Installing PySide - OSX - c++

Anyone had success installing and using PySide on OSX? I am following the install instructions on the PySide site, though I'm running into issues building the API Extractor. I run cmake on the CMakeLists.txt file inside the api extractor dir and:
This error is thrown-
CMake Error at /Applications/CMake 2.8-0.app/Contents/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:894 (message):
Unable to find the requested Boost libraries.
Unable to find the Boost header files. Please set BOOST_ROOT to the root
directory containing Boost or BOOST_INCLUDEDIR to the directory containing
Boost's headers.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
CMakeLists.txt:5 (find_package)
I am new to building source w/ cmake and I'm not event really sure what Boost is. Any light you might shed on the set up process would be great.
Thanks

You may want to check the newest release of PySide, out very recently, I believe the dependency on the Boost libraries has been removed.

It's a set of quite widespread C++ libraries, they're probably needed by PySide, even though I've never tried it.
Download them from there:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.42.0/
Otherwise, you can install them from macports: http://www.macports.org once you've installed macports, just run "sudo port install boost". Unluckily, pyside itself doesn't seem to be in macports yet.

CMake error in CLion after updating CMake

I am relatively new to coding in C++ and using CMake. I have been writing code using CLion IDE on ubuntu 16.04. I had written a library, with an older version of CMake (I believe it was version 3.4) which came bundled with CLion and for an unrelated reason needed to update to version 3.15. Which I assume I must have done incorrectly.
When reloading Cmake projects that previously ran fine, I get the following error message:
Found Qt4: /usr/bin/qmake (found version "4.8.7")
CMake Error at cmake-build-debug/_deps/eigen-src/cmake/language_support.cmake:33 (file):
file failed to open for writing (Permission denied):

Call Stack (most recent call first):
cmake-build-debug/_deps/eigen-src/test/CMakeLists.txt:19 (workaround_9220)
I have looked through a numeber of Cmake questions which I thought could be related to my issue but none of them seemed to address this specific issue. I am not very familiar with the Cmake installation and setup and simply followed a youtube tutorial to install the latest release(cmake-3.15.5-Linux-x86_64.sh)from the cmake.org site.
I should point out that CMake does work when I run ROS packages from the terminal which is why I am apprehensive about re-installing everything. I am assuming the issue is related to where the cmake file is installed but not sure how to fix this issue with CLion. I would appreciate any and all suggestions.
I have also tried to export CMAKE_ROOT to the locaton of the new cmake folder but it doesn't really have any effect.

Cmake doesn't find boost windows

I'm trying to run this code:
https://github.com/snukky/news-translit-nmt
I've installed boost and got the following messages:

By the comment of #kenba I've added the following environment variables:

I've also tried working with Linux WSL (But problems with CUDA installation overthere, their team is working on it), Linux VirtualBox (Not enough resources), and Ubuntu 17.10 I have installed (But Cuda requires Ubuntu 16.04 / 18.04)
What am I missing here? I'm trying any suggestion, stuck on it for a few days. Thanks!
Edit:
I reinstalled Ubuntu 16.04 and the problem was solved. Still don't know how to solve it in windows, but i'll continue use Ubuntu 16.04.
I had this problem earlier while trying to build the Windows version of Marian NMT (the same component that you're having trouble with). I can't remember the exact steps to solve the problem, but the root cause is that the Marian NMT build for Windows does not work with newer versions of Boost, since the source code uses some deprecated calling conventions for timer and chrono libraries (maybe some others as well).
The error message kind of confirms this: it can't find Boost, but on the other hand it says it finds your version 1.67.0. The solution is to use an older version of boost, I've confirmed that it works with 1.60.0.
If you just require a Marian NMT decoder that works in Windows, a project I work on has released a plugin for the Trados Studio translation tool, which contains a compiled marian-decoder executable for Windows: https://object.pouta.csc.fi/fiskmo/TradosStudio/FiskmoTranslationProvider.sdlplugin. You can access the executable by unzipping the sdlplugin file, the StartMtPipe.bat shows how to use the decoder.

Ubuntu OpenCV not compiling

I'm trying to compile OpenCV 3.2 with contributions with the following commands:
1.
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/ -DOPENCV_EXTRA_MODULES_PATH=/home/matteo/Desktop/Xilinx/OpenCV/source/opencv_contrib/modules/ /home/matteo/Desktop/Xilinx/OpenCV/source/opencv-3.2.0/
2.
make -j7 # runs 7 jobs in parallel
3.
sudo make install
Can you explain why I get

I'm working with Ubuntu 16.04 . I already had OpenCV on the system: maybe I unistall it in the wrong way? I remember to compile OpenCV 3.2 with the same command used above.
You must have matching versions of the opencv_contrib and the opencv itself.
Under the opencv github, go to the OpenCV releases and download the 3.2.0 (it should be the same in the master branch).
Now, go to https://github.com/opencv/opencv_contrib/releases and download the 3.2.0. Then you will have both versions matching.
After that all the cmake commands found on the README.md at opencv_contrib master branch should work fine.
I get the same error, that exact error, around the protobuf. There's another error on the xfeatures2d module, too, if your delete the dnn modules (so they don't get configured/built). My problem is, I need the "non-free" xfeatures2d module. :(
The problem appears to be in the opencv_contrib, in the DNN and xfeatures2d modules, but I'm not sure how to fix it. the call to ocv_download seems to be having empty inputs, even though the dnn and xfeatures2d cmake files are passing in arguments. I am not even a novice with cmake, so I'm not sure how to troubleshoot further.
I get this error on both Mac configuring for XCode and on Windows configuring for Visual Studio, using the latest version of cmake-gui, 3.8.0-rc3.
EDIT: I think I've found the issue, though. I opened an issue in the opencv_contrib github. There is a call to ocv_download in the dnn and xfeatures2d cmake files that uses FILENAME as the first parameter, but should be using PACKAGE instead. When I changed the parameters to PACKAGE, CMake successfully configured opencv with the opencv_contrib modules.
Hope this helps! :)
You might not use the same version of opencv and opencv_contrib
https://github.com/opencv/opencv_contrib/archive/<version>.zip
https://github.com/opencv/opencv/archive/<version>.zip
like master or 3.2.0
SHORT
You need to have the same version in opencv and opencv_contrib (.../opencv_contrib/modules/... belongs to an independent repo).
Either the same release or the last commit in BOTH repositories.
Check which version you have and move the other. In your case, I guess you have to change the version of opencv_contrib, then move to the release with git or download it from github.
git checkout <number_opencv_version i.e. 3.2.0>
LONG
I guess as Ken Lee, that you do not have the same version in the repositories.
As Matt referenced in the opened issue, there is a problem with the call of ocv_download because the version is not the one that was used when opencv-3.1, therefore it fails because the parameter is not the expected one.
It happens to me when I was using opencv 3.1.0 and the last version of opencv_contrib. You could change the cmake files one by one, but it is easier to take the correct version in each repo.
There is a right conflict in your build folder (may result from your previous sudo make install). I don't remember how I fixed it, but you can try recursively chown to both source and build folders (or chmod to 777).

Installing the SFGUI with Cmake

I've been trying to install SFGUI library with Cmake tool with instructions given here: SFGUI Install Tutorial . Still got many problems in major with Cmake, which couldn't find few files from SFGUI directory, for example
CMake Error: The source "D:/SFGUI-master/CMakeLists.txt" does not match the source "D:/SFGUI-0.3.0/CMakeLists.txt" used to generate cache. Re-run cmake with a different source directory.
Restarting didn't help. Could anyone write how to install this in simple steps? Regards.
cmake is telling you that the files it has generated in it's cache from a previous run don't match the source files you are currently using. I would imagine that you ran cmake, then switched git branches or tags and tried to run cmake again. You can just rm -r CMakeFiles in your build directory to remove the cache. Then you should be able to run cmake again without errors.
Thanks! It moved a little bit, but stopped actually at error:

To be honest, I will write down steps I did: 1.Configured SFML in VS15 in Windows 8.1 2. I installed the newswet version of CMake 3. Installed also newest SFGUI from Github. 4.In Cmake GUI as a build I choose my project in VS and as a source - SFGUI directory. 5.In CMake Configure and there are the errors. Did I missed something?

CMake error when compiling out of tree model in gnu radio

I have a problem and I can't seem to find a solution to it. I am building a project using gnuradio and in the process of building an OOT module i always get the following error after $cmake ../ (I followed the instruction from the GNU site though)
$ cmake ../
-- Build type not specified: defaulting to release.
-- Could NOT find Boost
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:63 (message):
Boost required to compile trial
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
Please any help will be deeply appreciated (And please I am a noob so kindly have it easy on me).
Enable the debug output for the FindBoost module when invoking cmake, it'll help you pinpoint which packages are missing:
$ cmake -DBoost_DEBUG=ON ../
Here's a similar problem on kubuntu 14.04: https://github.com/antoinet/gr-acars2/issues/2.
The solution was to install the missing libboost-filesystem-dev and libboost-system-dev packages.
The basic issue is that 1 or more Boost components (e.g., system, threads, filesystem) is/are not being found, so you need to get it/them installed. How you do the install depends on your OS. So ... what OS are you trying to do this on?
Also, how did you install GNU Radio in the first place? Any package manager with its salt will make sure dependencies are installed correctly along with the actual package. If you used MacPorts or apt-get or yum to install GNU Radio, Boost should have been installed.
