Installing OpenSceneGraph on PCs in Sequoiah lab 142

Lab Hardware:

Pre-Installed Software:

Installation Instructions:

In the following instructions, replace USERNAME with your user name. In my case that is jschulze.
Download OpenSceneGraph: Stable Release 3.0.0, ZIP file and extract to C:\users\USERNAME\osg
Download CMake 2.8 binary release and install into your home directory, for instance C:\users\USERNAME\CMake.
Download 3rd party libraries (thanks, Ayush Shrestha!) and extract into user's home directory, for instance to C:\users\USERNAME\3rdparty.
Download libxml. Extract the zip file to C:\users\USERNAME\3rdparty.
Make sure the bin, lib and include directories are directly under the 3rdparty subdirectory. Move them there if there is a directory in-between.
Open Windows command shell by running application 'cmd' from Start menu.
cd c:\users\USERNAME\osg
cmake -i
- Change default install path to c:\users\USERNAME\osg
- Enable compilation of examples.
Double click ALL_BUILD file in c:\users\USERNAME\osg. This will open MSVC and automatically create a solution with all library files and examples.
