Newcomer! In need of some help. [message #1454055]

Hey

I'm new to Eclipse CDT.

I've recently started my masters with a Grasping Optimization Problem (robotics) and in my project I need to include a set of external libraries known as Simox (if you are wondering what they are, you can check it in google Smile

).

The script I'm trying to compile in Eclipse is:

#include <VirtualRobot/VirtualRobotCommon.h>

#include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>

// I'll need these later on
#include <Eigen/Core>
#include <Eigen/Geometry>

int main ()
{
	VirtualRobot::RobotPtr iCub = VirtualRobot::RobotIO::loadRobot("/home/zenogueira/Programs/simox/VirtualRobot/data/robots/iCub/iCub.xml");

	return 0;
}

Which calls a function from the VirtualRobot library.

I've included the Simox root folder in the Include Directories of the project (Project Properties -> C/C++ General -> Paths and Symbols). I'm getting an error that tells me that

 loadRobot()

is undefined. RobotPtr class is defined though. RobotPtr is defined in simox/VirtualRobot/VirtualRobot.h and the loadRobot() static function is defined in simox/VirtualRobot/XML/RobotIO.h

I'm having a lot of trouble solving this. I have a linking problem and I clearly don't know what I am doing (linking was always something I didn't have to worry about before).

Can someone be kind enough and try to help me with this?

Thanks Smile
