioned in the doc.
The documentation (https://www.mitsuba-renderer.org/releases/current/documentation_lowres.pdf) should be updated.

[stephane-lb]

Hi @wjakob,

I suppose that the issue is on the Qt Client side, so you probably have issue with the pixel Ratio of your Retina displays. With Qt you have http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qwindow.html#devicePixelRatio to get it and you will have to edit some plist files.

Thanks for all your work,

Stephane

Were you able to handle the GLEWContextStruct error @stephane-lb. I am getting the same error on arch linux.
