Hello <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 

We are a small group of students who are having some problems compiling our AR programs.

The error generated by the compiler is:

 

Cannot open include file: 'dshow.h': No such file or directory

Error executing cl.exe.

 

And the compiler is right – the file dshow.h is not on the computer. The problem is that both Microsoft Vision SDK, Version 1.2 and Microsoft DirectX Libraries are installed on our windows 2000 PC. We have no problem running the examples in the ARToolkit.

 

Any idea what the problem can be? 

 

With Regards

 

Troels, Bjørn and Sune

You have to install the DirectX SDK, because the DirectX runtime doesn't 
contain the ".lib" and include files. Go to the MSDN webside 
(http://msdn.microsoft.com) and search for "DirectX SDK" and you will 
find it. After you have installed it you must add the path containing 
the DirectX include file to the include path of the Visual Studio.

Best regards
Jürgen
