Error in BFL installation with VIsual C++ 2008 Express

Submitted by farzin on Thu, 2008-11-13 18:48

I get this error when I build the INSTALL project:

Performing Post-Build Event...
-- Install configuration: "Debug"
CMake Error at cmake_install.cmake:31 (FILE):
file INSTALL cannot find file "C:/Documents and Settings/fkamkari/My
Documents/Lessons/Kalman filter/Orocos Bayesian Filtering
Library/build/orocos-bfl.pc" to install.
Project : error PRJ0019: A tool returned an error code from "Performing Post-Build Event..."

Does anyone know why?

Hi Farzin, this post went somewhat unnoticed by us and your problem just got reported by someone else. Sorry for the delay in responding.

You've probably haven't got pkgconfig installed and the BFL build system doesn't test for this. So it's a bug, which I'll submit! I guess the shortest way to workaround the problem (if your not using pkgconfig) will be to uncomment the lines of the ".pc file" section in the top level cmakelists file.

HTH,

Klaas
