Windows 10 Gazebo download: Installing the Ignitions #3183

Open T-Basic opened 2 years ago

T-Basic commented 2 years ago

I'm following the tutorial on installing the ignitions.

In Step 7, part 1 - ign_cmake: The commands .\configure -> nmake -> nmake install, but I don't have an installation of CMake in the directory to "gz-ws/ign-cmake/build/install/Release" and instead just builds and installs it here: image

In Step 8, part 2 - ign_math: I try .\configure and get this: image Following with nmake and nmake install not working.

These forums are the only similar posts I've found: https://answers.gazebosim.org/question/25657/failing-to-install-gazebo-on-windows/?sort=latest#sort-top https://answers.gazebosim.org//question/25208/error-installing-ign-math-in-windows-10/

I've been trying to get it to install to the correct directories and have been editing configure.bat and other files to get it to do so but with no success. If anyone has any advice and details they can provide that would be much appreciated.

I would recommend to follow the modern packaging approaches done by contributors in different package managers for Windows, probably conda and vcpkg are the best chances to get Gazebo working on Windows. This issues tracks a good part of these approaches https://github.com/osrf/gazebo/issues/2901
