--------------------------------------
Summary: libboost_zlib library is not detected but is required
Key: AVRO-1543
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1543
Project: Avro
Issue Type: Bug
Components: c++
Affects Versions: 1.7.6
Reporter: Sean Middleditch
Standard builds of Boost with the iostreams library and zlib support build two
separate libraries, libboost_iostreams and libboost_zlib. Avro is properly
setup to detect and link in the former but not the later, meaning that Avro
cannot be build out of the box without customizing either the Boost build or
Avro's CMakeLists.txt.
Another alternative change may be to remove Avro's hard requirement on zlib
support in Boost's iostreams library, especially as stand-alone Boost builds
will not include zlib support. Avro could either require its own flag for zlib
support (being explicit is good, so this would be good) or detect if Boost was
compiled with zlib support during CMake generation time. If Avro does not do
either of these, it needs to be updated to link in libboost_zlib.
