Addon linker issue

advanced
#1

I’m trying to create an addon for the first time. I’ve gone through the tutorial on the site gets me halfway there but for some reason I am unable to add additional library dependencies and additional dependencies.

I’ve tried editing the addon_config.mk with:
ADDON_LIBS = libs/librealsense/lib/librealsense2/x64
expecting it to show up in VS under Properties->Linker->General->Additional Library Dependencies as:
..\..\..\addons\ofxLibRealsense\libs\librealsense\lib\x64
but it doesn’t.

i’d also like to add a .lib file to Properties->Linker->Input->Additional Dependencies but can’t seem to do that.

I’m using VS on Windows with OF 0.9.8. Any ideas?

#2

on OSX, we need to list up all lib files like below.

ADDON_LIBS += libs/yourlib1.a
ADDON_LIBS += libs/yourlib2.a
ADDON_LIBS += libs/yourlib3.a
…

#3

if you put libraries in:

libs/librealsense/lib/vs/x64/librealsense.lib

or whatever it’s its name it’ll be picked up automatically by vs.

same thing in other platforms just replace vs with the name of the platform, take a look at opencv for example to see how the folder structure works

Thanks guys! @arturo that works perfectly.
