The Linux build requires a number of packages to be installed. For Ubuntu installations, the command apt-get can be used to retrieve and install those packages, for example:
sudo apt-get install cmake
Other Linux flavors can use rpm or similar installer.
You need to have the following packages installed:
| Linux Packages Needed for SmartBody build |
|---|
| cmake |
| g++ |
| libxerces-c3-dev |
| libgl1-mesa-dev |
| libglu1-mesa-dev |
| xutils-dev |
| libxi-dev |
| freeglut3-dev |
| libglew-dev |
| libxft-dev |
| libapr1-dev |
| libaprutil1-dev |
| libcppunit-dev |
| liblapack-dev |
| libblas-dev |
| libf2c2-dev |
| build-essential |
| mono-devel |
| mono-xbuild |
| python-dev |
| libopenal-dev |
| libsndfile-dev |
| libalut-dev |
| ncurses-dev |
| fltk1.3-dev |
You can run the following command to install the above packages:
sudo apt-get install cmake g++ libxerces-c3-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev xutils-dev libxi-dev freeglut3-dev libglew-dev libxft-dev libapr1-dev libaprutil1-dev libcppunit-dev liblapack-dev libblas-dev libf2c2-dev build-essential mono-devel mono-xbuild python-dev libopenal-dev libsndfile-dev libalut-dev ncurses-dev fltk1.3-dev
| Linux packages needed for text-to-speech engine |
|---|
| festival-dev |
| ncurses-dev |
You can run the following command to install packages needed for TTS:
sudo apt-get install festival-dev
| Linux packages needed for Ogre3D viewer |
|---|
| libzzip-dev |
| libxaw7-dev |
libxxf86vm-dev |
libxrandr-dev |
| libfreeimage-dev |
| nvidia-cg-toolkit |
| libois-dev |
libogre-dev ogre-1.8-samples-data |
You can run the following command to install packages necessary for Ogre:
sudo apt-get install libzzip-dev libxaw7-dev libxxf86vm-dev libxrandr-dev libfreeimage-dev nvidia-cg-toolkit libois-dev libogre-dev ogre-1.8-samples-data
| Linux packages needed for test suite |
|---|
| imagemagick |
You can run the following command to install the packages necessary to run the test suite:
sudo apt-get install imagemagick
The Ogre-based renderer is not built by default. To build it, you will need to download the 1.6.5 source (www.ogre3d.org/download/source), build and install it into /usr/local. Next, uncomment the core/ogre-viewer directory from the core/CMakeLists.txt file. This will add the OgreViewer application to the build - the binary will be located in core/ogre-viewer/bin.
To build the Linux version:
./linuxlibsdownload.sh
This will download the needed dependencies in source code form, create a folder called 'dependencies'.
Next, build the dependencies by running the script:
sudo ./linuxlibsbuild.sh
Running as superuser (sudo) is needed because of certain installation commands. The script will build the necessary dependent libraries in the include/ and lib/ folders under the main smartbody folder.
Next, make and install the SmartBody code as follows:
mkdir buildfolder cd buildfolder cmake .. make -j6 install
(NOTE: There is an error when using cmake 2.8.4. Please download and install cmake 2.8.10 from: http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.10.2.tar.gz)
This will create the Makefiles, then run the build script and install the executable sbgui in core/smartbody/sbin/bin
You can then run sbgui by running:
cd core/smartbody/sbgui/bin ./sbgui
