Hi Robert I know from past emails that you are not a Wintel user, so I guess it will someone else who can help.
I downloaded the 1.2 rc2 zip file to WinXP Home, unzipped it, read the README file and opened the OpenThread VS6 workspace, and then attempted the release build. The VS 6 output was cut and pasted into my original email. I did not try to build Producer because the README states the build order is OpenThreads, Producer and then OSG, and I figured that if the first build failed and the second build depended on the first build, then there was not much point trying the second build <breath here!!> After I sent the original email, I discovered that the change was due to the introduction of combined 32 and 64 bit build support after 1.1. It may be that VS 7 and VS 8 support these fields, but VS 6 doesn't. I am stuck with VS 6 (I have it and I need MFC support) even though VS 8 Express is available as a free download. So all OSG 1.2 needs is for someone to suggest some extra words to add to the README to describe how to configure VS 6 to support these extra environmental variables. It could be that for VS 6 usage, the instruction is to delete the "offending" variables from the workspace. regards Phil > > From: "Robert Osfield" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: 2006/09/06 Wed AM 10:36:28 GMT > To: "osg users" <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [osg-users] Build Problems: OSG 1.2 RC 2 with VC 6 > > Hi Philip, > > I don't really have any suggestions, but to help track down a solution it'd > be useful to know more about what has compileand what has failed. > > I presume OpenThreads compiled fine? > > Did Producer compile ok, so save for what looks like a linker error? > > Did the dynamic library build of Producer work ok? > > Robert. > > On 9/5/06, Philip Taylor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > Never having built with VC6 (+ STLPort 5), I just tried the OT build after > > reading the README.TXT file.
