[Boost-users] Boost Serialization: undefined reference to `__assert'

Hello everyone

 

Today, I just happened to download the latest version of cygwin, including
gcc 3.4.4. While a simple hello world works perfectly fine, trying to
compile this code using a statically linked libserialization.a results in
dozens of linker errors, all stating "undefined reference to `__assert'".

 

#include <boost/assign/list_of.hpp>

#include <boost/archive/xml_iarchive.hpp>

#include <boost/archive/xml_oarchive.hpp>

#include <boost/lambda/lambda.hpp>

#include <boost/serialization/vector.hpp>

#include <iostream>

#include <fstream>

 

using namespace boost::lambda;

using namespace boost::assign;

using namespace boost::archive;

using namespace boost::serialization;

using namespace std;

 

int main() {

    {

        vector<string> v = list_of("123")("Boost")("Serialization");

        ofstream ofs("test.xml");

        xml_oarchive oxml(ofs);

        oxml << make_nvp("VectorTest", v);

    }

 

    {

        vector<string> v;

        ifstream ifs("test.xml");

        xml_iarchive ixml(ifs);

        ixml >> make_nvp("VectorTest", v);

        for_each(v.begin(), v.end(), cout << _1 << "\n");

    }

 

    return 0;

}

 

 

Is this a problem or known issue when using cygwin? I'm using eclipse in
addition, by the way. The code works perfectly fine on other platforms, so I
imagine it must be a problem when using the serialization library with
cygwin.

 

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer me here and best regards
