Trying to compile OpenDNP3 on Ubuntu 14.01.1

[Nick_Sef]

Hi All,

I'm trying to install OpenDNP3 on my VirtualBox Image of Ubuntu 14.01.1. My intention is to create a Master and Slave virtual box network to study DNP3 traffic, I intend to use CodeLite (codelite.org) as my C++ development IED. Unfortunately, I'm having some difficulties compiling the libraries using the following steps:

#Installing dependencies
sudo apt-get install autoconf libtool g++ git libboost-all-dev

#find 'asio' directory
find /usr/include -name 'asio'

#add asio path as an environment variable
ASIO_HOME=/usr/include/boost/asio

#clone from github
git clone https://github.com/automatak/dnp3

#Build and Install
cd dnp3
sudo autoreconf -f -i
sudo ./configure
sudo make # Breaks here!

Output during the make:

I followed the steps in the Linux Build document (http://dnp3.github.io/doc/2.0.x/building/building-linux.html) and also the Prerequisites. Have I missed something?

Thanks in advance

Opendnp3 doesn't depend on BOOST anymore. It makes use of the non-boost version of ASIO:

http://think-async.com/

I think once you point ASIO_HOME to the include subdirectory of that package you'll be good to go. ASIO is header only, so you don't need to compile anything.

Look at your make command, something is wrong with the segment here:

... -I. -I./cpp/libs/openpal/src -I./cpp/libs/asiopal/src -I -DASIO_STANDALONE ...


The asio.hpp path should have appear next to the -I before -DASIO_STANDALONE
Look at the generated Makefile and the Makefile.am to see this.

[Nick_Sef]

Hi Adam, 

I've tried the non-boost version of ASIO from http://think-async.com/ and still no luck.

I'm literally using a fresh installation of Ubuntu Server 14.1.1 in Virtual Box, 

so if anyone would like to replicate the issue, I have attached my installation bash script along with an output log

Sorry for the month late response.

 

Cheers

Nick

[J Adam Crain]

Hi Nick,

It looks like the configure script is seeing an empty ASIO_HOME environment variable.

"-I./cpp/libs/asiopal/src -I -DASIO_STANDALONE"

The space after -I would normally contain something like "/home/user/asio/asio/include".

I see that you tried to set this in the shell script. Have you tried setting the variable permanently for you user by adding something like this to your .bashrc?

export ASIO_HOME=/home/user/asio/asio/include

I don't know why it isn't picking it up.

-Adam

[Nick_Sef]

Thanks Adam, 

I've now added ASIO Home as a permanent environment variable as you suggested, and I have manage to over come the previous issue, but it seems I have encountered another.

I'm having some trouble compiling the 'strand' class in the ASIO library. Not sure what to do form here.

I have updated and attached the installation scripts along with the terminal logs for anyone who would like to replicate the issue.

Kind Regards, 

Nick

[J Adam Crain]

Hi Nick,

Try using one of the official ASIO releases instead of cloning the tip of the repo:

https://github.com/chriskohlhoff/asio/releases

I know that 1.10.2 & 1.10.3 work. I have not tried 1.10.4 yet.

-Adam

[Nick_Sef]

Thanks Adam!

Managed to compile everything!

I have attached the final script for anyone else who would like to compile and install OpenDNP3.

Kind Regards

Nick

[J Adam Crain]

Excellent.

I've modified the docs to explicitly list that you should use a release version of ASIO, and which versions have been tested.

Happy coding.

Are you working on a personal project or something for your employer?

Thanks for the excellent pointers in here, Nick and Adam -- I've gotten a lot farther towards compiling on Ubuntu 12.04 than I had initially, but I'm still slamming up against a problem. Compilation whirs along until it gets here - any thoughts?

The errors seem to indicate that g++ doesn't understand the C++11 override directive. I think this indicates you're on older oversion of GCC than 4.7.x required to compile the library.

Which branch are you compiling? I just noticed that we forgot to update the version in configure.ac in the 2.0.x branch.

Ah hah! 

     

     gcc version 4.6.3

Shoot, I didn't see that version requirement mentioned in the docs. 

 

Which branch are you compiling? I just noticed that we forgot to update the version in configure.ac in the 2.0.x branch.

I just grabbed the current 2.0.x version from github -- should I have compiled against a specific older branch? Life on the bleeding edge is always so ... exciting!

[Adam Crain]

2.0.x is a fine place to be. There will be some some minor API tweaks in the next feature release, but I would definitely use 2.0.0 over the older 1.1.x branch for any new project.

[ahi...@vcharge-energy.com]

Success!

On my ubuntu 12.04 machine, I needed to install gcc-4.7 and g++-4.7 (and the dependencies that came along with them) from Ubuntu's toolchain PPA:

ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test

Once I did that, I added the following to Nick's sequence above:

export CXX='/usr/bin/g++-4.7'
export CC='/usr/bin/gcc-4.7'
export CPP='/usr/bin/cpp-4.7'

and then re-did the autoreconf, configure and make, which succeeded.

Thanks very much for the pointer about gcc 4.7, Adam -- I'd have been bashing my head on my desk still, without that.
