Hi all,
I come from a VVVV background and I’m looking to explore OpenFrameworks, but unfortunately I haven’t been able to get any of the examples to compile in order to start getting my bearings.
I’ve installed msys2 & qt creator following the guide on the setup page, but I’ve clearly done something wrong as I’m getting heaps of compile errors like
“…libs\poco\lib\msys2\libPocoNetSSL.a(HTTPSClientSession.o)
error: duplicate section `.rdata$_ZTIN4Poco3Net4Impl17SocketAddressImplE[__ZTIN4Poco3Net4Impl17SocketAddressImplE]’ has different size”
and others.
I’m keen to troubleshoot this error, but I’m new to the world of OF, C++ and IDEs and I haven’t been able to find any information I can use to learn what I need to know to fix the problem.
In the setup guide, this line describes adding a compiler:
“To use QtCreator with msys2 go to Qt Creator > Preferences > Build and Run > Compilers and if it’s not there add a compiler that points to c:\msys64\mingw32\bin then in the Kits tab configure the Desktop Kit to use gcc from msys2.”
Unfortunately, I’m prompted to select a specific file within the bin directory, but the information here doesn’t specify which I need to choose. Likewise, I’m not completely sure how to interpret how to specify the right settings in the Kits tab.
If there’s any information that goes into a bit more detail on how to set this up and get running from start to finish, I’d love to check it out. I’ve done a bit of googling, but it seems like just about everyone’s using linux or macs.
Thanks,
F
