“identifier ”_Node_allocator“ is undefined” when compiling C++ file using std::map with icpc

I am trying to compile the following code:

#include <map>

int main() {
  std::map<double, double> test;

  return 0;
}

using the following command:

icpc -I /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/c++/8  main.cpp -o test

I get the following error:

/usr/include/c++/8/bits/stl_tree.h(700): error: identifier 
"_Node_allocator" is undefined
            _GLIBCXX_NOEXCEPT_IF(

            ^

at line 6 of "main.cpp"

together with a handful of type traits errors like the following:

This code compiles without a problem using g++.

The result of icpc and g++ version commands give the following:

> icpc -v
icpc version 18.0.3 (gcc version 8.1.0 compatibility)

> g++ -v

So my icpc and g++ version are compatible. I also didn't forget to source the compilervars.sh file of icpc.

I can't find any post with this error. Is there a specific library needed to add to icpc that is not added automatically to be able to use std::map?

I've tried adding -lstdc++ myself in the compilation command but this didn't work.

I don't think ICC 18.0.3 is compatible with GNU 8.1. ICC 18.0.3 is supported GCC from 4.3 to 6.3.

You can read "System requirements" at https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-c-compiler-180-for-linux-release-notes-for-intel-parallel-studio-xe-2018 

Thanks,

Thank you for your response !

This seems really confusing !

 

> icpc -v
icpc version 18.0.3 (gcc version 8.1.0 compatibility)


says that icpc 18.0.3 is compatible with gcc 8.1.0, but indeed as the site you linked it says it's compatible with gcc 4.3 - 6.3.

I will try to connect my icc with an older gcc version and see if it works then.

Thanks !

That message, somehow is misleading. "icc -v" detects the default GCC version installed on your system and say "compatibility", but it isn't.

It should work if you have 6.3 installed.

Thanks,

Viet

This was it ! 

So to fix it I first installed gcc-6 and g++-6, which was done with the following commands on Ubuntu 16.04

 

sudo apt-get install gcc-6 g++-6


Then I added the following flag to my compiler flags:

 

-gxx-name=/usr/bin/g++-6


And then changed my include folder to be version 6 instead of 8:

 

-I /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/c++/6



Thanks !!

Hi,

I encountered the same issue with std::map. I'm using Fedora 29 here (gcc 8.1.1). Since there is  no  official package for gcc-6.3 that can be installed on F29, I simply downloaded of an old rpm of libstdc++-devel-6.3.1 and unpacked the header files into /usr/local/include/c++

So far it has worked fine, programs compile and link without problems, but I wonder if it could be necessary to install gcc and the standard libraries? I don't think that gcc-6.3 supports c++17, while ICC 18 does, am I wrong?

Seems like GNU 6.3 does support c++17

vahoang@orcsle147:/tmp$ g++ t.cpp -std=c++17 -c
vahoang@orcsle147:/tmp$ g++ -v

... ... ...

gcc version 6.3.0 (GCC)

Hello, Yes it's true that gcc 6.3 supports C++17, at least partially. According to this page https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx-status.html#cxx17 not all the features were implemented at the time. That's why I was wondering if ICPC, which relies on gcc-6.3 headers, fully supports it. Giuseppe

P.S.:

Ok, I see that some C++17 features are not supported, as from this page

https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/c17-features-supported-by-intel-c-compiler

In fact I couldn't make a fold expression work.
