Why does it depend on Clang?

[jkvargas]

It does need it if you want to compile Assimp by yourself. Otherwise you're good to go without it :) Valeu bro!

@jkvargas something is failing for me.

Adding this should be enough to compile it as a dependency, right?

[dependencies]
russimp = "0.2.3"

At first I got this error:

  thread 'main' panicked at 'Unable to find libclang: "couldn't find any valid shared libraries matching: ['clang.dll', 'libclang.dll'], set the `LIBCLANG_PATH` environment variable to a path where one of these files can be found (i
nvalid: [])"', C:\Users\dangu\.cargo\registry\src\github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823\bindgen-0.57.0\src/lib.rs:1975:31

And this is what I am facing after installing https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/releases/download/llvmorg-12.0.1/LLVM-12.0.1-win64.exe

  wrapper.h:1:10: fatal error: 'assimp/cimport.h' file not found

So, windows is a problem hehe. This package was mainly developed on linux. There is a branch which I am trying a windows build without success so far. I am trying to use vcpkg to build it.

@jkvargas yeah, I just realized it: https://github.com/jkvargas/russimp/runs/3645140896?check_suite_focus=true Where can I connect to you via an instant messaging?
