OSG & VPB Build Environment in Windows as Step-By-Step Tutorial

This HowTo shows one solution to create a good working OSG build environment on a windows operating system.

Install CMAKE from http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html
Download OSG sources
Download prebuild 3rdParty libraries from http://www.openscenegraph.org/projects/osg/wiki/Downloads/Dependencies . Attention: Use the right version for your compiler, the wrong version can cause unpredicatlbe linking and runtime errors!
Download the example data from http://www.osgvisual.org/projects/osgvisual/wiki/Downloads

The directory structure will be explaned on an example installation on drive D: :

Directory	Content	Source
D:\OpenSceneGraph	Root folder of the OSG framework	-
D:\OpenSceneGraph\gdal-1.6.x	gdal-1.6.x	Download precompiled from http://www.osgvisual.org/projects/osgvisual/wiki/Downloads
D:\OpenSceneGraph\3rdParty	Folder containing the 3rdParty libraries in the subfolders x86 and x64	Download from http://www.osgvisual.org/projects/osgvisual/wiki/Downloads
D:\OpenSceneGraph\Data	Models and pictures for the OSG examples	http://www.osgvisual.org/projects/osgvisual/wiki/Downloads
D:\OpenSceneGraph\OpenSceneGraph-2.9.9_x86	Folder containing the real osg framwork compiled as 32 bit with its subfolders (bin lib include etc.)	Download newest version vom SVN trunk
D:\OpenSceneGraph\OpenSceneGraph-2.9.9_x64	Folder containing the real osg framwork compiled as 64 bit with its subfolders (bin lib include etc.)	Download newest version vom SVN trunk
D:\OpenSceneGraph\VirtualPlanetBuilder	Folder for the VirtualPlanetBuilder installation.	Download newest version from SVN trunk

The followin enviroment variables are required:

Env Variable

Content

Example

OSG D:\OpenSceneGraph\OpenSceneGraph-2.9.9\bin;D:\OpenSceneGraph?\3rdParty\bin;D:\OpenSceneGraph?\gdal-1.6.2\bin
OSG_FILE_PATH D:\OpenSceneGraph\Data;D:\OpenSceneGraph?\Data\Images
PATH erweitern mit ;%OSG%
OSG_SCREEN 0 Nummer des Bildschirms, den OSG verwenden soll. es wird angefangen bei 0 zu zählen.
OSG_NOTIFY_LEVEL Notify-Level für die Konsolen-Ausgabe, z.B.: WARN
OSG_ROOT OSG-Wurzelverzeichnis, z.B.: D:\OpenSceneGraph?\OpenSceneGraph?-2.9.8

Download GDAL SDK-Package (bottom of the page) from http://vbkto.dyndns.org/sdk/
Open in VS2008 SP1 and compile.

Create new gdal directory structure

gdal-1.x.x
 - bin
 - include
 - data
 - lib

data	Content from SDK-Package/<GDAL>/data
include	All includes files from SDK-Package/<GDAL> -- cpl_config.h will reside in different folders with different size, use the bigger one.
bin	Copy all .exe and.dll into this directory
lib	Copy gdal_i.lib into this directory

Delete your downloaded SDK to avoid that cmake will found this folder instead your build.

Die Reihenfolgedes kompilieren lautet

CMAKE starten und Sourcecode wählen
- Sourcecode Verzeichnis: D:/OpenSceneGraph/OpenSceneGraph-2.9.8
- Build Binaries Verzeichnis: D:/OpenSceneGraph/OpenSceneGraph-2.9.8
Optionen für gewähltes Sourcecodeverzeichnis einstellen
- ACTUAL_3RDPARTY_DIR D:/OpenSceneGraph/3rdparty
- CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX D:/OpenSceneGraph/OpenSceneGraph-2.9.8
- BUILD_MFC_EXAMPLES true (Diese Option erscheint erst, wenn BUILD_OSG_EXAMPLE auf true gesetzt wurde und einmal ein "Configure" ausgeführt wurde)
- BUILD_WRAPPER true
configure ausführen, bei Fehlern diese beseitigen
Generate ausführen -> MS Visual Studio Solution wird erzeugt
D:/OpenSceneGraph/OpenSceneGraph-2.9.8 betreten und OpenSceneGraph?.sln öffnen
BUILD_ALL einmal als Debug und einmal als Release kompilieren ( Bei Fehlern immer wieder OHNE Aufräumen kompilieren bis alle Fehler weg sind und der Compile gelingt)

Finished! :)
