libfreenect2 for windows platform

[LauraMocanu]

I tried running mvn with -Djavacpp.platform param. If I use 'linux-x86_64' all works fine, but with 'windows-x86_64' it tries to find library 'libfreenect2:jar:windows-x86_64' which does not exist. I suspect the same would happen for mac, because in the full distribution I only see specific libfreenect2 for linux, and 2 general ones, but which seem not to be taken into account by maven in the case when specific platform is used.

That's normal, Windows isn't supported, yet. Though, as usual, contributions are welcome! Thanks for your interest.

[LauraMocanu]

Thank you for your answer. I'm a little confused though. The ReadME said one could use windows. And I can see all the other jars do have windows versions.

[saudet]

I'm not seeing "Windows" written anywhere:

This readme: https://github.com/bytedeco/javacv.
In pom.xml I have

<dependency>
		<groupId>org.bytedeco</groupId>
		<artifactId>javacv-platform</artifactId>
		<version>1.3.2</version>
</dependency>

and I run maven with -Djavacpp.platform=windows-x86_64

[saudet]

I still see no mention of libfreenect2 support on Windows... Again, if you wish for more documentation, contributions are welcome! I cannot possibly do everything on my own. Please let me know if you have any questions though, and I will answer.

I will reformulate my question: how can I run -Djavacpp.platform=windows-x86_64 as it sais here
"This downloads binaries for all platforms, but to get binaries for only one platform we can set the javacpp.platform system property (via the -D command line option) to something like android-arm, linux-x86_64, macosx-x86_64, windows-x86_64, etc. "
and make it work? Because it gives an error and does not download anything. Thanks again!

[saudet]

Ah, yes, it's missing. But we can just exclude it as a dependency.

[saudet]

I added support for Mac OS X and Windows in the commit above.

They provide binaries for Windows, so it was easier than I thought!

@saudet is this fix released yet? Just tried to download the binaries for windows-x86_64 and I had the same problem related by @LauraMocanu .

Note that using version 1.3 (not 1.3.3 or 1.3.2) works fine.

[saudet]

Please try 1.3.4-SNAPSHOT.

And now included in newly released version 1.4. Thanks for reporting!
