Hi everyone!!!
I am new to OpenSteer and linux and was wondering how one can install and/or use opensteer??
Thanks for your help!!!
Hi, its good you asked, since it will save you the step of installing the obsolete release! Until I get my act together, the best thing to do is to get the latest sources from the SVN repository at SourceForge. See instructions here: http://opensteer.sourceforge.net/doc.html#InstallingOpenSteer
After you do a "make" then run the app OpenSteerDemo. A good way to get started is to pick one of the plug-ins that seems most similar to what you want to do, make a copy of that, then begin making incremental changes to it.
Good luck,
Craig
Hello and thanks for the quick reply.
When I'm doing 'make', it comes up with an error at the end. The following is the generated text.
By the way, I'm a newbie in linux, sooooo i don't get most of these things!!! I'm doing this for a project that I need to use and link it with a program I'm using in Ubuntu.
