aslam_cv_common compilation fails.

[eugval]

Hello,

Thank you very much for that package, looks like a great way to do the calibration!

I am having some issues with compiling aslam_cv_common : Running catkin build hand_eye_calibration hand_eye_calibration_target_extractor hand_eye_calibration_batch_estimation

gives:

Any Idea how to fix this or what could be causing this compilation error?

Update:

After adding the following two lines : FIND_PACKAGE(SuiteSparse) include_directories(${SUITESPARSE_INCLUDE_DIRS})

To /src/suitesparse/system_suitesparse/CMakeLists.txt

The error is reduced to :

I've met the same error. Have you solved it?

[eugval]

I haven't I'm afraid.

[ardian-selmonaj]

I had the same problem and solved it by cloning this package into src folder of catkin_ws. Then I first build this protobuf_catkin package and then extended the CMakeLists of aslam_cv_common with:

find_package(catkin_simple REQUIRED) find_package(protobuf_catkin REQUIRED) catkin_simple(ALL_DEPS_REQUIRED)

and then build the three hand-eye packages with catkin.

@ardian-selmonaj waiting for your help for problem above~

[ardian-selmonaj]

@flyover-26 as far as I remember, just the normal way: clone the protobuf_catkin package and run catkin build protobuf_catkin.

[Hao-Starrr]

cd ~/catkin_ws/src
git clone https://github.com/ethz-asl/protobuf_catkin.git
catkin build protobuf_catkin

Just clone and build. Then you can catkin_make again.
