Error: boost::filesystem::create_directories: Function not implemented

[Shun Lu]

All the requirements were successfully installed and there is no error occurred.
However, when I use denseflow to extract frames from videos, specifically the HMDB-51 datasets, such error appears:

Perhaps the system is old? This thread might be related boostorg/filesystem#172

I have the same error, any progress?

[Shun Lu]

Sorry, I did not found a solution.
I needed the denseflow for the video dataset processing in Video-Swin-Transformer, but later I found that it also provided a method to process the dataset without denseflow.
Therefore, I gave up installing the denseflow.

The author has fixed this problem by adding "BOOST_FILESYSTEM_DISABLE_STATX", I tried to install the latest version and set the usage of statx() as false, it works. Hope the script below would help you.

# install boost
set -e

if [ -f "downloads/$FILE" ]; then

    wget $DOWNLOADURL -O $FILE
    mv $FILE downloads/
