I have problem with integration of aws-sdk-cpp with boost and any exception handling.

As soon I linked in cmakelists aws-cpp-sdk-s3 compiler became very strict: errors per unused param, exception handling disabled. I have no idea how I can configure it. Can't find anything in documentation.

    I am having the same issue trying to use boost and aws-sdk-cpp-dynamodb together within a CMake build system. – Beirdo Sep 24 '17 at 21:01
  • I was having a great holidays for the last month, until I got a notification on stack, about new comment in some topic I've totally forgot. This reminded me of a mess that I left behind that is going to haunt me in next weeks. -_- – Piotr Pęczek Oct 03 '17 at 02:52
  • @Beirdo: does it work properly on standard g++ compilation? – Piotr Pęczek Oct 03 '17 at 02:53
  • Yes, it does. My solution so far (which I don't like much) is to use cmake/make on the SDK, the install it to the system in /usr/local. Then I pointed the other cmake setup to it as a system library so it doesn't use the pkg-config file, which seems to be how the CXXFLAGS are modified. – Beirdo Oct 03 '17 at 14:54
  • The other thing are those compilation restrictions. How do you surpress no exception handling during compilation with aws-cpp-sdk? – Piotr Pęczek Oct 05 '17 at 09:27
  • You don't need to. That code doesn't use exceptions, so I compile it as they have it setup... With -fno-exceptions. Then when I compile boost and my code, I use -fexceptions, and link in the SDK as a library. I could have hacked on the SDK and changed it to -fexceptions and it would still be fine, it would just add handlers that will never be called. At least that's my understanding. – Beirdo Oct 05 '17 at 14:50

I had the same problem. When i changed the line

find_package(aws-sdk-cpp)

to 

find_package(AWSSDK REQUIRED)

everything worked fine. Not sure why this works, but it seems to work!
