Problems linking with DOM on Linux

Other Standards COLLADA
1

I downloaded, compiled and installed COLLADA DOM 2.2 succesfully on Kubuntu 8.10. Now I’m trying to use it with my own programs, but I don’t know how to link with it properly. Currently I have these includes in my source file:


#include <dae.h>
#include <dom/domCOLLADA.h>
#include <dom/domConstants.h>

My Makefile looks like this:


COLLADAINC = -I/usr/local/include/colladadom -I/usr/local/include/colladadom/1.4
COLLADALIBS = -lcollada14dom -lxml2 -lpcre -lpcrecpp -lboost_filesystem -lminizip
all:
    g++ $(COLLADAINC) program.cpp $(COLLADALIBS) -o program

When I run make, it complains a lot. A snippet:


In file included from /usr/local/include/colladadom/1.4/dom/domCOLLADA.h:13,                                    
                 from program.cpp:5:

I got the problem solved. I hadn’t copied minizip library to /usr/local/lib and there seemed to be something wrong with my program’s source code. I later made a very simple file and that worked!


#include <dae.h>
#include <dom/domCOLLADA.h>
#include <iostream>

int main() {

    DAE dae;

    daeElement* root = dae.open("cube.dae");
    if (!root) {
        std::cout << "Document import failed.
";
        return 0;
    }
}
