[pdal] PDAL compilation (MSVC9)

[Michael P. Gerlek]

Looking at line 56 of ReaderBase.hpp, I suspect you're not actually building off the latest sources on github, is that correct?

 

Beyond that, I also suspect that we're going to find that we're using some C++ constructs that VS2008 doesn't accept.

Hi everyone,

I have some difficulties to compile PDAL on my computer:
- my compiler: MS Visual Studio 9 2008
- my installed libraries: boost 1.46.1, Qt4.7.2, OSGEO4W(gdal, ogr, laswip, liblas, ...)


Here what I do after downloading the zip of PDAL:

cd c:\devCpp\LIBS\PDAL
cmake-gui

In the CMake-Gui, I press the Configure button and set the BOOST_LIBRARIES_DIR until the configuration is done:

Searching for GDAL 1.6.0+ library
   NOTE: Required version is not checked - to be implemented
Searching for GeoTIFF 1.2.5+ library
Found GeoTIFF version: 1.3.0
Searching for LASzip 1.0.1+ library
Found LASzip version: 2.0.1
Searching for LibLAS 1.6.0+ library
Found libLAS version: 1.06.000
Configuring done

Then i generate the MS Visual Studio 9 2008 project file(s):
Generate Done


Open the PDAL.sln with MS Visual Studio 9 2008
Select release mode, then start to Build the solution (F7) then the drama :

... etc... ...
bla bla ...



I used the same method for the liblas, and it's working great. Here i don't understand why it's pointing so many errors.

Does anyone have an advice ?

Thanks
