[Liblas-devel] build problem OS X

[Stuart Edwards]

Hi ~

I'm trying to install libLAS-1.6.0 on OS X 10.6 and have run into a problem during build.  First though, congratulations on the amazing install documentation without which I (a non-programmer) would never have got even to this point.  Everything has gone according to the instructions so far - I've installed boost, cmake and laszip-1.0.1 (actually not mentioned in the documentation).  The configure process has completed successfully for the base and optional libraries, but at build I get seven errors that causes build to fail - I'm trying to build lasinfo, as directed.

The errors all occur in point.cpp.  

1.   Four are missing ";" before "}"  ( at lines 498, 514, 530, and 571) These are all in conjunction with "#endif" statements and adding a seemingly redundant ";" before the "}" makes these errors go away, but may be causing other damage that I'm not aware of. 

2.  Two more are similar to each other -  at lines 563, 791, 

e.g

#ifdef LIBLAS_ENDIAN_AWARE
    boost::uint16_t output = liblas::detail::bitsToInt<boost::int32_t>(output, m_data, pos);
    return output
#else
    boost::uint8_t* data = const_cast<boost::uint8_t*>(&m_data[0] + pos);
    boost::uint16_t* output = reinterpret_cast<boost::uint16_t*>(data);
    return *output;
#endif
;  //(note -- my ";" see 1.above)
}
and the error is:

point.cpp:563: error: no matching function for call to 'bitsToInt(uint16_t&, const std::vector<unsigned char, std::allocator<unsigned char> >&, size_t&)'


3.  The last is:              Command /Developer/usr/bin/g++-4.2 failed with exit code 1

This one is puzzling since I did set CC=/usr/bin/llvm-gcc,   and $CC yields 

i686-apple-darwin10-llvm-gcc-4.2: no input files

Having made it this far I'd like to get this running, so if anyone has any advice it would be much appreciated.

thx

Stu
