How to solve building error where a variable "... was not declared in this scope"

Question

I'm trying to install last TauDEM (Terrain Analysis Using Digital Elevation Models) release in GNU/Linux Debian for using with Python Processing in QGIS. Installing instructions can be watched here. After installing some dependencies (cmake, mpi-default-bin) in my system, when I ran following command:

CXX=mpicxx cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ..

I got a successfully result:

-- The C compiler identification is GNU 4.9.2

However, make command produced this kind of error:

‘OFTInteger64’ was not declared in this scope

as main part into this complete context:

After searching for a while, I couldn't found out any adequate answer. My question is: I missed to install some important dependency for obtaining this type of error.

Seems like source missing some header file that should be included. Have you tried grepping content of the source searching for this int type? — ddnomad

To install Taudem in GNU/Linux Debian you can download installation script from this link:

taudem_ubuntu.tar.bz2

After unpacking it, move to that folder and run script (as superuser) with following command:

./taudem_ubuntu.sh

Successfully execution of script also requires these dependencies:

cmake, mpi-default-bin

After installation, mark check box in Processing options and then, launch Processing Toolbox (Processing menu). Taudem geoalgorithms should be available.

The error comes from OFTInteger64 (some sort of variable) and OGR_F_GetFieldAsInteger64 (a function) being undefined.

This is probably due to

A missing #include, or (more likely)
One or several preprocessor macros being set (or unset) in such a way that the needed declarations were never visible.

If this program is available pre-compiled for you Unix, you should primarily use that. If not, you should contact the authors of the software.
