C ++ CMake构建错误：对`boost :: throw_exception（std :: exception const＆）的未定义引用

Question

I have been trying to integrate boost.Log into my project, but when building I am receiving the error message:

/usr/lib/cross/boost/lib/libboost_date_time.so: undefined reference to `boost::throw_exception(std::exception const&)'

I have checked the ensure I do not have BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS defined anywhere, but am still stumped as to why I am getting this error. My CMAKE file is as follows:

set(Boost_INCLUDE_DIR /usr/lib/cross/boost/include)
set(Boost_LIBRARY_DIR /usr/lib/cross/boost/lib)
find_package(Boost 1.63.0 COMPONENTS system filesystem log REQUIRED)

message(status "** Boost Include: ${Boost_INCLUDE_DIR}")
message(status "** Boost Libraries: ${Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS}")
message(status "** Boost Libraries: ${Boost_LIBRARIES}")

set (PROJECT_LINK_LIBS thrift crypto ssl sqlcipher)

link_directories( $ENV{LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
                ${Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS}
)

include_directories( $ENV{LD_INCLUDE_PATH}
$ENV{LD_INCLUDE_PATH}/sqlcipher
${Boost_INCLUDE_DIR}
)

add_executable(databaseManager ${MY_SRC})

target_link_libraries(databaseManager ${Boost_LIBRARIES} ${PROJECT_LINK_LIBS} )

The output from the FIND for the libraries seem to be ok:

-- Boost version: 1.63.0
1> -- Found the following Boost libraries:
1> --   system
1> --   filesystem
1> --   log

Finally, the verbose output of the linking step where it fails:

Does anyone have any idea what else I can check or do to get past this error?

Cheers!

******* EDIT *********

There have been a few suggestions about adding exception to the COMPONENTS list. I have tried and tested this and unfortunately receive the same error.

The only thing of note is all the main libraries are linked dynamically (.so versions pulled in) and boost_exception is pulled in statically (.a version).

New version of find_package command:

find_package(Boost 1.63.0 COMPONENTS system atomic filesystem log exception REQUIRED)

Build error with above change:

Answer 1

An update if anyone else ever comes across this.

The only way I was able to get it to work was with having the following snippet of code:

#define BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS
#include <boost/throw_exception.hpp>
void boost::throw_exception(std::exception const & e){
//do nothing
}

I played with the ordering of the libraries, with including them all explicitly, with using findBoost.cmake and all to no avail. Just a random quirk I guess!
