Aws-sdk-cpp: compilation of EC2Client.cpp fails "c++: internal compiler error: Killed (program cc1plus)"

[tinkyholloway]

This is probably the wrong place for this issue, but perhaps someone has experience...

$ git clone --branch 1.0.103 https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-cpp.git

$ cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DENABLE_RTTI=ON -DENABLE_TESTING=OFF -DMINIMIZE_SIZE=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

(also tried MINIMIZE_SIZE=ON)

$ /usr/bin/c++   -DENABLE_CURL_CLIENT -DENABLE_OPENSSL_ENCRYPTION -DPLATFORM_LINUX @CMakeFiles/aws-cpp-sdk-ec2.dir/includes_CXX.rsp -Wall -Werror -pedantic -Wextra -fno-exceptions -fPIC -O3  -DNDEBUG   -std=c++11 -o CMakeFiles/aws-cpp-sdk-ec2.dir/source/EC2Client.cpp.o -c /root/build/aws-sdk-cpp/aws-cpp-sdk-ec2/source/EC2Client.cpp
c++: internal compiler error: Killed (program cc1plus)
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-5/README.Bugs> for instructions.

I've tried mucking about with different optimisation levels.

You need 4 gigs of ram to link EC2 on GCC. Unfortunately, there isn't much we can do about it (it's a massive API). If you really need it at the moment, you can try deleting operations you don't want.

You need a 64-bit GCC to compile EC2, plus lots of memory. A 32-bit GCC can't allocate enough memory. See #133 (this is probably a duplicate of it)
