Rok Mihevc updated ARROW-224:
-----------------------------
External issue URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/15569
> [C++] Address static linking of boost dependencies
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-224
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-224
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: C++
> Reporter: Wes McKinney
> Assignee: Wes McKinney
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 0.2.0
>
>
> As a follow up to ARROW-222, we will want to provide the option of standalone
> shared Arrow libraries, or at least forcing certain dependencies (like boost)
> to be statically linked. The problem with this is that many Linux
> distributions do not compile the boost static libs with {{-fPIC}}, so you get
> linker errors (see https://travis-ci.org/apache/arrow/jobs/139374716#L1430).
> In our CI builds, it would be best to avoid building boost from source each
> time, so I switched things to depend on boost shared libraries at runtime,
> but it would be nice to have the option to statically link assuming an
> appropriately-compiled boost.
