Status of log4cxx under Windows using VS 2010
Hello,
FWIW, this guy had the best HOW-TO to compile log4cxx on Windows using VS
2010.
http://www.codeproject.com/Tips/492585/How-to-build-log4cxx-with-Visual-Studio-2010
I'm going to be evaluating with my C/C++ app. Is there any known show
stoppers that I should know about (under Windows with VS 2010)?
Thank you,
Joe

Regarding the logs, fallbackerrorhandler.h has not been touched since
0.10.0. And regarding ODBC, I guess you just need to deactivate it for
the build as I said before.

Luckily we have the express editions these days. :-)

Hi Thorsten,
This is discouraging. :( In the research I had done, log4cxx kept turning up
as recommended software and that it was compilable under VC6. I guess that must
have been true of the latest stable release, 0.10.0. It doesn't sound like the
newer/next release of log4cxx can be built under VC6 any more. I guess it's not
too surprising since VC6 is pretty old. Oh well, I tried, and thanks very much
for your help. I still want to try to use log4cxx since it is so highly
recommended, I'll just have to try a newer version of VC.

Sorry, I've missed the link. Regarding ODBC, it seems intptr_t is
missing and needs to be included from somewhere, MSDN suggests
stddef.h. I've implemented a workaround for a maybe similar problem
for C++ Builder, but just can't remember anymore if it was for the
same missing types. Doesn't matter, the important thing is that it's
only applied if C++ Builder is the chosen compile, therefore the
workaround may work for you as well. Search apr-util-build.xml for
"bcc-needs-stdint" and do what it does manually to the mentioned
header file, either with the included stated there or stddef.h or
where ever the missing type comes from. If that fixes some of the ODBC
compile errors we can think of a way to include this workaround in the
build as well.

That's bad, you need to test that on your own using #ifdef ... and
#error in expat.h right before the macro gets defined there.

I guess the warnings there are because of your old compiler, that's
something you need to fiddle on your own... The ODBC error may be
removed using "with-ODBC=no", because the default behavior is "auto",
which enables ODBC by default on Windows. The documentation is wrong
in that part, I fixed that on trunk already but didn't update the
site.
Regarding fallbackerrorhandler.h, I guess the problem here is with
your old compiler as well, but have no idea right now. Have a look at
the file and object.h for the cast macros and see if you somehow can
get them working by rewriting or if they are needed at all...
Sorry, but I don't have the time to look into this any more detailed.

Hi Thorsten,
> You need to provide all of the errors
I thought I did. I provided a link to the complete compile log, with all
errors, here: http://pastebin.com/zpKfm7i9
Regarding the problem with XMLPARSEAPI:
> No idea currently, only found the following which suggests you are
> defining the same macro differently for some reason.
I did a search through my build folders apache-ant-1.9.4, apache-log4cxx-
from-svn.140907, apache-maven-3.2.3, apr, apr-util and there is only one file
that defines XMLPARSEAPI: apr-util\xml\expat\lib\expat.h
If XMLPARSEAPI is being defined differently, it isn't by me that I know of,
since I'm using expat.h as provided by apr-util. In fact, I have not even
attempted to add my own code anywhere since I just want to get log4cxx
compiled.
To see if I could make some progress in getting log4cxx to build, I decided
to temporarily disable ODBC by editing apr-util\include\apu.hw and setting
APU_HAVE_ODBC to zero. Here's the complete log: http://pastebin.com/qcHmZX4f
No error 2 anymore but now there are new and different error and warning
messages. I highlighted them in yellow to make it easy to scroll to them.

You need to provide all of the errors, ODBC should be activated by
default. There might be some problem with your old VC6, I guess only
few people are using it anymore. The build generates or edits some
header files as well, have a look around apu.h*. For some compilers,
like Borland C++ Builder, I had to change the build to include
stdint.h for example, maybe your are missing some headers as well.

No idea currently, only found the following which suggests you are
defining the same macro differently for some reason.

Error code 2 normally means a missing file somewhere, you may use
Process Monitor from Sysinternals to follow the build process and see
which file is missing or try "mvn -X ..." which generates a lot of
debug output.

Hi Thorsten,
You're right -- I downloaded only src by mistake and not trunk so pom.xml
was missing because of that.
I downloaded the latest trunk this morning and have new and different build
errors. Complete log is here: http://pastebin.com/zpKfm7i9
Short version:
1) Multiple errors when building apr_dbd_odbc.c. Of course, odbc is one of
the appenders I do want to use with log4cxx. :(
2) Identical error when compiling xmlparse.c and apr_xml.c:
[cc] C:\Documents and Settings\taa\Desktop\project92\apr-
util\xml\expat\lib\expat.h(83) : note C6311: unknown(0) : see previous

3) Ending build errors:

It normally isn't, it doesn't matter which client or OS you use to
checkout, you should always get the same content. Did you maybe only
checkout "src" instead of trunk?

That shouldn't be necessary and is unsupported by Subversion as well,
you should avoid such things. Instead checkout using Tortoise again
and double check the paths you select in the browser and get
afterwards in your file system. I user Tortoise myself, there really
is no problem with checking out trunk or whatever. I even checked out
the whole directory structure with all tags and branches.

This is by default available on newer versions of Windows, so just buy
a Windows 8 and get happy. ;-) I removed the logic which used
where.exe, it has been introduced to make the build usable with
another compiler, but it looks as if this goal can't be reached with
the current approach anyways. So update your trunk and give it another
try.

Hi Thorsten,
I had used TortoiseSVN Repository Browser to download trunk and didn't
realize it would be incomplete. I did an 'svn checkout' on my Linux box to
get a brand new copy of trunk as of Sep 5, 2014. Now 'mvn package' gets a
lot further, but now it gives a build failure with the following message:
-----

pom.xml is the file and needed and should be contained in your
checkout, depending on what you checked out exactly you might just be
in the wrong path. You need to execute maven directly from the
directory containing pom.xml, should be trunk.

Hi again Thorsten,
I appreciate your patience as I work through all these dependencies.
I downloaded and extracted the latest stable version of Maven:
C:\Documents and Settings\taa>mvn --version
Apache Maven 3.2.3 (33f8c3e1027c3ddde99d3cdebad2656a31e8fdf4; 2014-08-
11T13:58:10-07:00)
Maven home: C:\Documents and Settings\taa\Desktop\project92\apache-
maven-3.2.3
Java version: 1.8.0_20, vendor: Oracle Corporation
Java home: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_20\jre
Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: Cp1252
OS name: "windows xp", version: "5.1", arch: "x86", family: "dos"
I'm now attempting to follow your advice to use Maven and perform the steps
here: http://logging.apache.org/log4cxx/building/maven.html (I hope it's not
a problem that I'm using the latest version of Maven, 3.x, and not 2.x as
listed in this URL.)
Following the steps under "Building and testing log4cxx on a Microsoft
Windows with APR and APR-Util built from source," Maven is complaining there
is no POM file. Full log is here: http://pastebin.com/3b76Dmby
I tried doing 'mvn clean' but it gave the same "missing POM" error.
So a new dependency has surfaced: Where do I get the necessary POM file?

Use maven, it's easy to install as well and will download cpptasks
form a maven repository as Jar, else you might download it manually
form whatever source you like. But I would prefer using maven, that's
what I did as well.

Hi Thorsten,
Thanks for your help. So far I've done the following:
1. Downloaded latest (as of 08/26/2014) log4cxx from trunk and put it in
directory called: apache-log4cxx-from-svn
2. Installed jdk-8u20-windows-i586
3. Went here http://logging.apache.org/log4cxx/building/ant.html
4. Downloaded and extracted apache-ant-1.9.4-bin.zip.
5. Followed the steps in my extracted copy of apache-ant-
1.9.4/manual/index.html for Windows to set ANT_HOME and JAVA_HOME, and added
%ANT_HOME%\bin to PATH.
6. Changed to %ANT_HOME% and ran: ant -f fetch.xml -Ddest=system
This resulted in a successful build message.
7. Downloaded and extracted cpptasks-1.0b5.zip.
8. The steps at http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/ say to, "See the cc
tasks for installation instructions for cpptasks." When I go to the link for
'cc' (http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/cpptasks/index.html) it says,
"Place cpptasks.jar into Ant's classpath by placing in Ant's lib
directory..."
But now I'm stuck because there is no cpptasks.jar in cpptasks-1.0b5.zip.
What is my next step?

It shouldn't be necessary to use ANT to create VS project files
because ANT can directly build your project using VS. You don't need
the intermediate step of the VS project files.
> If ANT is not necessary
It is. ;-)
> what are the proper steps to build log4cxx from trunk?
Follow the docs using ANT and optionally Maven, because Maven is
currently just used as a frontend to the build logic implemented in
ANT, and ask again if things don't work.
http://logging.apache.org/log4cxx/building/index.html
> I'm

You have the option of creating the project files for VS, but I guess
you don't need to, because ANT builds the project with my VS 2013
Express directly.

Can you clarify what you mean by "shouldn't be necessary"? If ANT is not
necessary, what are the proper steps to build log4cxx from trunk? I'm
attempting to build log4cxx using VC6 to integrate it with a VC6 project I'm
working on.

I would suggest using a current trunk with ANT following the official
docs, there shouldn't be any changes to the code necessary anymore to
successfully compile. If your errors still persists, we can dig into
those further. The ANT build provides running of some tests as well to
see if the created lib is generally usable.

If this error persists with trunk, a stack trace would be helpful.

There's no release date yet.

Hi,
I've compiled log4cxx in vs2010 following the same HOW-TO. Everything went
fine, dll was generated. My problem started when I was linking with my app,
I had some weird errors like already defined object std::vector, resolved
including log4cxx.h in my files that was failing.
Now, If I start debugging, when I call to log4cxx configure method, an
std::length_error is thrown only in debug.
Could be a project configuration problem? When are you planning to release
a version with vs2010 support?
Thanks a million!

The project files are only part of a release, you can create those
with ANT on your own but shouldn't be necessary. At least ANT works
with VS 2013 Express for me.

Thank you. Is Ant the preferred way to build log4cxx? I don't see the VS
project files any more.

The code changes should no longer be necessary if you use trunk, we
had some bugs for those changes and already applied them. though I
don't know the numbers anymore.

Re: Status of log4cxx under Windows using VS 2010
Posted by Joseph Fradley <jo...@fradeng.com>.
I hit another roadblock. I'm trying to create an AsyncAppender with a
ConsoleAppender attached (programatically for now). Once I call
logger->addAppender(asyncAppender) I get an access violation exception:
"Unhandled exception at 0x0fd39f81 (log4cxx.dll) in ..."
My code looks like this:
defaultLayout = new log4cxx::SimpleLayout();
asyncAppender = new log4cxx::AsyncAppender();
consoleAppender = new log4cxx::ConsoleAppender(defaultLayout);
asyncAppender->addAppender(consoleAppender);
logger->addAppender(asyncAppender); // crashes here
The exception occurs here in log4cxx:
void AsyncAppender::addRef() const {
ObjectImpl::addRef(); // crashes here
}
Now I'm worried the work around instructions I used to compile log4cxx
under VS 2010 might have messed something up. It works if I just use the
ConsoleAppender.
Does anybody have any experience using the AsyncAppender? Am I missing a
step?
Thank you for any help. I'm probably going to have to punt using log4cxx
now.
Joe
