A SolAR Framework Windows installer is provided in order to quickly install:
the SolARFramework library (debug and release modes) and interfaces (C++ header files)
SolAR modules libraries (debug and release modes) and interfaces (C++ header files)
the required third party libraries (debug and release modes) and third party interfaces (C++ header files)
the QT creator pre-requisites
SolAR samples (C++ sample code)
The installer can be downloaded here:
Using the installer is straightforward:
download then launch the installer
read then accept the license agreement, then press "Next"
| Please close QT on your computer, before executing the installer. |
select the destination installation folder (default is: C:\SolARFramework).
select the components you want to install.
Regarding this last step, you have the choice between:
SolAR libraries: this will install SolAR Framework and SolAR modules libraries and interfaces only.
QT creator dependencies: this will install a windows version of pkg-config program, used by SolAR build scripts to generate Makefiles under QT creator
Third party libraries: this will install the following third party libraries and interfaces: fbow, freeglut, opencv, boost, eigen, spdlog and xpcf
Sources: this will install a sources folder containing SolAR Framework, Modules, Samples and Unit Tests sources.
Sample code: this will create a Samples folder under your SolARFramework installation folder. This folder contains sample C++ projects that you can use to learn the basics of SolAR.
Build scripts: this will create a build-scripts folder containing bash scripts to manage git repositories and to compiles sources
Executable Samples: this will create a Samples folder containing 4 executable samples (fiducial marker, natural image marker, triangulation based on 2 image and a SLAM sample)
Please use the default values: it will install everything you need to use SolAR, especially if you want to first test a sample code.
| Please refer to the samples part to know how to use samples getting started linux.. |
download both files SolARFramework-0.5.tar.xz and SolARFrameworkInstall-0.5.sh at the following addresses:
and
| you must have a BCOMDEVROOT environment variable defined, and this variable must point to a directory where all binaries (built libraries and third parties libraries) will be copied |
open a terminal and go to the directory where you have saved SolARFramework-0.5.tar.xz and SolARFrameworkInstall-0.5.sh
run the following commands
foo@bar:~$ chmod 755 SolARFrameworkInstall-0.5.sh
foo@bar:~$ ./SolARFrameworkInstall-0.5.sh allnote that you can run
foo@bar:~$ ./SolARFrameworkInstall-0.5.shto get instructions on how to use the installer.
as a result, a SolARFramework directory should now be present under the folder where you ran the installer script. This directory should contain
foo@bar:~$ ls SolARFramework
build-scripts samples sourcesin your terminal you can now run samples (executable) contained under the samples/ folder
you can also browse SolAR sources under the sources folder
you will be able to update your source tree, running the following command:
foo@bar:~$ ./build-scripts/updateGit.sh developfinally you will be able to compile the source code:
foo@bar:~$ ./build-scripts/cmake-build.sh allWhen I run the installer, it asks me to update pkgconfig, do I need to accept?
yes, please accpet it will uninstall the current version and replace by a new one.
