Usually, DLLs fail to load because they, in turn, require a DLL that can't be found. Do you have depends.exe? (Shipped with VC6, but not sure about more recent versions of VS.) It would tell you what libraries the problem DLL requires, and where they're located; then you can ensure that their directories are in your PATH. By the way, what is your PATH set to? -Paul
_____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Will Sistar Sent: Wednesday, November 28, 2007 5:55 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [osg-users] DynamicLibrary::failed loading I am a new user and am trying to use osgviewer (specifically osgviewer cow.osg). I have not built OSG; I used the Win32 Binaries Installer. I set the paths as I found in Getting Started and I modified the osgShell.bat file to turn on debugging. When the osgshell starts it prints out this: OSG_ROOT = C:\Program Files\OpenSceneGraph OSG_FILE_PATH = C:\OpenSceneGraph-Data OSG_NOTIFY_LEVEL = DEBUG after typing in "osgviewer cow.osg" part of what I get follows: itr='C:\Program Files\OpenSceneGraph\bin' FindFileInPath() : trying C:\Program Files\OpenSceneGraph\bin\osgPlugins-2.2.0\osgdb_osg.dll ... FindFileInPath() : USING C:\Program Files\OpenSceneGraph\bin\osgPlugins-2.2.0\osgdb_osg.dll DynamicLibrary::failed loading " osgPlugins-2.2.0/osgdb_osg.dll" Warning: Could not find plugin to read objects from file "cow.osg". osgviewer: No data loaded The dll is in the osgPlugins-2.2.0 directory as it should be, as I read in a previous post similar to this. I noticed that I could load the library manually so I copied the osgdb_osg.dll to the bin directory and typed "osgviewer -l osgdb_osg.dll cow.osg" and it worked. (sort of, it didn't load the osgdg_rgb.dll although it tried like above) itr='C:\Program Files\OpenSceneGraph\bin' FindFileInPath() : trying C:\Program Files\OpenSceneGraph\bin\osgdb_osg.dll ... FindFileInPath() : USING C:\Program Files\OpenSceneGraph\bin\osgdb_osg.dll CullSettings::readEnvironmentalVariables() I tried manually loading the dll like this "osgviewer -l osgPlugins-2.2.0\osgdb_osg.dll cow.osg" and that didn't work. Any suggestions would be helpful. Will
