Major - P3 Hi,
I have been trying to build 3.1.2 C++ Mongo DB driver on top of mongo-c-driver-1.6.3 but it fails on make when trying to find include bson.h it seems to be something related to libbson linking headers/library.
I followed the steps from https://mongodb.github.io/mongo-cxx-driver/mongocxx-v3/installation/ but failed on step 5.
Here is what I have done so far:
Step 1: Install the latest version of the MongoDB C driver.
wget https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-c-driver/releases/download/1.6.3/mongo-c-driver-1.6.3.tar.gz
tar xzf mongo-c-driver-1.6.3.tar.gz
cd mongo-c-driver-1.6.3
./configure --disable-automatic-init-and-cleanup --prefix=/usr/local --libdir=/usr/lib64 --with-libbson=bundled
make
make install
Step 2: Choose a C++17 polyfill
-DBSONCXX_POLY_USE_MNMLSTC=1
Step 3: Download the latest version of the mongocxx driver.
cd ~
curl -OL https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-cxx-driver/archive/r3.1.2.tar.gz
tar -xzf r3.1.2.tar.gz
cd mongo-cxx-driver-r3.1.2/build
Step 4: Configure the driver
sudo cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local .. -DBSONCXX_POLY_USE_MNMLSTC=1 -DLIBMONGOC_DIR=/usr/lib64 -DLIBBSON_DIR=/usr/lib64

Step 5: Build and install the driver

What should I do to point bson library to be aware of where should it go to find the header bson.h?
