How much time and effort to install under Win?
Hi, I am new to Orocos and I plan to install it under win and Visual Studio. I would like to ask if someone has a guess how much time I need to spend to install and compile it all to be ready for a first example. Is there a new tutorial for installation the 2.5 toolchain under Win XP and 7 ? Thanks a lot Martin How much time and effort toSubmitted by Mr_M_from_R on Tue, 2012-06-19 07:26.

The instructions on the website work for 2.5 as well. http://www.orocos.org/wiki/rtt/rtt-ms-windows/compiling-windows-visual-studio If you're familiar with CMake on Windows, and you've setup your system such that cmake can find your VC compiler, it will compile RTT out of the box, and do an INSTALL build. OCL has more dependencies.
You can then try to checkout the examples, but frankly, you'd better have a good reason to run Orocos on Windows, since most available code out there has been written for Linux (libraries).
