Hi,<br>
<br>
I've been using Rivet from time to time for a long time now,
compiled many different versions on many different systems, and am
quite happy to see the new beta available. I'm curious what the YODA
histogramming will bring...<br>
<br>
I don't know whether there's a proper location for this, hence this
e-mail, but I thought I'd share my build issues. Just one actually,
though it took me half a day to realise what the problem was.<br>
<br>
The yaml-cpp tool has two different branches, with a different API
(0.3.0and 0.5.1 currently, if I'm up to date). I was getting tons
and tons of YAML error trying to compile Rivet, after the configure
told me it was happy with the yaml-cpp lib and header it found.
Turns out I had the 0.5.1 yaml-version installed, while Rivet
requires old API. I switched versions and Rivet compiled like a
charm. <br>
<br>
Would it maybe be an option to add a check to the configure script
that warns the user that the yaml-cpp version is relevant? As in
Boost > 1.40 required but then yaml-cpp < 0.5 required? Or
some page/document to go with the beta version that lists things
like this? <br>
Or is this information already available somewhere and I overlooked
it? <br>
<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
