jwt::verifier<jwt::default_clock>::algo_base::~algo_base() unresolved reference about jwt-cpp HOT 6 CLOSED

What compiler/OS are you using?
Any special compiler flags?

from jwt-cpp.

cpp --version
cpp (GCC) 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-11)

from jwt-cpp.

Do you get the error when trying to compile the test cases?
gcc 4.8.5 is pretty old, make sure you compile with -std=c++11

Do you think commenting out the virtual destructor will have and adverse effect?

Yes absolutely. The virtual destructor is needed to allow the algorithm to be destroyed. If you remove it you WILL leak memory everytime you create/destory a verifier.

You can try replacing the line

virtual ~algo_base() = default;

with

virtual ~algo_base() {}

This might fix it, if it compiles fine otherwise.

Thanks a lot!!! Converting it to a function resolved the issue. :)
