highlight 3.34

[1-61803]

I tried updating it but it fails building. It seems a problem with the boost library.

[Schamschula (Marius Schamschula)]

In bcd7d59/macports-ports:

highlight: update to version 3.34

Closes: #53542

[1-61803]

Could you comment on the log I attached?

2nd try, full log

[Schamschula (Marius Schamschula)]

I've attached a patch and a modified Portfile. I have no machine running OS X 10.8 (I don't see this build issue under El Capitan and Sierra), so I cannot test this.

[Schamschula (Marius Schamschula)]

I tried building highlight 3.34 under Leopard (10.5). It gets past this particular issue, but runs into a problem as unique_ptr is not defined (c++ library is too old).

On Snow Leopard, Mac OS X 10.6.8, the same error is presented as:

./core/rtfgenerator.cpp: In member function ‘virtual std::string highlight::RtfGenerator::maskCharacter(unsigned char)’:
./core/rtfgenerator.cpp:279: error: ‘to_string’ was not declared in this scope

3rd try, problem with unique_ptr as you mentioned

[1-61803]

I tried your fix on 10.8.5 and ran into the same problem with unique_ptr.

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

With the patch applied build went with CXX="/usr/bin/llvm-g++-4.2" a bit further:

./cli/main.cpp: In member function ‘int HLCmdLineApp::run(int, const char**)’:
./cli/main.cpp:411: error: ‘unique_ptr’ was not declared in this scope
./cli/main.cpp:411: error: expected primary-expression before ‘>’ token
./cli/main.cpp:411: error: ‘generator’ was not declared in this scope
make[1]: *** [main.o] Error 1

I also observed that some files seem to have been compiled twice (just a block from the beginning):

Unfortunately, 10.8 (and below) don't provide libc++. See:

LibcxxOnOlderSystems

for your options.

[1-61803]

Could this still be patched, if I correctly understood ​this post, with auto_ptr?

[1-61803]

See #53994 re v3.36.
