what exactly to include

[shotgunnutter]

Hi,

I've sucessfully compiled the OSX package using Cmake and finished it with Xcode. The demos work. Now, i want to add this to an existing project but am unsure of what to include. According to the user manual i need the bullet /src folder. However, there are quite a lot of files in there. Here is a directory listing of the /src folder

Code: Select all

Should I make a copy of this folder and delete the jamfile and cmake info? what would the correct directory structure look like? I want to create a folder of only the required libs and source files.

Thanks.

Yes, you need at least files from the Bullet/src folder. It is up to you to remove anything from there (feel free to removed build files if you have your own).

You should keep the directory structure from Bullet/src intact.

Dependencies are BulletSoftBody -> BulletDynamics -> BulletCollision -> LinearMath.

So if you only want collision detection, you can delete the BulletDynamics and BulletSoftBody folders. If you only need rigid body dynamics (no soft), just delete BulletSoftBody.
Hope this helps,
Erwin

Thats great, I've made a copy, and left the directory structure intact and stripped out all the remains of cmake make jam etc.

Thanks for the advice.
