I am used to Java. I am learning more about C++ so I can learn how to add native capabilities into a Java program. With this being said, I am looking into how to use Kinect sensor with Java. I would like to use the OpenKinect project.
I am following the steps at : OpenKinect Getting Started site. I followed every step without any big issue and I go all through the steps up to compiling the source in Visual Studio 10. Here is a picture of my Cmake-GUI:
Cmake generates no problem. It is just the build in Visual Studio that gets me.
When I build the project I get a ton of warnings and it fails to build.
Do I need to follow the build process if I plan on using the source files in Java?
If so, I have not found anyone with the same errors I have been getting. There is a link off the readme that describes some common errors but states it will still build.
I didn't post the warnings because there are over 2000 lines.
Has anyone actually successfully done this?
So hopefully this could help others....After going line by line through the error log I found the root of all the issues. It was just one method that was being accessed a little wrong. Just needed an adjustment.
To find I just compiled each instead of the whole solution and ignored warnings...just looked for errors.
In core.c:
FREENECTAPI void freenect_select_subdevices(freenect_context *ctx, freenect_device_flags subdevs) {
ctx->enabled_subdevices = subdevs & (freenect_device_flags)(FREENECT_DEVICE_MOTOR | FREENECT_DEVICE_CAMERA
#ifdef BUILD_AUDIO
| FREENECT_DEVICE_AUDIO
#endif
);
}
Needs to be
FREENECTAPI void freenect_select_subdevices(freenect_context *ctx, freenect_device_flags subdevs) {
ctx->enabled_subdevices = (freenect_device_flags)(subdevs & (FREENECT_DEVICE_MOTOR | FREENECT_DEVICE_CAMERA
#ifdef BUILD_AUDIO
| FREENECT_DEVICE_AUDIO
#endif
));
}
