Error when compiling a deal.II app using Trilinos on Apple M1

[blais...@gmail.com]

Dear all,

Hope you are well

Using the candi master branch, I succeeded in compiling deal.II using candi. Everything was smooth. I don't know who took care of that, but awesome work.

When trying to compile an example that uses Trilinos (any), I get the following error that arise from an include in Trilinos

Users/blaisb/work/candi/trilinos-release-12-18-1/include/Tpetra_Import_def.hpp:1171:24: error: no member named 'bind1st' in namespace 'std'; did you mean 'boost::container::bind1st'?

                       std::bind1st (std::equal_to<int> (), -1));

                       ^~~~~

/Users/blaisb/work/candi/deal.II-master/include/deal.II/bundled/boost/container/detail/algorithm.hpp:55:24: note: 'boost::container::bind1st' declared here

inline binder1st<Func> bind1st(const Func& func, const T& arg)

Is there a way around this error? Should I try to manually fix it or switch to another trilinos version?

Thanks!

Bruno

I worked on that. 😃

Interestingly, I didn't see this error in my testing of ASPECT. Are
you saying that a deal.II step like step-32 fails? I think we should
try updating Trilinos first.

Do you want to try 13.2 and see if that works? If not, I will update
the package in candi master when I get to it in a couple of days.

Step-32 worked. I think there was an issue with the way I set-up my dylib. I'll investigate, but it seems that since I was able to run step-32 with MPI, I should be ok on my side also :)

I'll keep you informed if this pops up again.

Still can't get it to work. It seems to be related to a specific Tpetra file:

"Tpetra_Import_def.hpp"

I'll try with a more recent version of Trilinos to see if this fixes thing. Do you think it might be that step-32 does not include this file ?

What program causes the error? Can you post the complete error output?

Updating might help, yes. std::bind1st was removed in c++17 and so
trilinos needs to be updated.

For reference, std::bind1st() is a function that was deprecated with C++11 and
removed with C++17. So if you have a compiler that defaults to C++17, then the
function will no longer exist -- you might want to check what compiler you are
using, and if you can pass -std=c++14 as a flag to "downgrade" it to C++14.

I looked around a little bit, and others have run into similar errors. See
here, for example:
https://github.com/dealii/dealii/issues/6125
On second read, this is actually one of our own github issues :-) But I also
looked into the current Trilinos sources and the file no longer contains the
call to bind1st:

https://github.com/trilinos/Trilinos/blob/master/packages/tpetra/core/src/Tpetra_Import_def.hpp#L1178-L1180
So you might be best served with just using a newer version of Trilinos.

Best
W.

The patch to Trilinos is here:

https://github.com/trilinos/Trilinos/commit/285bbae1720f2cb4379e43ed338dbd2a23bf8ea6
It was committed in November of last year as part of
https://github.com/trilinos/Trilinos/pull/9960

Ohh but that explains everything. In the application that I am trying to compile we set the standard to CXX17 hence it must be forcing the compiler to do so.

Everything is clear with this. Thank you so much :)!

Again, amazing work on the whole candi endeavour.
