How to run the 'C' programs in prog folder of Leptonica in Windows platform

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download leptonica lib & source files
2. Build it in Microsoft Visual Studio 2010

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Need to run the lineremoval.c from leptonica by calling from Java. 

While compiling the source in Visual Studio 2010, getting below error.

Cannot open include file: 'freetype.h': No such file or directory

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Leptonica 1.68 - Windows 7 64 bit System

Please provide any additional information below.

Both freetype.h and freetype.c are included with the distribution of 1.71.

I suggest that you build with 1.71.  1.68 is now about 3 years old.

Tom Powers can answer more authoritatively.

See "Building the prog directory programs" [1] for instructions on how to build 
programs like lineremoval.c. While freetype.h and freetype.c are included in 
the distribution, freetype.c is NOT built as part of the standard VS2008 
solution. In all the time I've been working on the Windows version of Leptonica 
no one has complained about this omission.
