Can't upload diff to Portfile as it matches BadContent entry "rak" + "sha". The developers username, also in the Websites URL, contains that string. Will add Portfile once BadContent entries allow it

It does indeed. Thanks!

Your patch adds this block:

post-patch {
    system "find ${worksrcpath} \\( -name '*.h' -or -name '*.cc' \\) -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i '' -e 's/tr1::/std::/g'" 
    system "find ${worksrcpath} \\( -name '*.h' -or -name '*.cc' \\) -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i '' -e 's/std::std::/std::/g'" 
    system "find ${worksrcpath} \\( -name '*.h' -or -name '*.cc' \\) -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i '' -e '/namespace tr1/d'" 
    system "find ${worksrcpath} \\( -name '*.h' -or -name '*.cc' \\) -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i '' -e '/include/s,tr1/,,'" 
}

Ideally, you would use fs-traverse and reinplace, instead of system calling find, xargs and sed. Maybe something like this (untested):

post-patch {
    fs-traverse f ${worksrcpath} {
        switch [file extension ${f}] {
            .cc -
            .h {
                reinplace {s/std::std::/std::/g} ${f}
                reinplace {/namespace tr1/d} ${f}
                reinplace {/namespace tr1/d} ${f}
                reinplace {/include/s,tr1/,,} ${f}
            }
        }
    }
}

It looks like this will make the port work with compilers that support the final C++11 standard, but fail with compilers that only support the transitional tr1 standard. I wonder if you should only be doing this replacing when configure.cxx_stdlib is libc++. Or alternatively, maybe this code requires libc++; if so, include the cxx11 1.0 portgroup to handle the details. We can wait on this, commit it without such changes, and see whether it fails to build on the older Buildbot workers.

The same comments apply to libtorrent in #52476.

What's the state of the art here? Would be a bit cool to have a working rtorrent in macports.

I managed to use the version in the tree, v0.9.2, by changing the version to v0.9.6, changing the homepage to http://rtorrent.net/, and forcing the compiler to be macports-gcc-6.

I used the same strategy for libtorrent, where I took the v0.13.2 version in tree, changed the verion to 0.13.6, changed the homepage to http://rtorrent.net/, and forced the compiler to macports-gcc-6.

It compiles and runs, although I haven't started to use it as I'm checking whether I can swiftly switch from transmission to it and keeping my states. But I'd prefer a version that compiles with clang, of course.

comment:10 Changed 6 years ago by raimue (Rainer Müller)

The reason this does not work with clang, but works with macports-gcc-* is that the latter by default uses -stdlib=libstdc++, while clang defaults to -stdlib=libc++. This code is so old that it still uses includes headers from tr1/, a proposed standard from around 2005 that predates C++11 and was never part of libc++.

The problem is that code compiled with one C++ standard library is not necessarily compatible with code compiled with another. Therefore you have to be careful when mixing compilers. Even if it compiles, it may crash at runtime.

It appears that upstream actually fixed this in their git repository and got rid of the tr1/ includes, but the latest release 0.13.6 is from 2015 and does not contain these changes.

As upstream does not seem to bother to make releases, we should ditch the rtorrent and libtorrent ports and replace it with rtorrent-devel and libtorrent-devel ports that follow the current development on GitHub.

comment:11 Changed 6 years ago by tsjk (Tamas Jantvik)

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. I haven't tried compiling the master branch at github with clang. Perhaps it'd just work, then. Another option then would perhaps be to append an stdlib flag to clang? Might try both options.

And I do of courre agree with it being a good idea not to mix compilers unless it's a last resort.

Indeed. The following seems to also be a working solution (at least it compiles, seemingly with clang):

I'm on El Capitain by the way, mostly due to laziness now, but previously because I use OpenZFS and macports, which often prohibits instant upgrades. :)
