How to test on windows #433

Closed 821736960 closed 3 years ago

821736960 commented 3 years ago

Hi, I have followed instructions to compile and install the libpointmatcher with VS 2019 on Win 10. But I want to make sure that it can run successfully. So how to test?

You can do this tutorial: https://github.com/ethz-asl/libpointmatcher/blob/master/doc/ICPIntro.md

Hi! If you want to make sure that everything is working as it should, you can also try to compile the unit tests by following this procedure using cmake-gui:

  1. Set the variable BUILD_TESTS to ON or TRUE. If the variable is not present, just add it like you did with the other variables.
  2. Rebuild the project after having configured and generated the cmake's files.
  3. Run the following command : utest/utest --path ../examples/data/ from a terminal in libpointmatcher's build directory.

I'd like to mention that I'm not a Windows user anymore and that I never used VS, so this procedure haven't been tested. It's similar to the one found in Compiling and installing libpointmatcher on Ubuntu tutorial, so it may not work.

Thanks, my exe file locates at: ~\build\utest\RelWithDebInfo\utest.exe, and I run in Powershell : utest\RelWithDebInfo\utest --path ../examples/data/ It shows: ... [----------] Global test environment tear-down [==========] 72 tests from 13 test cases ran. (36224 ms total) [ PASSED ] 72 tests. So that means I installed it correctlly?

So that means I installed it correctly?

Not installed, but compiled successfully. Which means that the installation should be correct too.

Before going further with your CGAL request, were you able to do the tutorial? If so, that would mean that you've successfully compiled, installed and tested libpointmatcher on Windows, meaning that this issue could be closed. I invite you to open a new issue concerning your CGAL problem, so it would make it easier for others users that are encountering the same problem to find a solution. Thanks!
