patch

Synopsis of changes:
* Added jsoncpp.pc file for pkg-config
* USE_GCC=yes for 9.X to fix compilation problem

An important package devel/cmake depends on jsoncpp, so I made sure they both build in poudriere in both 10.2 and 9.3.
Comment 1 Yuri Victorovich freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-05-09 21:52:15 UTC
Also switched to github since the new version seem to be distributed from there.

Comment 3 Kurt Jaeger freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-05-10 05:35:15 UTC
There are two other attempts to update jsoncpp, see:

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=200648

and

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=200939

and they both stalled. Does this PR adress the issues raised in the other PRs ?
If yes, how ?
Comment 4 Yuri Victorovich freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-05-10 06:15:30 UTC
Sorry, I didn't see the previous Bug reports.

Now that I read them, they are talking about scons deprecation in favor of cmake build. Going with cmake build obviously creates a problem with circular dependency with cmake.

My patch solves this scons vs cmake problem by going with scons build. It works, with some extra steps added by Makefile.

Since this is such an involved port, I would like to suggest to do an exp-run with the patch to see if anything else breaks. I would be absolutely willing to resolve the issues, unless there are hundreds of them, which is probably unlikely.
Comment 5 Yuri Victorovich freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-05-10 06:24:45 UTC
I asked mat@ if he thinks it makes sense to do an exp-run.
Comment 6 Yuri Victorovich freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-05-14 23:45:25 UTC
I've rebuilt the whole kde4 tree, firefox, thunderbird, chrome, qTox, etc without any failures of any kind in build and run.

So I am fairly confident there is no danger.
Comment 7 Kurt Jaeger freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-05-15 02:04:34 UTC
Thanks for the testing. I've now asked all involved from all jsoncpp-PRs if we can proceed with this update.

Thanks Kurt.

Now I added c++11 because as it turned out jsoncpp has some optional parts of API turned on by the C++ compiler features. c++11 makes users be able to use those if users happen to compile with c++11 option. Otherwise user builds fail with missing symbols in Json:: namespace.

This newer version fails to build on 9.3a:

Builds on other versions are fine.

Sorry about that.
Now it builds on both 9.3 and 10.3.

Comment 18 Roger Leigh 2016-05-20 23:34:19 UTC
Hi folks,

The new jsoncpp fails to build on 10.3/powerpc:

scons: Building targets ...
c++ -o buildscons/linux-gcc-FreeBSD/src/jsontestrunner/main.o -c -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing --std=c++11 -Iinclude -I. src/jsontestrunner/main.cpp
cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option "-std=c++11"
scons: *** [buildscons/linux-gcc-FreeBSD/src/jsontestrunner/main.o] Error 1

Due to still using GCC 4.2.1 on this platform, where the option isn't supported.  Would it be possible to make this port use a newer GCC to build?


Thanks,
Roger
Comment 19 Yuri Victorovich freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-05-20 23:42:21 UTC
Hi Roger,

Why don't try with something like this:
.if (${ARCH} == "powerpc")
USE_GCC=     4.9+
.endif

Please change gcc version to what is desired.
Comment 20 Johan Ström 2016-05-21 17:03:14 UTC
Hi,

could someone else please take maintainership of this port?

Thanks
Comment 21 Johan Ström 2016-05-27 06:10:46 UTC
The /usr/local/libdata/pkgconfig/jsoncpp.pc file installed has an invalid include dir:

prefix=/usr/local
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=/usr/local/lib
includedir=/usr/local/jsoncpp



$ pkg info -l jsoncpp 
jsoncpp-1.7.2:
        /usr/local/include/jsoncpp/json/allocator.h
...
        /usr/local/include/jsoncpp/json/version.h

Additonal patch fixing includedir in .pc

Hi Johan,

You are right, this path is wrong. I am attaching an additional patch fixing this.

The main patch is already committed in r415395, but this bug report is not closed for some reason.

I tried it on powerpc with gcc 4.9, but it fails with a stdlib error, possibly a gcc/clang stdlib mismatch of some sort.  Either that or the jsoncpp #define workaround is broken in this situation.
