ROOT 6 compilation via cling fails

Keywords: mojave Cc:
Port: root6

Description

After updating to macOS10.14 (and reinstalling all ports) I cannot compile my ROOT macros anymore (interpreting does still work, as far as I see). Compiling a simple macro e.g.:

#include "TROOT.h"
#include <iostream>

void test() {
  std::cout<<"adsf"<<std::endl;
}

using root test.C+ fails with various unknown type errors:

Processing test.C+...

ROOT seems to use header files for clang5 while AppleClang is currently at version 10.0. The full log file is attached.

Ok installing some headers solves the problem:

open /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg

comment:2 Changed 6 years ago by cjones051073 (Chris Jones)

Yes, its a requirement to have the command line tools installed.

comment:3 Changed 6 years ago by cjones051073 (Chris Jones)

b.t.w. compiling scripts with ACLiC is really no longer needed, with ROOT6. cling is a proper compiler so use run the scripts interpreted. i.e. without the + at the end...

It was recommended to do this with ROOT5, as CINT was not that good, but cling has fixed this and is fully standards compliant, so really its no longer needed.

I was aware the xcode-select --install is necessary. But nowhere is mentioned that installing macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg is mandatory since mojave. Should this probably be mentioned in the MacPorts installation instructions?

Maybe... Please bring this up on the devel mailing list.

The issue is new and specific to macOS 10.14, which is why its not mentioned.

Also note, not using ACLiC also works around the issue.

A standard installation of the command line tools does not provide /usr/include on Mojave. You can't rely on it existing, and that extra package with the headers will likely go away at some point in the future. System headers are provided by the SDK.

Indeed. However, this is an issue that the upstream ROOT maintainers will have to eventually address. its not MP specific.
