[aspectc-user] Error After Running Make on Ubuntu 18.04

Fri Aug 16 22:35:53 CEST 2019

Hello,

I am new to this list, and I am trying to test AspectC++. I downloaded the current version 2.2 Linux/x86_64 tarball from http://www.aspectc.org/. After running "make" as described in the README, I got the following:

make -C examples/profiling
make[1]: Entering directory '/data/loewenheim/a/gpajela/Downloads/aspectc++/examples/profiling'

My OS is Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS. However, I tried the same thing on Ubuntu 16.04 in a virtual machine, and I did not get this error. Everything was fine. Could something possibly have changed in Ubuntu 18.04 that causes issues with AspectC++?

In Ubuntu 18.04, I have g++ version 7.4.0 installed. I wondered what would happen if I installed an older version of g++, so I installed g++-5 (sudo apt install g++-5) and tried the same thing, but I still got an error. I saw a related message previously posted on this list, and it said to execute ag++ --gen_config -o parser.cfg. I tried that, and here is the end of the generated file parser.cfg:

--target x86_64-linux-gnu
--gnu 7.4.0
--isystem "/usr/include/c++/7"
--isystem "/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/c++/7"
--isystem "/usr/include/c++/7/backward"
--isystem "/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/7/include"
--isystem "/usr/local/include"
--isystem "/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/7/include-fixed"
--isystem "/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu"
--isystem "/usr/include"

As far as I know, those paths listed are correct. Is there anything else I can do to get this to work under Ubuntu 18.04? I would prefer not to have to run AspectC++ from a virtual machine. If you need any additional details, please let me know. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Gilbert Pajela
