Sample program for URG about sample programs for URG

Sample programs to implement URG's library. These programs can be executed in windows, Linux and Mac
C ++ programs are implemented according to boost and STL. To install boost and SDL please refer below pages.

• About Construction of Development Environment
  • Windows
  • Linux
  • Mac

There is no gurantee that these programs can be execute in any environment. Consider just as a sample program

• Revision history of URG Library

URG library API

• Urg_ctrl.h... API in C
• QRK: urgctrl... API in C ++

Method To use URG libraryurg library for Windows.

URG library can be create as lib file and include/folder. Those created can be used in windows.

• Build Method
• Start Visual Studio 2005 from urg-X.X.X/vc8/C/c_urg.vcproj (as well as urg-X.X.X/vc8/CPP/URG. vcproj), then press F7 to build.
• Build can be considered as success if debug/c_urg.lib file and include folder are created.

• How to use library
  • Use DEBUG/c_urg.lib and include files.

Using URG library in Linux

• Compiling Method
  • Compilation can be done with configure & make
    • C ++ version library cannot be compiled without boost, SDL and sdl_net.

  • Each script in c_urg-config, URG-config can be used after installation using "make install ".

    % unzip urg-X.X.X.zip% cd urg-X.X.X% ./configure && make# make install 

• How to use library
  • The option necessary for the compilation can be described by using c_urg-config (or URG-config ).
    • C_urg_sample.tar.gz... sample using C version library.
    • Urg_sample.tar.gz... sample using C ++ version library.

Linux

Some parts of library depend on SDL and boost.
In this section, Installation Method of each library is explained.

• Install SDL on Linux
• Install boost on Linux

While using package installation on Linux, it is better to use this package tool that manages distribution. (APT, RMP etc)
Install using source code, only when package management is not done.

Install SDL on Linux

• Install SDL using package management tool
  • In ubuntu 「Libsdl1.2-DevIs installed.

• Install SDL from source.
  • Download and compile the file SDL-1.2.XX.tar.gz from
    SDL site

    % tar zxvf SDL-1.2.XX.tar.gz% cd SDL-1.2.XX% ./configure && make% sudo make install 

Install boost on Linux

• Install boost using package management tool
  • In ubuntu 「Libboost-Dev"And 「Libboost-RegEx-DevIs installed.

• Install boost from source
  • Download and compile the file boost-1.37.X from
    Boost site

    % tar zxvf boost_1_37_X.tar.gz% cd boost_1_37_X% ./configure && make% sudo make install% cd /usr/local/include% sudo ln -s boost_1_37_X/boost boost
