Re: [osg-users] Installation Problems.VS10 - unresolved external symbol
Ok.After brief reflection, I decided that the problem with x64 was because i've tried to compile it like x86 Application (yes,my bad). x86 was because i've changed Environment variable and didn't reboot my system, so when it tried to compile project, it used .dll files from x64 bin folder, that was set in path variable before. As a result, I had the same errors in both cases. btw switching between Multi-Byte Character Set / Unicode Character Set does not affect the work of application. Anyway, I want to share my experience of the pre-compiled OSG setup for VS10. Hope it will be useful for someone. Here is my step-by-step instructions for Dummies. 1. Download latest version of pre-compiled binaries from AlphaPixel (http://openscenegraph.alphapixel.com/osg/downloads/free-openscenegraph-binary-downloads). You will need at least two archives x86-debugx86-release or/and x64-debugx64-release 2. Unpack debug and release into one folder. (u will have bin,data,doc,include,lib,share folders). If u install x86 and x64, You can remove doc, data from one folder because it is the same files. (I've made root folder OSG,which contains data,doc,x64,x86 folders.And x86/x64 contains bin,lib,include folders.) You can also remove share folder, you dont need it for work. 3. Configure your Environment variables (choose one step only) 3.1 Do it yourself 3.1.1 Right click on the Computer icon and choose Properties option. 3.1.2 In the System window click on Advanced system settings in the left pane. 3.1.3 In the System Properties window select Advanced tab and click on Environment Variables… button. 3.1.4 In the Environment Variables window you will notice two columns User variables for a username and System variables. You should edit system vars. Code: OSG_ROOT - your OSG root folder OSG_BIN_PATH = %OSG_ROOT%\bin OSG_INCLUDE_PATH = %OSG_ROOT%\include OSG_LIB_PATH = %OSG_ROOT%\lib not necessary: Code: OSG_SAMPLES_PATH = %OSG_ROOT%\share\OpenSceneGraph\bin OSG_FILE_PATH = %OSG_ROOT%\data path = %path%;%OSG_BIN_PATH%;%OSG_SAMPLES_PATH%; btw try to avoid spaces in your paths 3.2 Use batch file Code: @echo off rem Tested on Win7x64, pre-compiled OSG 3.0.1 from AlphaPixel, VisualStudio2010 rem must work on Win7Vista x86/x64 rem ©Kirill Serebriakov (17:06 14.01.2012) set x86path=--!SET PATH TO YOUR X86 osg FOLDER!-- set x64path=--!SET PATH TO YOUR X64 osg FOLDER!-- rem data folder is not necessary set data=--!SET PATH TO YOUR X64 data FOLDER!-- IF NOT EXIST %x86path% (echo x86path is not set or incorrect GOTO x64) :x86 SETX OSG_ROOTx86 %x86path% -m SETX OSG_BIN_PATHx86 %%OSG_ROOTx86%%\bin -m SETX OSG_INCLUDE_PATHx86 %%OSG_ROOTx86%%\include -m SETX OSG_LIB_PATHx86 %%OSG_ROOTx86%%\lib -m :x64 IF NOT EXIST %x64path% (echo x64path is not set or incorrect GOTO finish) SETX OSG_ROOTx64 %x64path% -m SETX OSG_BIN_PATHx64 %%OSG_ROOTx64%%\bin -m SETX OSG_INCLUDE_PATHx64 %%OSG_ROOTx64%%\include -m SETX OSG_LIB_PATHx64 %%OSG_ROOTx64%%\lib -m :finish IF EXIST %data% (SETX OSG_FILE_PATH %data% -m) echo reboot Your system pause and this one to delete paths Code: @echo off :x86 echo Removing x86 OSG path REG delete HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment /f /V OSG_ROOTx86 REG delete HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment /f /V OSG_BIN_PATHx86 REG delete HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment /f /V OSG_INCLUDE_PATHx86 REG delete HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment /f /V OSG_LIB_PATHx86 :x64 echo Removing x64 OSG path REG delete HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment /f /V OSG_ROOTx64 REG delete HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment /f /V OSG_BIN_PATHx64 REG delete HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment /f /V OSG_INCLUDE_PATHx64 REG delete HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment /f /V OSG_LIB_PATHx64 :data REG delete HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment /f /V OSG_FILE_PATH :finish echo reboot Your system pause 3.3 Or you can skip this step, but you'll have to spend a little more time to configure Visual Studio 4. Don't forget to reboot your system if u change Environment variables. 5. Open Visual Studio. File - New - Project - Visual C++ - Empty Project 6. Config your project. Project - Properties 6.1. You must set path to your lib folder and include folder Code: C/C++ - General - Additional Include Directories add $(OSG_INCLUDE_PATH) Linker - General - Additional Library Directories add $(OSG_LIB_PATH) or Code: VC++ Directories - Include Directories add $(OSG_INCLUDE_PATH) VC++ Directories - Library Directories add $(OSG_LIB_PATH) if you skiped step 3, you must set absolute path to your folders. 6.2. Add Lib files Code: Linker - Input - Additional Dependencies add all .lib files that you need (for Debug LibNamed.lib)/without -d(for Release) 6.3
[osg-users] Installation Problems.VS10 - unresolved external symbol
Hi, I tried to install OSG, but it seems that i missed something. I'll try to describe what i have done. Preparations: 1. Download pre-compiled binaries from AlphaPixel. 3.0.1 Debug + Realease for both architecture (x64/x86). (didn't download PDBs). 2. Download pre-compiled binaries from AlphaPixel. 2.8.5 Debug + Realease for both architecture (x64/x86). (didn't download PDBs). 3. Download source code (version 3.0.1) from openscenegraph. 4. Download and install CMake. 5. Download SampleDatasets for 3.0.0 from openscenegraph. Installation: First: 1. Unpack pre-compiled binaries (ReleaseDebug x64) into one folder. (i have Win7x64) 2. Configurate my system pathes. Code: OSG_ROOT - my root folder (W:\Programs\Development\OpenSceneGraph_3.0.1_VS10x64) OSG_BIN_PATH = %OSG_ROOT%\bin OSG_INCLUDE_PATH = %OSG_ROOT%\include OSG_LIB_PATH = %OSG_ROOT%\lib OSG_SAMPLES_PATH = %OSG_ROOT%\share\OpenSceneGraph\bin OSG_FILE_PATH = %OSG_ROOT%\data 3. Check... Code: Run - cmd - osversion - works (OpenSceneGraph Library 3.0.1). Run - cmd - osgviewer cow.osg - works too. 4. Run VS10. 5. Created C++ Win32 Empty Project. 6. Add new cpp file and pasted code from BasicGeometry Tutorial. 7. Configurate my project. Code: Project - Properties - C/C++ - General - Additional Include Directories add $(OSG_INCLUDE_PATH) Project - Properties - C/C++ - Preprocessor - Preprocessor Definitions add WIN32;_WIN32;_DEBUG(for Debug)/WIN32;_WIN32;NDEBUG (for Release) Project - Properties - Linker - General - Additional Library Directories add $(OSG_LIB_PATH) Project - Properties - Linker - Input - Additional Dependencies add osgd.lib osgGAd.lib osgDBd.lib osgViewerd.lib (for Debug)/without -d(for Release) Project - Properties - General - Character Set - Use Multi-Byte Character Set Project - Properties - C/C++ - Language - Enable Run-Time Type Information - Yes(/GR) 8. Tried to Run in Debug. Fail. Code: error LNK1120: 162 unresolved externals error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol protected: virtual void __thiscall osg::Group::childInserted(unsigned int) (?childInserted@Group@osg@@MAEXI@Z) ... 9. Tried to Run in Release. Same errors. Seems like it didnt detect my lib files, but i'm sure i've pointed the path. 10. Well, for reinsurance... Code: Project - Properties - C/C++ - General - Additional Include Directories add W:\Programs\Development\OpenSceneGraph_3.0.1_VS10x64\include Project - Properties - Linker - General - Additional Library Directories add W:\Programs\Development\OpenSceneGraph_3.0.1_VS10x64\lib nope...didn't help. Second: 1. same steps but for pre-compiled binaries x86.Same results. Third(compile src by myself): 1.Open CMake. 2.Pointed to my OSG folder with sources. 3.Press Configure...Something happens. Well as result i've got .sln file. 4.Open .sln and compile. 5. Wait... 6. Wait... 7. Ok.Finished, got lib folder. 8. Copied bin,lib,include folders into a new one, added other folders from pre-compiled version (share,data). 9. And repeat from First-2 to the end...Same results. Fourth and Fifth: 1. Checked pre-compiled binaries for 2.8.5 x64 x86. Yeah...have 157 errors instead of 162...realy nice... Yeah...i knew that I've done too much excess, but miracles happensbut not this time... As a conclusion i think i've missed something...but i dont have an idea what to do... Hope someone can tell me what should i do. Thank you!

Re: [osg-users] Installation Problems.VS10 - unresolved external symbol
Hello Kirill, Project - Properties - General - Character Set - Use Multi-Byte Character Set I think this is your mistake, I have never had to set this, and I believe it creates incompatible binaries. Meaning if the OSG libs were not compiled using multi-byte character set, and you try to link to them in a project that is, it will fail. So if in your own project you change this back to the default, you should be able to use the pre-compiled binaries. Extra kudos for having tried all the other paths as well, though! I think they all failed for the same reason - even when you create your own project files using CMake from the OSG sources, it will not use multi-byte character set, so the binaries it compiled were incompatible with the project you created which did. Hope this helps, let us know how it goes.

This generates code with a different set of name mangling, and therefore will intentionally fail to link. If you _absolutely_ need MBCS support, you'll probably have to build OSG (and all the third-party dependencies) with MBCS support. If you want, I could make you an estimate for having our build farm build it that way. J-S -- Chris 'Xenon' Hanson, omo sanza lettere. xe...@alphapixel.com http://www.alphapixel.com/ Digital Imaging.

There were few options that i didn't set before. Code: - General - Character Set - Use Multi-Byte Character Set - C/C++ - Language - Enable Run-Time Type Info - Yes (/GR) Well,i added this, but i didn't help anyway...same errors. Something with lib files i believe...because usually I get an unresolved external symbol error, if not added in the properties required lib files. Any other ideas what should i do? P.S. I will try to install on other PC, may be problem in my current system... Thank you!

You can turn on linker debgging in VC++ so it tells you exactly what it is searching for, and where it is searching. Usually if you compare the mangled names of the symbol it's searching for, and what it found, you'll see a mismatch. Decoding the name mangling: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Visual_C%2B%2B_Name_Mangling http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/5x49w699.aspx will usually tell you what settings are different between the builds. -- Chris 'Xenon' Hanson, omo sanza lettere. xe...@alphapixel.com http://www.alphapixel.com/ Digital Imaging.

But still...i had the same errors with x86 OSG (im sure i cheked with both versions 3.0.12.8.5). Well need some time to analyze all my actions and make some conclusion. Thank you!
