vector_set failed in make check

[type-null]

Original problem

When installing CppAD on macOS, after I cloned cppad repo, I used cmake command (in build folder)

$ cmake -D CMAKE_C_COMPILER=gcc-12 -D CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++-12 -D include_ipopt=true ..

which gave the output I will attach in the end. Then, I used make check as indicated in the installation docs. Here is the error message:

[ 83%] Linking CXX executable test_more_general

make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/check.dir/rule] Error 2
make: *** [check] Error 2

I am confused how to resolve this. I installed ipopt (as well as HSL and Mumps) following the Ipopt docs, version 3.14.12.

Thanks!

Update 1

In the cmake output for above, one line says

-- Could NOT find Boost (missing: Boost_INCLUDE_DIR thread)

So I use homebrew to have Boost installed. Then, I also changed the cppad_vectortest to std in the cmake command because I thought it might have something to do with the vector_set test. But I got a new error as follows:

Which version of MacOS are you using ?
I want to try an reproduce the problem using one of the docker images listed below:
https://hakin9.org/docker-osx-run-mac-in-a-docker-container/

Perhaps it is better if we try to debug it on your machine. Please try the following commands in the top source directory:
bin/run_cmake.sh --no_optional --debug_all --cppad_vector
bin/test_one.sh test_more/general/local/vector_set.cpp

The should create and run test_one.exe, a program that only runs the test that is failing.

It's macOS 13.2.1

Here's the output from the second command

Try the following
cd build
make cppad_lib
cd ..
bin/test_one.sh test_more/general/local/vector_set.cpp

I got the same error as above, I might need to change clang to g++ and gcc. How should I modify the last command to do that? Thanks again!

I see the problem, the script is looking for libcppad_lib.so, but on the MAC it should be libcppad_lib.dylib. We need to fix bin/test_one.sh.in so that it also works on the MAC. You can directly edit bin/test_one.sh so that it works for you this purpose.

I changed one line containing that to .dylib and here's the new output

This seems to be a mac problem; e.g., see

AcademySoftwareFoundation/OpenShadingLanguage#1055

Perhaps you need to add an extra include directory for your system ?
