Compiling

[MarcSchotman]

Hi,

I read your paper and the acquired skeletons look amazing! I would like to try your implementation but I am having troubles compiling Cmake...

I get the following error message:

....

Running this on Ubuntu 16.04.

Any help is appreciated.

UPDATE

Just now I spend a little more time and got the application running. However when I launched the application and tried to open your default.ply it shut down with the message: ERROR: Function <glutSolidSphere> called without first calling 'glutInit'.

Adding glutInit( & argc, argv ); as first line in main.cpp makes it such that it does not closes immediately but the error message now is: Failed reading mesh:16.

Again any help is appreciated..

UPDATE again

After some time with the debugger I found the problem to be in the reading of the .ply files. After further digging I found replacing the . with , and float with float32 in the .ply files to solve the problem.

Could you let us know how you did that? Perhaps a sample code that reads the .ply file and does the necessity changes on it?

This is some time ago but I think you can simply open as text document and do some ctrl+H replacements to get the desired output.

Thanks for the reply but that actually does not fly. The .ply file cannot be opened properly using a default text editor, due to the differences in formatting. It takes forever, then it hangs anyway. Basically, it cannot interpret the characters in the file.
