test-kinect.c -- fatal error: gfreenect.h: No such file

[updogliu]

When I tried to run make at Skeltrack/examples, the following error came out:

test-kinect.c:1:23: fatal error: gfreenect.h: No such file or directory

I have freeglut3-dev installed. Do I need to install any other packages?

[joaquimrocha]

You have to install GFreenect: https://github.com/elima/GFreenect

[updogliu]

I just installed gfreenect. But It is really hard for me to get the dependencies of test-kinect.c correct. The Makefile didn't find the paths of .h and .os correct. (BTW, I usually rely on CMake to do that job.) Would you please provide a autogen.sh to it (for those who are not familiar with autogen)?

[pongraczi]

Hi, correct steps (in Debian 7), assuming all other development libs installed using your OS package manager (usually *-dev packages).

First, you have to install GFreenect and Skeltrack after that:

GFreenect: wget https://github.com/elima/GFreenect/archive/master.zip unzip master.zip cd GFreenect-master ./autogen.sh ./configure --prefix=/usr make make install

Skeltrack: wget https://github.com/joaquimrocha/Skeltrack/archive/master.zip unzip master.zip cd Skeltrack-master ./autogen.sh ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-examples=yes --enable-tests=yes make make install

[mingjun90]

Hi pongraczi after make install, how to run the /tests/test-skeleton.c? I tried several ways and there were different problems. I guess I use the wrong way. could you please tell something about it?

[denimalpaca]

Hi I'm trying to install, I did exactly as pongraczi described (except for enable-tests=no or I get an error) but I still get test-kinect.c:1:23: fatal error: gfreenect.h: No such file or directory when I try to make in examples. I'm running Ubuntu 14.04. Any insight?

[joaquimrocha]

Hi,

You should have gfreenect installed and in a known path (to include the header files) in order to build the examples.

@mingjun90 , Sorry for such a big delay in replying to you! Do you successfully generate the executable? When you run it, what do you get?

[denimalpaca]

I have gfreenect installed (as well as freenect) in my home directory along with skeletrack, Do I have to manually set path variables?

@denimalpaca The path has to be visible so if you installed it in your home dir, chances are that it is not picking it up. Try adding the dir where you have installed the GFreenect's headers to C_INCLUDE_PATH: export C_INCLUDE_PATH=YOUR_DIR:$C_INCLUDE_PATH

Don't forget to add the .so to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in a similar fashion.

Hope it works!

[Greeshma-babu]

@joaquimrocha . can you please make it clear.. because it create lots of confusions....

[joaquimrocha]

@Greeshma-babu what do you mean? The LD_LIBRARY_PATH? You set this environment variable to the directory where GFreenect is installed, like: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib64/:/usr/local/lib/:/usr/local/lib64:/usr/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

before you compile Skeltrack's examples.

[Greeshma-babu]

Hello sir, Thanks for your reply.I used to work in window OS,suddenly i need to switch on to Debian linux for my mini project. I don't know the basics of linux command that's why i am not able to follow your instructions and stuck on the last command.Sorry for that inconvenience.

Yours Faithfully, Greeshma Babu

@Greeshma-babu

What do you get when you type:

pkg-config clutter-1.0 --cflags --libs

?

[LuisAlbertZM]

Hello everyone!

I am experiencing the exact same problem. When I type: pkg-config clutter-1.0 --cflags --libs I get:

-pthread -I/usr/local/include/clutter-1.0 -I/usr/local/include/atk-1.0 -I/usr/local/include/cogl -I/usr/local/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/local/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/pixman-1 -I/usr/include/libpng12 -I/usr/include/gdk-pixbuf-2.0 -I/usr/include/libpng12 -I/usr/include/json-glib-1.0 -I/usr/include/libdrm -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/harfbuzz -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/freetype2 -L/usr/local/lib -lclutter-glx-1.0 -lcairo-gobject -latk-1.0 -lpangocairo-1.0 -lcairo -lcogl-pango -lcogl -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -pthread -ljson-glib-1.0 -lgio-2.0 -lGL -ldrm -lpangoft2-1.0 -lpango-1.0 -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -lfontconfig -lfreetype -lX11 -lXext -lXdamage -lXfixes -lXcomposite -lXi

I can really get whatś going on, so far I have spent quite a lot of time trying to get it running. It seems that for some reason the example program can't load clutter things.

I am facing the same problem , any updates ?

[joaquimrocha]

Sorry, it's been many years since I last compiled Skeltrack. It looks like it cannot find clutter. This is provided by libclutter-1.0-dev on Debian.

I cannot unfortunately dedicate time to Skeltrack any more, so I cannot look into this in detail.
