  • CMake 2.8.10
  • Qt 5.1
  • OpenGL support >= 3.2 (3.1 or below might work in some cases - use cmake option OPTION_NO_OPENGL_320)
  • XCode/QtCreator/gcc/mingw/VisualStudio/etc..
  • Partial C++11 support (as provided by MSVC11: http://wiki.apache.org/stdcxx/C++0xCompilerSupport)

Disclaimer

  • FOR ASSESSMENT WE BUILD YOUR SUBMISSION IN WINDOWS WITH MSVC11 ONLY!
  • WE OFFICIALLY SUPPORT WINDOWS WITH MSVC11 ONLY!
  • Still, if you have problems on other platforms please let us know. We are dedicated to provide a framework that is working on all common desktop platforms.

Build Instructions

Windows

General Requirements:

Windows - Visual Studio (the preferred way)

Prerequisites

  • Having a Visual Studio installed (MSVC11 or UP)

Building and Running an Exercise

  • Start cmake-gui with batch or manually (but provide QT_DIR and make sure the Qt binaries are on the path)
  • Open CMakeLists.txt with cmake-gui
  • Specify path to build binaries (recommended in extra build directory) -> "build" folder
  • Press configure and generate
  • Open solution with batch
  • setup working directory of cg2sandbox to ".." for each configuration you want to run
  • compile and run as required...

Windows - Qt Creator

Prerequisites

Building and Running an Exercise

  • File > Open File or Project
  • select the CMakeLists.txt
  • specify Build Directory
  • Press Run-CMake, then finish
  • Specify Working Directory via Projects > Run > Working Directory (see http://doc.qt.digia.com/qtcreator-2.3/creator-run-settings.html) to point to exercise folder, not the build folder
  • Compile (e.g. with [Ctrl] + [R])

Windows - NMake

Prerequisites

  • Cmake is available via command line
  • You habe nmake installed and you can use ae.g. Visual Studio Command Promt

Building and Running an Exercise

  • set PATH=%PATH%;"C:\Qt\5.1.0\qtbase\bin"
  • mkdir build
  • cd build
  • cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="C:\Qt\5.1.0\qtbase\lib\cmake" -G "NMake Makefiles" .. # this worked for us... (perhaps you need to specify platform/compiler...)
  • nmake
  • cd ..
  • set QT_DIR=C:\Qt\5.1.0
  • set PATH=%PATH%;%QT_DIR%\qtbase\bin;
  • ./build/exercise1

Linux

Only tested on Ubuntu 13.04 x64.

Gathering Requirements

  • install cmake, this should give you 2.8.10 or above (in Ubuntu 13.04)
    • sudo apt-get install cmake
  • install a C++ compiler with support for C++11 (GCC 4.7 or higher is recommended)
    • e.g. for Ubuntu 12.04:
      • add-apt-repository -y ppa:george-edison55/gcc4.7-precise
      • apt-get -y install gcc-4.7 g++-4.7
  • download qt 5.1.0 (http://qt-project.org/downloads)
  • suppose the filename is qt.run (replace appropriately)
  • in downloaded folder do:
    • chmod u+x qt.run
    • sudo ./qt.run

Building and Running an Exercise

in your cg2 exercise1 (or exercise#) source folder do:

  • mkdir build
  • cd build
  • PATH="/opt/Qt5.1.0/5.1.0/gcc_64/bin;$PATH" cmake .. # this worked for us...
    • you might need to set the newer compiler manually: -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/bin/gcc-4.7
  • make
  • cd ..
  • ./build/exercise1

OS X

Building and Running an Exercise

  • The following instructions are used for XCode. You can also use other IDEs like QtCreator or Netbeans.
  • Start CMake.
  • Choose generator, e.g., XCode or Unix Makefiles.
  • Configure and Generate.
  • Open XCode project and run make

Third Party Libraries

In order to make the libraries compile with our compiler setup, the following modifications had to be made:

The following modifications where made in order to get things running. Note: these are not modifications you need to do when using this repo.

Assimp Modifications

assimp/CMakeLists.txt
  • ENABLE_BOOST_WORKAROUND was set to ON by default
  • disabled the uninstall capability
assimp/code/CMakeLists.txt
  • COMPILE_FLAGS "-D_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS" was added to avoid secure warnings in msvc
  • COMPILE_FLAGS "-D_SCL_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS" was added to avoid secure warnings in msvc
assimp/code/LWOAnimation.cpp
  • #include was added in order to compile in windows
