hi
i just downled the mrpt using the exe file. i also installed the Cmake. both are added to the variable path.
now, can someone give me step by step of what to do to run one/ any of the sample in the mrpt package?
i am using win7 x64. i have Visual C++ express
Though, this is was i did, and it gives me error:
i load up Cmake, and enter"
where is teh source code: C:/Program Files/mrpt-0.9.5/samples/gridMapLikelihoodCharacterization
where to build the binary: C:/mrpt Stuff/test/test
and hit generate
and the error i got is as follow:
The C compiler identification is unknown
The CXX compiler identification is unknown
Check for working C compiler: bcc32
CMake Error: your C compiler: "bcc32" was not found. Please set CMAKE_C_COMPILER to a valid compiler path or name.

It fails with the following output:

thanks


Ok, So forget what I said above, as it nolong there.
Here is the current problem:
So i am following the tutorial
Writing your first C++ program with MRPT
I download the mrpt_example1 and store it it C:\Users\xxx\Documents\mrpt Stuff\
I create a empty file in the called EX1 and store it in
C:\Users\xxx\Documents\mrpt Stuff\
Now using CMake-gui
I enter the following:
Where is teh source code: C:/Users/xxx/Documents/mrpt Stuff/mrpt_example1
Where to build the binaries: C:/Users/xxx/Documents/mrpt Stuff/EX1
I hit the Configure button, and no error, and then I hit the Generate button. Everything is OK up to now.
Now, in the EX1 folder, I have list of files and folders in which I think its exptected to be generated by CMake.
Now, lauching MSV C++ Express and Open -> Project/Solution/C:\Users\xxx\Documents\mrpt Stuff\EX1\mrpt_example1.sln
In C++ EXpress Solution Explorer, I see ALL_BUILD, mrpt_example1, and ZERO_CHECK folder, with sub folders in them.
Now, when after I do the Build Sulotion, I got this
1>------ Build started: Project: ZERO_CHECK, Configuration: Debug x64 ------
2>------ Skipped Build: Project: ALL_BUILD, Configuration: Debug x64 ------
2>Project not selected to build for this solution configuration
========== Build: 1 succeeded, 0 failed, 1 up-to-date, 1 skipped ==========
note, 1 skipped.
And now, I hit F5 (start debuggin) and I got a prompt message
it says "This project is out of date: ZERO_CHECK - Debug x64... would you like to build it"
and i click Yes
and another prompt message appears, this time it says
"Unable to start program 'C:\Users\xxx\Documents\mrpt Stuff\EX1\x64\Debug\ALL_BUILD. The system cannot find teh file specified.' "
.....so that is all about the problem, any helps in solving this is appriciate
Hi there,
I think that your problem is that, by default, in Visual Studio the "active" project is "ALL_BUILD". You should right click the real project (the one with the executable target) and select it as "active". Then you'll be able to debug it ;-)
