We are using Boost 1.54. The issue i have is a strange problem with the ASIO library. We have two libraries build using ASIO from Boost 1.54 (libpcl and one of our own libraries). For some reason, despite being built with the same version of boost, the layout of class task_io_service differs between the two libraries. The member function instantiations are in the libraries as weak symbols, so we do not get a link error, but which version of each function that is called from any given place is unpredictable, and varies when we change out own code. In particular, at least op_queue_ and all following members have offsets that differ by 8 bytes (the size of a 64-bit pointer) between the two builds. The result is that sometimes the op_queue back pointer is corrupted (by the other version setting stopped_), or the stop flag is not seen because it was set by the other build. The result is either that run() returns immediately without doing anything, or out application crashes from trying to dereference an invalid pointer. (Often what is supposed to be a NULL back pointer is set to 1, which does not compare equal to NULL). I have looked for conditionally compiled elements in task_io_service, op_queue, and epoll_reactor with no luck. I can see no reason the two library builds should end up with different class layouts. So, does anybody have any clue what might be happening here? Or how to go about fixing the problem? [I hesitate to try forcing strong symbols in our library, since this would break libpcl, due to many functions being inline]. -- View this message in context: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/boost-asio-cross-library-link-issue-tp468...
