R1457 makes you do some workarounds to compile plugins under windows. R1484 compiled smoothly but could not find xmls (such as env or robot) when called from other xml. Checking around the changelog, xml parsing changed for R1471, so going to try with R1470. Update: Tried with R1470, same problems as with R1484.

Older Info

Info that would be good if Openrave's Boost 1.39 for Windows were not a bit hacked for it to compile OpenRAVE:

Then install Boost 1.39 (BOOST is needed for OpenRave). Click on the following link: http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.39.0/boost_1_39_0.zip/download and save the file to a given folder. Extract its contents. Open a command prompt and go to this directory. Run bootstrap.bat. Run bjam release. Run bjam install.

Erase "openrave\inc\boost" and "openrave\lib\boost*". Copy "C:\Boost\include\boost-1_39\boost" to "openrave\inc" and "C:\Boost\lib" contents to "openrave\lib\win32".


Add the line #define COIN_NOT_DLL after line 27 in "openrave\inc\Inventor\C\basic.h".


coin3d-2?


If w/VS 6.0, cmake will not have to be run manually as it is run from the batch file.
