C++ tutorials are pointing to v1.0.0 which does not build
aurelienrb opened this issue · comments
Hello,
Following the discussion here, I followed the instruction on the website to build and use grpc++. I spent almost 2 days struggling with linker errors before finding that the issue is in grpc++ itlsef and learning that the v1.0.0 just can't be built successfully.
In other words, if a beginner follows the instruction on the website, (s)he will fail to successfully build any c++ example :-(
So I suggest to update the website to stop mentionning version v1.0.0 (like here) and to update the version returned by http://grpc.io/release with something that works for grpc++ (as mentioned here). I switched to v1.0.x and now it works fine.

@aurelienrb thanks for flagging this. It's a valid problem with a simple fix. @LisaFC would you be able to pick this one up?

Sorry this fell off my to-do list, I can fix it today - should we update the global release value for the site to 1.0.1? Will that work for all language implementations?
@LisaFC, @aurelienrb I think this issue can be closed, as the documentation no longer specifies a particular version to clone.
