rqt_image_view: error with MOC generated code, having parsing problems with BOOST_JOIN

[venabled]

When trying to compile rqt_image_view on OS X (10.9) using boost 1.55 and QT 4.8.5_1, I'm getting the following:

:info:build [ 14%] [ 28%] Generating include/rqt_image_view/moc_image_view.cxx
:info:build Generating include/rqt_image_view/moc_ratio_layouted_frame.cxx
:info:build opt/local/include/boost/type_traits/detail/has_binary_operator.hp:50: Parse error at "BOOST_JOIN"
:info:build make[2]: *** [include/rqt_image_view/moc_image_view.cxx] Error 1
:info:build make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/rqt_image_view.dir/all] Error 2

Looks to be similar to the problems back in ros/ros_tutorials#6 related to the QT 4.8 bug https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-22829

@wjwwood It looks like the workaround is to wrap headers with some directives to only be included when MOC isn't being called. My question is which ones?

Yes, it is a collision with Boost and Qt macros. I did a similar patch in rviz:

ros-visualization/rviz#589

I can not reproduce the problem on any platform (Quantal, Trusty, ...). Please consider creating a patch similar as for the linked other packages.

Sicce there was no further response on this ticket I assume it is not a problem anymore. If it still is please comment with more information / consider providing a pull request to make it work on your platform. Then the ticket can be reopened,
