Instructions for compiling using Visual Studio 2010

Required environment variables for compiling all projects

QTSDK: QuickTime 7.6+ SDK directory (cannot be QuickTime X SDK)

Required environment variables for compiling dvr_* projects

OSG_ROOT: Root of the Open Scene Graph directory containing the build directory

GLEW: Root directory of the GLEW library

Debug/Release Viz

VIZPLUGIN_SDK: Root directory for the Vizard SDK files

Extra environment variables required for compiling dvr_arr project

ARRINGTON: Root of the Arrington Viewpoint software

Extra environment variables required for compiling dvr_asl project

MIL_ROOT: The Matrox Imaging Library root directory

Required environment variables for compiling rvd project

Debug/Release Mex

MATLAB: Path to the 32 bit Matlab installation

Debug/Release Python

PIL_IMAGING_LIB: The python dll uses PIL to transfer images from the MOV container and python. This environment variable points to the directory containing Imaging.h file.

PYTHON_DIR: Path to the python directory (tested with python 2.7) containing python27.lib file

NOTE:

When compiling the dvr_arr project, there is an option to turn off the overlaying of the white cross on the scene layer of the MOV file. This is done by defining the NO_FIXATION_CROSS pre-processor variable (properties->Configuration Properties->C/C++->Pre-processor definitions). The cross coordinates will still be recorded in the data stream. This will require a separate program for viewing the movie with a fixation cross for manual annotations and is therefore not recommended in general.

The following DLLs must be in a discoverable location (Path environment variable)

QTCF.dll

VPX_InterApp.dll

Matrox Imaging Library Dlls
