Building cpp

[colmeirin]

Hello everyone!

I'm using Windows7 32bits, java 7.51, Ice 3.4.0, Python 2.6.6, Pywin 2.6 and genshi 0.61.
I succesfully run the omero-server and clients with the precompiled binary files.

Now I'm following the OMERO C++ language bindings tutorial and I'm having som trouble building the project.

I've been resolving diferents problems in the compilation process such as variables paths or genshi.

When I try to compile (build -buildcpp) I get the following message:


Any thoughts?

Is there a chance that I will be able to develop and build with c#?
Is there an updated precompiled librarys for c++?

Thanks for your efforts and keep the good work!

Hi,

When I try to compile (build -buildcpp) I get the following message:

Have you already run "build" by itself? Perhaps try "build build-all" ?

Code: Select all

Is there a chance that I will be able to develop and build with c#?


C# is currently not supported.

Code: Select all

Is there an updated precompiled librarys for c++?


Not at the moment, no.

Regards,
~Josh.

Hi Josh!
Thanks for the fast reply and the help.

I've tried to do a "build.py build-all" with visual studio 2010 and it also fails. This is segment where the error promted:

It seems something related with the Ice librarys. I've done the basic "Ice hello world tutorial" to try the compilation and it seemed to work...

Any thoughts?

[jmoore]

What's the value of %PATH% in your environment?

Have you tried setting LIBPATH as well? See "Further build configuration for more information.

Cheers,

Hi Josh,

I've tried a build.py build-cpp and this is the message:

The contento of the %PATH% variable on the VS2010 command promt is:

I will try to follow your directions and check and set all the variables in the "Further configuration" part.

In this latest run, it looks like your ICE_HOME has been corrupted:

Code: Select all

Building with ICE_HOME=C:Ice


(no slash).

Do you know how that happened?

Cheers,
~Josh

[colmeirin]

Hi josh.

Under the "Prepare to build" section it's scpecified that if you are using a visual studio enviroment you have to "set ICE_HOME=C:Ice"
First time I read it i found it odd but who knows... Is that a typo?

[jmoore]

Ah, thank you. Yes, it's a typo. We migrated our documentation system and it ate our Windows paths! I've just updated it now: https://github.com/openmicroscopy/ome-documentation/pull/698

Many thanks,
~Josh.

[colmeirin]

I've checked all the envyroment variables such as SLICEPATH, CPPPATH and LIBPATH in the visual studio command promt and seted them properly and I finally been able to compile it!(77minutes building it!)

Thank you for all your help!

Keep the good work!

Regards, Javier.

Hi again.

I have been exploring other components of Omero and I wanted to give another try to build in cpp.

After building the sample VS project with "build -f components\tools\OmeroCpp\build.xml msproj" I oppened the project.

I followed the OMERO C++ language bingings and when I build the example "yourcode.cpp" I get the following error:

Code: Select all

Error   1   error MSB3073: The command "echo Starting SCons && "C:\Python26\python.exe" -c "from os.path import join; import sys; sys.path = [ join(sys.prefix, 'Lib', 'site-packages', 'scons-2.1.0'), join(sys.prefix, 'scons-2.1.0'), join(sys.prefix, 'Lib', 'site-packages', 'scons'), join(sys.prefix, 'scons') ] + sys.path; import SCons.Script; SCons.Script.main()" -C "C:\openmicroscopy\components\tools\OmeroCpp" -f SConstruct "C:\openmicroscopy\components\tools\OmeroCpp\omero_client.dll"" exited with code 1.   C:\Program Files\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\Microsoft.MakeFile.Targets   38   6   omero_client


Any thoughts?

Thank you for your time!
