Problem building Crypto++ with C++Builder XE5 - EMBARCADERO - RAD Studio 12.0

[Giuseppe Zagari]

Hi, 

I need to build Crypto++ with the compiler C++Builder XE5 - EMBARCADERO - RAD Studio 12.0,

but unfortunately I got errors for all 5.6.5, 5.6.4, 5.6.3, 5.6.2 and 5.6.1 versions.

Do you have some hint for solve the problem?

Thanks in advance, GZ

Well, its hard to say because we don't know what the errors are.

You might try using Master. A few compile errors were fixed recently. Also see https://github.com/weidai11/cryptopp/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20label%3Aborland%20

<math.h> and <cmath> can be tricky. What I have found is, as soon as we change to std::log, then another compiler breaks. In fact, we were trying to use std::log but early Borland compilers had trouble with it.

I'm thinking maybe we need something like:

  #ifdef __BORLANDC__
    using std::log
  #endif

These sound like we are missing an include. Looking at bench1.cpp (https://github.com/weidai11/cryptopp/blob/master/bench1.cpp) we _don't_ include our "stdcpp.h" or <math.h> or <cmath>.

What I've found with this one is, inlining make s_registry go missing.

Or sometimes, there are different copies of s_registry under the As-If rule. One copy will register some algorithms, the other copy will register other algorithms, and you will get an occasional exception about "no object factory found".

Usually I try to stop inlining like in https://github.com/weidai11/cryptopp/blob/master/config.h#L648 .

We started tracking this at https://github.com/weidai11/cryptopp/issues/520

We need the issue because we will probably break another compiler when making the changes. The change control item will (at least) allow us to refer to something.

GZ,

Can you try this commit and report back: https://github.com/weidai11/cryptopp/commit/642cf3aa7486b0f4d1414e46ffe26d3f6a961b0c

It tested good under GCC 4.1, GCC 7.2, MSVC, SunCC on Solaris and IBM XL/C on AIX.
