[Trilinos-Users] Problem building Trilinos-10.8 with Trikota/Stokhos

Tue Oct 4 19:02:19 MDT 2011

Thanks. After much experimentation, I seem to have hacked my way to
success.

"sysdetails_ASL" seems to be related to shared library build of Dakota.
Dakota installs fine as a stand-alone program with static ampl, ddace, etc.
libraries. So, I edited the file .../TriKota/src/CMakeLists.txt to force a
static build of Dakota.

Next, ld couldn't seem to locate libboost_signals.a when linking
libtrikota.so, despite libboost_signals.a being located in /usr/lib and
having Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS set to /usr/lib. The workaround was to run
"do-configure", then before running "make" edit
<build_dir>/packages/TriKota/src/cmake_install.cmake by replacing (~line
71):

IF(NOT CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT OR "${CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT}" STREQUAL
"Unspecified")
  FILE(INSTALL DESTINATION "${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/lib" TYPE FILE FILES
"/home/dustin/Programs/Trilinos/trilinos-10.8.0-dynamic/build/packages/TriKota/Dakota/install/lib/libboost_signals.a")
ENDIF(NOT CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT OR "${CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT}" STREQUAL
"Unspecified")

with

IF(NOT CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT OR "${CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT}" STREQUAL
"Unspecified")
  FILE(INSTALL DESTINATION "${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/lib" TYPE FILE FILES
"/usr/lib/libboost_signals.a")
ENDIF(NOT CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT OR "${CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT}" STREQUAL
"Unspecified")

With this, I could build and install TriKota, but ld was unable to locate
libdakota.a when linking libstokhos.so. I tried your suggestion of adding
the following to <source_dir>/packages/stokhos/src/CMakeLists.txt:

LINK_DIRECTORIES(${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}
    ${PACKAGE_BINARY_DIR}../TriKota/Dakota/install/lib/)

but for some reason that didn't work. After digging around in the CMakeLists
file, I found the following:

IF (${PACKAGE_NAME}_ENABLE_TriKota)
  INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(
      ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/../../TriKota/Dakota/install/include
    )
ENDIF()

so I tried changing it to read:

IF (${PACKAGE_NAME}_ENABLE_TriKota)
  INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(
      ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/../../TriKota/Dakota/install/include
    )
  LINK_DIRECTORIES(
     ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/../../TriKota/Dakota/install/lib
  )
ENDIF()

That also didn't work. The only way I was able to successfully link
libstokhos.so was to copy all of the files in TriKota/Dakota/install/lib to
/usr/lib.

Anyway, that seems to have done the trick, and everything appears to be
functioning. I find it strange that ld won't look in /usr/lib when linking
libtrikota.so and won't look  anywhere except /usr/lib when linking
libstokhos.so, but I can't seem to change this.

Thanks again for the suggestions,
Dustin
