?? Please go back and read his original problem report. If the VS8 libraries weren't compatible with VS9, this doesn't explain why CMake can't find them. :-)
As it turns out, Mike VS8 libraries work great with VS9. I have two systems in the office here with VS9 Express and Mike's VS8 binaries. Not only did CMake find them, but the libraries work fine at runtime (osgviewer stats display uses the FreeType plugin without a problem). I'm not sure I'd ship a product with this compiler mix, but it works fine for development purposes. >From the original email, it sounds like he isn't using the precompiled binaries at all. Perhaps your VS9 binaries will help him, though, so thanks for posting that.

You should try: http://www.openscenegraph.org/projects/osg/wiki/Community/People/MattiasHels ing/3rdParty_Win32Binaries_vc90.zip The zip above will soon get updated as compiled with vc90 sp1 cheers Mattias On Fri, Jan 30, 2009 at 11:27 PM, Paul Martz <[email protected]> wrote: > Check the mailing list archives.
