Linking CCCoreLib with CoudCompare

[sviseur]

Hi,

I have downloaded the CCCoreLib-master.zip and cloudcompare-master.zip recent packages from CloudCompare github.

I have installed them within the same directory.
I work on Windows 7 with CMake 3.20.0-rc2 and Visual Studio 2019.

I had no issue to compile CCCoreLib, but when I have tried to compile CloudCompare, its dependency with CCCoreLib failed.
I thought that the dependency between CloudCompare and CCCoreLib was embedded into the CMakeLists.txt of the directory :
CloudCompare\libs\qCC_db\extern\CCCoreLib

However, it seems I have lacked something...

Do we have to set CCCoreLib in a special directory of CloudCompare tree? Do we have to set the CCCoreLib path into any kind of environment variable?

Thanks in advance for your help!
Sophie.

Yes, CCCoreLib is a submodule. You shouldn't have to download the zip file, but simply "update/pull" the submodule (git submodule update --init --recursive)

Dear Daniel,

Many thanks!
I thought it was possible to install appart from a github platform!

Ok! I install "github desktop" and it works perfectly!

Best regards,
Sophie.
