Re: How to install Player from SVN source...

Thank you for your prompt reply. Thank you so much.


Yes, I did follow your suggestion and grab the most recent SVN player half an hour ago (2008-10-28), and tried two ways to build the source:


1)
cd player-svn
ccmake .
make
I got the errors as

But, during "ccmake ." step, what I've got in the advanced mode "t" is

 Boost_INCLUDE_DIR                /usr/local/include/boost-1_36
 Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS               /usr/local/lib
 Boost_SIGNALS_LIBRARY            /usr/local/lib/libboost_signals-gcc42-mt-1_36.so

 Boost_THREAD_LIBRARY_DEBUG       Boost_THREAD_LIBRARY_DEBUG-NOTFOUND
 Boost_THREAD_LIBRARY_RELEASE     /usr/local/lib/libboost_thread-gcc42-mt-1_36.so


2)
cd player-svn
cmake .

What I've got is

and

-- ===================



Although I've already successfully installed "artoolkitplus" under /usr/local, with head files in
/usr/local/include/ARToolKitPlus and libraries under /usr/local/lib,
I still get the error
-- checking for module 'artoolkitplus'
--   package 'artoolkitplus' not found


It's pretty strange to always have such configuration problems.

BTW, I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 and cmake 2.6

jiapei@jiapei-laptop:~/Tools/playerstagegazebo/player-svn$ uname -a
Linux jiapei-laptop 2.6.24-21-generic #1 SMP Tue Oct 21 23:43:45 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
jiapei@jiapei-laptop:~/Tools/playerstagegazebo/player-svn$ cmake --version
cmake version 2.6-patch 2

Really can't figure it out till now.

None of the items in CMake_Todo.txt are major or will prevent Player
from compiling correctly.

I suggest you perform a clean checkout of svn, then follow the
instructions in the README and INSTALL files.
