port/linux Make SWUPDATE=1 result --> error: anonymous variadic macros were introduced in C++11 [-Werror=variadic-macros]

[liz7124]

Hi.
I tried to build from Linux port for enable SWUPDATE resource.
So in <iotivity-lite>/port/linux, I ran make SWUPDATE=1, then got this error

The last error cannot find file/directory in this #include <boost/network/uri.hpp>

[liz7124]

I upgraded my gcc to version 9.2.1 (before 5.4.0) and the first error solved.
But the last error still.
I've download libboost library sudo apt install libboost-all-dev but can't find the network/uri.hpp.
I've found in cppnetlib-uri (https://github.com/cpp-netlib/uri). But where should I copy this library?
I try to copy the network folder from cppnetlib-uri to /usr/include/boost/ then got this error

The "mock" sample uses a Boost library just to validate URIs.
You can fetch it from here: : https://cpp-netlib.org/

The netlib library has been proposed for inclusion in the Boost library but is not yet part of boost. It must be downloaded and installed separately. which is why sudo apt install libboost-all-dev did not resolve the build failure.

[WAvdBeek]

The software update feature is now using a regex pattern to validate the URI.
Hence removed Boost and the cpp-netlib from the build command.
The code is still there if someone wants to use it.
