gcc compiler error when building on raspbian - c++

I am trying to build openvibe! source code on raspbian and i have installed all the required dependencies, one by one manually, but in the end it seems to have a compilation error.
So after writing build files it says:
-- Build files have been written to: /home/pi/Desktop/openvibe-2.0.0-src/build/sdk-Release
Generation succeeded!
Building project...
and:
[1/340] Building CXX object build-tool...
[some dirty code here]
and then stops building sdk
returning this :
c++: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-msse2’
ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.
ERROR: Build failed
Error while building sdk
I want to make it clear that i have searched everywhere and SOF is my last resort! So any help would be highly appreciated!

Judging by the output, you are building the library using cmake.
-msse2 is gcc compilation flag, which enables x86 sse vectorisation. Since you are compiling for raspbian you need to disable it.
Usually, compilation flags are set in CMakeLists.txt files. Find, the place where it was set:
find . -name CMakeLists.txt | xargs grep msse2
You will find something like:
# Switch -msse2 enables vectorization. Remove if your CPU/compiler doesn't support it.
SET(OV_EIGEN_FLAGS "-msse2")
As guided, remove every occurrence, and you are done.

Cannot run Fortify with multi CPU for a C++ project

I have a C++ project setup with CMake, running on Mac. Recently I am looking into adding Fortify to do auto code analyzation. I am using Fortify version 22.1.
After set up the CMake and shell scripts, I found that if I compile with more than one CPU (using -j), the compiler (c++ or g++) will have issues generating the libs. Sometimes it will pass and successfully generate the Fortify output, but others it will just error out. Multi CPUs compile fine for this project without running Fortify.
I also see this error when I compile with Fortify (no matter it success or not):
[error]: Translator execution failed. Please consult the Troubleshooting section of the User Manual.
Translator returned status 1:
error: unable to handle compilation, expected exactly one compiler job in ''
This error always happens after a "Linking CXX xxxxx xxxx". I can't find any documentation about them.
Does anyone know how to solve this? Thank you.
Update more details about my setup:
I use shell files to wrap the sourceanalyzer like this:
#!/bin/bash
exec sourceanalyzer -b MyApp /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/c++ "$#"
And my CMake setup like this:
if (${ENABLE_FORTIFY} EQUAL 1)
set(CMAKE_CC_COMPILER ${AVSxAppDALDefaultImplementation_SOURCE_DIR}/scripts/fortify-build-cc.sh)
set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER ${AVSxAppDALDefaultImplementation_SOURCE_DIR}/scripts/fortify-build-cxx.sh)
endif()
My shell script to run CMake and then to the scan:
cmake $PACKAGEPATH \
...
-DENABLE_FORTIFY="${ENABLE_FORTIFY}"
echo "---BUILDING---"
make release
if [[ $ENABLE_FORTIFY == 1 ]]; then
echo "---RUNNING FORTIFY SCAN---"
sourceanalyzer -b ${CURRENT_PROJECT_NAME} -scan -f fortify_scan_result_${CURRENT_PROJECT_NAME}.txt
fi

Gradle and Cmake failing to find cpp file that is definitely there

I run gradle to build an android .aar and it reports that it can't find a file, but the file definitely is there.

Could anyone help? I am kind of running out of ideas on this.
I discovered it was because I had 'caseSensitive' flags enabled on some of my directories. Be careful, this is a new feature of WSL2 and there are some peculiarities where you may be enabled in without realizing. Windows cmake cannot traverse directories that have this flag enabled on them.

NPM sqlite3 with sqlcipher support

I am trying to cross compile NPM Sqlite3 with sqlcipher support. I am using Ubuntu 16.04 to cross compile for linux armv7 based SOC(system on chip).
So I started with cross-compiling OpenSSL to build sqlcipher for arm. I successfully cross compiled sqlcipher to produce a static library (libsqlcipher.a).
Now I am trying to get the NodeJS side of the project. I need sqlite with sqlcipher support, compiled for arm. I am using SOC SDK to built till now.
I am using node v4.6.1 and npm v2.15.9 to cross compile. I made sure I have the same version installed on Ubuntu as the SOC.
The command I use to cross compile is as follows :
npm install sqlite3 --target_arch=arm --enable-static=yes --build-from-source --sqlite_libname=sqlcipher -fPIC --sqlite=home/onkar/Library/sqlcipher-master/.libs --verbose
I exported the location of the libsqlcipher.a to LDFLAGS. I get the following error when I try to cross compile. Can someone help me with this error?
/home/linuximage/sdk/sysroots/x86_64-angstromsdk-linux/usr/libexec/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/gcc/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/5.2.1/real-ld: error: /home/Library/sqlcipher-master/.libs/libsqlcipher.a(sqlite3.o): requires unsupported dynamic reloc R_ARM_THM_MOVW_ABS_NC; recompile with -fPIC
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
node_sqlite3.target.mk:129: recipe for target 'Release/obj.target/node_sqlite3.node' failed
make: *** [Release/obj.target/node_sqlite3.node] Error 1
Please let me know if you require any additional information, I would be more than happy to provide you with the same.
Thanks,
Onkar
In the first instance, you should check if the -fPIC (position independent code) flag was correctly applied when the libsqlcipher.a file was originally created.
In your output above, it looks like the linker is using the file at:
/home/Library/sqlcipher-master/.libs/libsqlcipher.a
Run the command
objdump -r /home/Library/sqlcipher-master/.libs/libsqlcipher.a | more
... and check for a line close to the start of the output beginning with the text
RELOCATION RECORDS FOR
If you see this line, then the library doesn't contain position independent code.

How to enable --debug-only in LLVM build with cmake?

I am building LLVM with cmake and Ninja build generator as following:
cmake path/to/llvm/ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DLLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=1 -DLLVM_ENABLE_CXX1Y=1 -DLLVM_ENABLE_RTTI=1 -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="X86" -G Ninja
Now I a am trying to use the -debug-only=mytype option of opt to print some debug information about my own passes: using the following in my passes code:
define DEBUG_TYPE "mytype"
DEBUG(errs() << "My debug message\n");
Running opt as following doesn't generate any output messages:
opt < a.bc > /dev/null -mypass -debug-only=mytype
According to LLVM documentation:
For performance reasons, -debug-only is not available in optimized build (--enable-optimized) of LLVM.
I suspect this to be the root of my issue, but I can't find how to turn on/off this option when using cmake to build llvm.
It is controlled by enabling assertions.
cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=ON is enough to turn it on. If you don't see your debug output, then your code is not executed.
I am adding here a complement answer to my question. As #Joky said, cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=ON must be specified when compiling llvm. Also, because my passes are built outside the llvm source tree, assertions must also be enabled when building the passes.

How to cross compile alljoyn standard core and service framework?

I have one wifi camera with armv5 processor and want to cross compile and alljoyn standard core, service framework and want to make notification producer application.
But I am stuck while cross compiling alljoyn. I am compiling alljoyn with codesourcery arm cross compiler with gcc version 4.3.3
Initially I have used same command, used to compile standard core and service framework. Just added CROSS_COMPILE and CPU flag for arm and crosscompiler. Here is the command used, compilation process fails with some error related to -std=c++11
command:
scons BINDINGS=cpp WS=off BT=off ICE=off OS=linux CPU=arm CROSS_COMPILE="/home/CodeSourcery/Sourcery_G++_Lite/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-" SERVICES="about,notification,controlpanel,config,onboarding,sample_apps"
error:
....
prints for copying header files to 'build' dir
....
/* On compilation of first cc file */
cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option "-std=c++11"
scons: ***
[build/linux/arm/debug/obj/services/config/cpp/samples/ConfigClientSample/ConfigClientMain.o] Error 1
After this failure I found following link,
https://wiki.allseenalliance.org/develop/building_and_running
It says that we can compile alljoyn for openwrt on cross compiling. So I have prepared and executed following command:
scons BINDINGS=cpp WS=off BT=off ICE=off OS=openwrt CPU=openwrt TARGET_PATH=/home/CodeSourcery/Sourcery_G++_Lite/bin/ TARGET_CC=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc TARGET_CFLAGS="-std=c++0x" TARGET_CPPFLAGS="-std=c++0x" TARGET_CXX=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++ TARGET_LINK=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc TARGET_LINKFLAGS="" TARGET_AR="" TARGET_RANLIB="" STAGING_DIR=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu SERVICES="about,notification,controlpanel,config,onboarding,sample_apps"
But getting error before compilation starts,
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
Checking c++ compiler support for -std=c++11 flag... no
Checking c++ compiler support for -std=c++0x flag... no
*** Compiler too old to build AllJoyn. Aborting.
So here is my questions,
1. Is it possible to cross compile alljoyn standard client and services without using openwrt?
2. Does cross compiling using openwrt affect any functionality of alljoyn?
3. What should I do to overcome c++11/c++0x error, should I find new gcc version for cross compiling my code.
Please let me know if some one has cross compiled alljoyn standard core and service framework for any platform, please provide me steps/command for that.
Thanks in advance.
Pratik
These steps to cross compile AllJoyn worked for me.
