I am trying to use the new Boost.Log library in a project I am working on. The project is built with CMake. I am receiving link errors claiming that the linker has come across undefined references to Boost.Log

Linking CXX executable main
CMakeFiles/main.dir/main.cpp.o: In function `main':
main.cpp:(.text+0x30): undefined reference to `boost::log::v2s_mt_posix::trivial::logger::get()'

I have a simple hello world test that fails with these errors. If I am linking against the Boost.Log libraries what would cause it to generate an undefined reference error?

main.cpp:

#include <boost/log/trivial.hpp>
int main(int argc, char* const argv[]) {
  BOOST_LOG_TRIVIAL(info) << "Hello World";
}

CMakeLists.txt:

CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED(VERSION 2.8)
FIND_PACKAGE(Boost 1.54 COMPONENTS log REQUIRED)
FIND_PACKAGE(Threads)
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${Boost_INCLUDE_DIR})
ADD_EXECUTABLE(main main.cpp)
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(main ${Boost_LOG_LIBRARY} ${CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT})

看起来它归结为链接到 Boost.Log 的共享版本。

Boost.Log的文档中有一些关于该问题的详细 信息您的错误消息提到了命名空间boost::log::v2s_mt_posix，并且从文档中，这意味着链接器期望链接到 Boost.Log 的静态版本。

如果您想链接到共享版本，您似乎需要定义BOOST_LOG_DYN_LINKor BOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK，即在您的 CMakeLists.txt 添加：

ADD_DEFINITIONS(-DBOOST_LOG_DYN_LINK)

如果要链接到 Boost.Log 的静态版本，则需要在调用之前FIND_PACKAGE(Boost ...)添加一个 CMake 变量：

SET(Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS ON)
FIND_PACKAGE(Boost 1.54 COMPONENTS log REQUIRED)

有关影响 CMake 如何找到 Boost 的更多变量，请参阅FindBoost.

对于 CMake 3.15（和一些早期版本），以下似乎足以使用 CMake 构建 Boost.Log 而不会出现原始链接器错误：

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.15)
project(boost_log_tutorial)

SET(Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS ON)           # link statically
#ADD_DEFINITIONS(-DBOOST_LOG_DYN_LINK)  # or, link dynamically

find_package(Boost 1.69.0 COMPONENTS log REQUIRED)

add_executable(boost_log_tutorial main.cpp)
target_link_libraries(boost_log_tutorial Boost::log_setup Boost::log)

关键的事情似乎是链接Boost:log_setupand Boost::log，并指定静态或动态链接SET(Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS ON)or ADD_DEFINITIONS(-DBOOST_LOG_DYN_LINK)。

它是 Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS 而不是 Boost_INCLUDE_DIR。

您可以尝试启用 Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS
