Error building openCV - dumpOpenCLDevice() method error - c++

I have been trying to build opencv for over a week now using the instructions at
http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/introduction/linux_install/linux_install.html and http://miloq.blogspot.com/2012/12/install-opencv-ubuntu-linux.html however every time I get to the 'make' step, I get an error:

The process works well for a while and then stops at 79% with the above error. I thought the problem might be caused by the fact that I did not have the OpenCL library installed. I installed it as shown at www.amd-dev.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wordpress/media/2013/07/AMD_APP_SDK_Installation_Notes.pdf and still no luck. I am running ubuntu 12.04 and OpenCV 2.4.9. The installed version of AMD APP SDK is 2.8.1.0. Please help. I am at my wits end here.

I experienced the same problem and solved it for me by compiling OpenCV without modules needing GPU functionality using the following cmake command in the release folder:
cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local -D WITH_OPENCL=OFF -D WITH_CUDA=OFF -D BUILD_opencv_gpu=OFF -D BUILD_opencv_nonfree=OFF -D BUILD_opencv_stitching=OFF -D BUILD_opencv_superres=OFF ..
The following modules are then deactivated: gpu, nonfree, stitching, superres

How to get the emgucv compiled on my Ubuntu 18.04? It is said to support Ubuntu

First I am not very familiar with C++ compile process, but I have to compile the emgucv repository on Ubuntu 18.04. I follow the instruction and try to figure out things by searching through Stack Exchange.
I got every dependencies setup, then the only file I need to execute is this one.
Although it is written for 16.04, seems to work for 18.04, but the compilation throws an error. It says _MAX_DRIVE, _MAX_DIR, _MAX_PATH, DWORD, errno_t, etc. are not declared. As suggested by the comment, they are Windows-specific. The error occurs in this file. And the module that contains this file is this.
My question is how to get this compiled on Ubuntu 18.04? I am very confused, since Emgucv says they support Linux (instruction at the end), and I believe others could have successfully compiled it on their Linux. I attempted to replace those constants _MAX_DRIVE, _MAX_DIR, _MAX_PATH by just numbers, the DWORD by unsigned long, and errno_t by int, then it says now GetModuleFileName, _splitpath_s are not declared. I don't know how to do. Is there anyway for this to work for Ubuntu?

The problem was my c++ compiler: the default gcc 4.6 in ubuntu 12.04 has c++11 support, but it has to be enabled at the command line when calling it. I tried editing /.bashrc to automatically do this, but it didn't work. The solution for me was to install gcc/g++ 4.8 (and use update-alternatives to keep the old installation usable), as described here

Errors When Compiling C++ Application (Apache Thrift)

I'm wanting to do some developing with the C++ program, Apache Thrift, where I will be changing some of the source code and trying to contribute some code to the open source community. To do this, I need to be able to build and install Apache Thrift from source, but I'm getting some errors when I'm trying to build it.
I've searched on Google, but I can't find any answers that fix the problem I've been having. I'm running OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and I think I've installed all of the requirements listed at http://thrift.apache.org/docs/install/.
I think the real problem is when I run make (scroll down if you want to see that info now), but just in case, I'm going to mention everything.
When I run ./bootstrap.sh in the thrift folder as instructed at http://thrift.apache.org/docs/BuildingFromSource/, I get a few warnings at the top of the output, but I don't think if they are a problem as I've seen them in "successful builds." Here are the warnings:
configure.in:3: warning: prefer named diversions
configure.in:3: warning: prefer named diversions
configure.ac: warning: missing AC_CHECK_HEADERS([wchar.h]) wanted by: lib/py/compat/win32/stdint.h:52
If it's needed, here is the entire output of the ./bootstrap.sh command:

Next, I run ./configure which seems to work successfully. When I tried to put the output in my post, I ran out of characters, so in case it's needed, I put the entire output into a Google Doc.
Next I try running make which logs a bunch of errors. I think the culprit is probably this first error:
thriftl.ll:51:21: error: thrifty.h: No such file or directory
I don't know how to fix that error though. Just in case, here is the entire output of the make command:

I've tried Googling many of these errors, but I'm not skilled in C++, and I can't find any help.
What do I need to do to fix these errors?
I believe your'e experiencing the bug described here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-1614.
You probably have automake-1.12 (which is what you'd get with brew install automake), which creates a thrifty.hh file rather than the included thrifty.h. The workaround given in the bug-report is to manually change the include in thriftl.cc to be thrifty.hh. You can also try downgrading automake, if you're using brew this should help.
This problem occurs because automake generates the file "thrifty.hh" rather than "thrifty.h". So there are 2 ways to resolve this problem.
1) Downgrade automake to 1.11.5, then it's fixed;
2) Edit the file "thriftl.cc", search and replace "thrifty.h" with "thrifty.hh", then compile it again.

Error while building FastCGI in a server running ubuntu

I want to interface FCGI with my C++ code in a server that runs ubuntu. I didn't find ubuntu under the list of tested platforms in the FCGI website, but I tried building it anyway.
./configure seems to work okay. But, when I run make, I get 2 errors, as pasted below:
fcgio.cpp: In destructor 'virtual fcgi_streambuf::~fcgi_streambuf()':
fcgio.cpp:50: error: 'EOF' was not declared in this scope

Help in fixing this issue would be greatly appreciated.
I noticed that EOF is a C macro and it requires stdio.h which wasn't included in the fcgio.cpp file.
Adding a #include <stdio.h> to the fcgio.cpp file solves the problem, and now FCGI builds fine on Ubuntu.

fcgio.cpp:50: error: 'EOF' was not declared in this scope

I am attempting to build fastcgi on a Linux Ubuntu 10.x machine.
I run the following commands:
./configure
make
and I get the following error:

I notice that others have had the same problem and have asked this question in various fora etc - however, I have not as yet, seen an answer to this question/problem.
Has anyone ever managed to build fastcgi on Linux?
How do I fix this problem?
EOF is a C macro and seems that you do not have it defined in fcgio.cpp or that something has undefined it. I would first try to add #include <stdio.h> to start of fcgio.cpp.
I had the same problem on Ubuntu 11.10 Linux 64bit. Following most of #paercebal's advice I created the following patch which resolved the problem:
