How to update Boost in Jetson agx Orin?

[itscharan98]

Hello all,

I am using Jetson Agx Orin , with following configuration, attached in the screen shot.
I am working on an Exoskeleton which is operated in CANOpen protocol and the packages for that is not suited with 1.71 boost present in the Jetson.

I want to update the boost to 1.75 + versions

(Note: I have tried manually to install the boost and added the path in bash.c but unfortunately there is no resource available in internet so far on this topic , on how to solve this issue).

Please help me on this issue
.
Thank you

Hi itscharan98,

Are you using the devkit or custom board for AGX Orin?
What’s your Jetpack version in use?

Hello @KevinFFF
I am using the devkit , its running on 5.1.1

It seems the default version for boost is v1.71.

Have you tried to download boost v1.75 and build/install manually?
You could refer to the following instruction from boost.
Boost Getting Started on Unix Variants - 1.75.0

yes , i have tried manually installing the boost and adding the library path in bash.c file but nothing seems to work.
also the 1.71 boost is available in the lib>aarch linux 64 folder where the permisiions cannot be changed to update the boost .

i dont know any other way as of now
