Hi:
I am trying to use boost threads with condition variables on hpux with aCC compiler.
The compiler has incomplete support of C++11 standard.
It does not have <chrono> or <thread> headers.
I get the following error message when compiling a program which is using condition variables:
"/usr/local/include/boost/thread/pthread/thread_data.hpp", line 344: error #2135:
namespace "boost::chrono" has no member "steady_clock"
void sleep_until(const chrono::time_point& t)
^
The c++ code is
{
while (bufferIsEmpty[bufferPairNo])
{
boost::unique_lockboost::mutex lock (bufferIsEmptyMutex[bufferPairNo]);
=>> zb_bufferIsEmptyCondVar[bufferPairNo].wait_for (lock, boost::chrono::microseconds (100));
}
}
The version of boost I am using is 1.69.0.
I build boost with:
./bjam -a -j6 install --build-dir=build address-model=64 variant=release link=static \
threading=multi runtime-link=static \
define=BOOST_THREAD_DONT_USE_CHRONO \
--with-date_time --with-filesystem \
--with-system --with-thread
When I look at the boost header file, I see this:
boost/thread/pthread/ thread_data.hpp
#ifdef BOOST_THREAD_USES_CHRONO
template
void sleep_for(const chrono::duration& d)
{
hidden::sleep_for_internal(detail::platform_duration(d));
}
template <class Duration>
line 344 >> void sleep_until(const chrono::time_point& t)
{
sleep_for(t - chrono::steady_clock::now());
}
It appears that the define=BOOST_THREAD_DONT_USE_CHRONO, had no affect.
Have I built this correctly, or is there another problem?
I would greatly appreciate any help on this.
Best regards,
John
