comment:1 Changed 7 years ago by Doadin

This is due to a change that makes libtorrent incompatible with older boost versions. not sure if this is something we can change or should or should report to them?

I'm not sure what you are talking about. Can you provide the full trace please and what incompatibility?

comment:3 Changed 7 years ago by Doadin

Building libtorrent with boost 1.59 yields this result. the incompatibility is like i said with older boost versions eg. 1.59.( compiling libtorrent with boost 1.59 error with boost 1.63.0 no error.)

From what i understand of it here: https://github.com/arvidn/libtorrent/blob/RC_1_1/bindings/python/src/converters.cpp#L85 is a list of defined conversions defined by libtorrent. Now boost has it own set defined by default. A change in 1.1.x (RC_1_1) has introduced a change that uses a new type but doesn't add the needed converter for compatibility with older boost versions however newer versions of boost eg. 1.63.0 has this already defined so is unnecessary.

The problem is that I am not seeing any such error here and I have both boost 1.55 and 1.58.

What OS are you using? Is there a quick way to replicate?

It would be helpful if you can confirm that is the commit that is at issue?

This is a libtorrent/boost issue so can report your findings upstream.

Hmm. Well I am running windows 10 for my main system and windows 7 w/jenkins for my build system. Which both have had the issue on any build i make with boost 1.59 since 12-12-2016. I have made monthly(sometimes more) builds for a while now. Maybe try boost 1.59 maybe its version specific? All i know it since 12-12-2016 every build i made with the same system the same exact way(automated through jenkins) they would never work. Then i change to 1.63 and all the sudden no error. So i mean just make a build of libtorrent on windows with boost 1.59 and libtorrent branch RC_1_1 and start deluge it should give the error.

Let me know if you test what your results are or if you open a ticket with libtorrent.

Well std_pointer was introduced in 1.63 so that likely 'fixed' the issue. I wonder if it's a windows compiler related.
