Dear Sir or Madam,
I am student at the Baden-Wuerttemberg Cooperative State University
Stuttgart in Germany.
To realize driver assist systems for a Pedelec(electrical bicycle) and
for projects relating to autonomous navigation we are using the Laser
range finder UTM-30LW-EW.
To get into the programmation of the range finder I am using the URG
Library 1.0.4 with Visual C++ 2010 Express. I tried to translate your
explanations how to use this library.
Let me first explain what I've understood.
I opened the project "urg_library-1.0.4\visual_cpp\urg.sln". Visual C++
converted the project I think it's written in an earlier version. Then I
started debugging by pressing F5. After compiling I have got the file
"urg.lib" in the directory "Debug". I noticed that this library and the
files in the directory urg_library-1.0.4\include are already included in
the sample projects of "urg.sln". Then I wanted to execute one of those
projects for example "get_distance". First I connected the range finder
by ethernet to my PC and tested the functionality with the URG Benri
V1.2.7 tool. That was working. After disconnecting URG Benri again I
tried to debug the "get_distance" project on its own. Then I have got
three files (get_distance.ilk, get_distance.exe, get_distance.pdb) in
the directory "Debug". Nothing else happens. With double click on the
.exe I there is appearing a console window for one moment but there
seems not to be any connection to the range finder.
It would be great if you could help me by explaining how to use the
library the correct way. In the first step it is just important to me to
run your projects and to get some connection to the URG range finder.
Thank you very much in advance.
With kind regards
Markus Davin
