FW: [ODE] Helping a beginner

[Dan Dixon]

I'm also a beginner have trouble getting the testing samples to
compile...

Someone else asked this...
"Can anyone provide me some MS Visual C++ 6.0 projects"

And I think that's a great idea...
I'm trying to make one myself (err...  a MS Visual C++ 7.0 project,
whatever), but can't get it to compile...  I asked the following in an
earlier message, and received this response...

--------------

If you're using ODE as a DLL, add the items in the error list
(dInfinityValue, dBoxClass, etc) to the .def file in the ODE DLL C++
project.  No promises, though... I haven't seen this error myself.

--------------------

My response...
But in this case I'm not trying to compile it as a DLL (I can get that
to work)... Anyway... 

-------------------

Here's the problem...
I'm running Windows XP and MS Visual Studio .NET, and I have the latest
version of ODE. And I'm trying to get the ODE up and running.

In Visual Studio, I created a new "Managed C++ Application" project and
added the "test_boxstack.cpp" file to it. But when I go to compile it, I
get the following errors.

LINK : error LNK2020: unresolved token (0A000006) dInfinityValue LINK :
error LNK2020: unresolved token (0A000019) dBoxClass LINK : error
LNK2020: unresolved token (0A000025) dSphereClass LINK : error LNK2020:
unresolved token (0A000027) dCCylinderClass LINK : error LNK2020:
unresolved token (0A00003C) dGeomTransformClass LINK : fatal error
LNK1120: 5 unresolved externals

I know just enough about C to be dangerous, but not enough to understand
how to fix this problem.

What do I do in order to clear up these problems so that
test_boxstack.cpp  can compile?

Thanks in advance.

Dan Dixon

Yeah, sure there is. In the ode directory, check under ode/testing. You
should find what you're looking for there. And if you havent yet, look
through the documentation that Russ wrote up for ode. It's excellent,
and
really was the reason why I first started playing with ode.
