Compilation errors due to warnings treated as errors

[Sadrahel]

I encountered several compilation errors while trying to build Marian on my system. The errors seem to stem from warnings being treated as errors by the compiler.
System details:

Operating System: Debian
CUDA version: 12.5
GCC version: 12.2.0
CMake version: 3.22.0

Steps to reproduce:
1- Clone the Marian repository
2- Create a build directory and navigate into it
3- Configure the build with:
cmake .. -DCOMPILE_CUDA=on
4- Compile with:
make -j16

Errors encountered:
The compilation fails with several errors, mostly related to the use-after-free warning in various parts of the Marian code. Here's an example:
/home/guillaume/EDSUtilities/marian/src/common/intrusive_ptr.h:24:23: error: pointer used after 'void operator delete(void*, std::size_t)' [-Werror=use-after-free]
24 | if(x != 0 && --x->references_ == 0) {
| ~~~^~~~~~~~~~~

Attempts to resolve:

1- I tried disabling the specific use-after-free warning by passing -Wno-error=use-after-free to CMake, but other warnings were still treated as errors, causing the compilation to fail.
2- I also tried disabling the treatment of all warnings as errors with -Wno-error, but the compilation still failed.

Additional information:

I am trying to compile Marian to use it for machine translation tasks.
I have CUDA and cuDNN properly installed and configured on my system.
I have also installed all necessary dependencies for Marian.

Please let me know if you need any further information to diagnose and resolve these compilation issues. I would be happy to provide more details or test any potential fixes.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Best regards

You don't need to write the parameter -DCOMPILE_CUDA=on, it is already on by default.
The errors you are encountering are probably caused by trying to compile with higher version tools. I experienced similar problems, but was later able to compile using ~2022 versions of many libraries and dependencies.
The information on this page may be useful for compiling. Take a look if you want.
