For up to date information on the project, how to indepth details on how to

compile and run libraries and examples, and see the documentation on the

OpenSceneGraph website.

For the impatient, read the simplified build notes below.

Notes for 1.9.8 release
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
OpenThreads/include and src directories has now been merged directly into
|
|
the OpenSceneGraph distribution, this means that you don't need to download,
|
|
compile or install it, and will be able to remove the external OpenThreads
|
|
from your system.

How to build the OpenSceneGraph
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
The OpenSceneGraph use the CMake build system to generate platform specific
|
|
build environment. CMake reads the CMakeLists.txt files that you'll find
|
|
throughout the OpenSceneGraph directories, check for installed dependnecies
|
|
and then generate the appropriate build system.
|
|
|
|
If you don't already have CMake installed on your system you can grab it
|
|
from http://www.cmake.org, version 2.4.6 or later.
|
|
|
|
Under unices (i.e. Linux, IRIX, Solaris, Free-BSD, HP-Ux, AIX, OSX) use the
|
|
cmake or ccmake commandline utils, or use the included tiny configure script
|
|
that'll run cmake for you. The configure script simply runs
|
|
'cmake . -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release' to ensure that you get the best
|
|
performance from your final libriaries/applications.
|
|
|
|
cd OpenSceneGraph
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can create an out of source build directory and run configure
|
|
from there. The advantage to this approach is that the temporary files
|
|
created by CMake won't clutter the OpenSceneGraph source directory, also makes
|
|
it possilble to build multiple build targets by creating multiple build
|
|
directories. In a directory alongside the OpenSceneGraph use:
|
|
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
cd build
|
|
cmake ../OpenSceneGraph -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
|
|
make
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
|
|
Under Windows use the GUI tool CMakeSetup to build your VisualStudio files.
|
|
The following page on our wiki dedicated to the CMake build should help
|
|
guide you through the process:
|
|
|
|
http://www.openscenegraph.com/index.php?page=Build.CMake
|
|
|
|
Under OSX you can either use the CMake build system above, or use the Xcode
|
|
projects that you will find in OpenSceneGraph/Xcode.
