Broken include in latest "stable" release (2.4) of Bro source?

Hi,

I think there may be a broken #include in the latest “stable” release (2.4) of the Bro source tar ball.

At: aux/broker/src/store/result_type_info.hh:5:10:

#include <caf/detail/abstract_uniform_type_info.hpp>

should be:

#include <caf/abstract_uniform_type_info.hpp>

I believe.

The working combinations of Bro + CAF should now be Bro 2.4 and CAF 0.13.x or if you want to work w/ Bro’s git repo, its master branch should be working w/ CAF 0.14 (i.e. that CAF header file moved locations between releases).

David,

I came across the “abstract_uniform_type_info.hpp” CAF issue a couple weeks ago (look for “libcaf errors” for history). It was exactly what Jon said and I was able to build Bro repo against CAF 0.14.

Okay, got it. Thanks, all!
