Problems w/ precompiled dlls(none of those mentioned before)

Hi all.

I'm new too OgreDotNet and I'm trying to set it up in my PC so that I can start with my school assigment. I've taken 2 approaches so far: follow the indications in the wiki to install OgreDotNet (install OgreSDK, swig, etc), and after I discovered this forum, tried to get the precompiled dlls posted here.

Unfortunately, none of the approaches has been sucessful and since I prefer to use the precompiled dlls I'm posting the error I get when trying to run all of the Demo*.exe in the Debug folder. I tried with the vs2003 and vs2005 versions, and I also copied all the OgreSDK dlls into the Debug folder.

I also tried the release versions and didn't work.

Am I missing something? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help.

This is the exception thrown:
<!-- Fragment start -->
### Exception The type initializer for 'OgreDotNet.OgreBindingsPINVOKE' threw a

I can't run the 2005 debug ether. release works.

what do you have installed 2003 or 2005 ?
was there an exception in the ogre.log file? post it here.

Hello rasta, and thanks for your support. This is what I found on the Ogre.log file after trying to execute the Release version for VS2005.

By the way, I have VSnet2003 and VSNet2005 installed, as well as .NET1.1 and .NET2.0.

I have the OGRE_HOME var set to the right path, and the C:\OgreSDK path doesnt change in the log file if I change the OGRE_HOME value. Im using WindowsXP Pro SP2.

Thanks again,

RODOLFO

<!-- End of Ogre.log -->

I get exactly the same Ogre.log with the VS2003 version (OgreDotNet_vs7p1_Bin\Release)... Debug can't be run either.

The OGRE_HOME var is only for buiding from source so the projects can find the include and lib directories. Check your Resources.cfg make sure all the paths are correct. Also make sure not to mix forward slashes "/" and back slashes "\", just make them all back slashes since you use windows.

also make sure that OgreCore.zip is not currupt, Try to extract it.

Thanks a million, rasta. That was it. Many of the samples run now in the release version and that's enough for me. However, I find convenient to inform that:

DemoCeguiMenus.exe crashes with a windows error message: "Microsoft Visual C++ runtime library. Abnormal termination". There is no DemoCeguiMenus.log and below is the ogre.log.

DemoWinForms.exe fails with a "Common Language Runtime Debugging Services: Application has generated an exception that could not be handled" message. No errors nor exception in ogre.log.

DemoCompositor.exe, DemoCustomObjects.exe, DemoFireworks.exe and DemoGrass.exe fail and dont show anything, not even an error message nor exceptions in ogre.log.

DemoFireworks.exe fails because it doesnt find this path, which I cant find anywhere in the OgreSDK installation: skybox/Starfield

DemoGAPyramid.exe fails with this exception in the log file:
### Exception The type initializer for "GangstaDotNet.GangstaBindingsPINVOKE" threw an exception.

<!-- End of Ogre.lo for DemoCeguiMenus.exe -->

DemoCeguiMenus.exe crashes with a windows error message: "Microsoft Visual C++ runtime library. Abnormal termination". There is no DemoCeguiMenus.log and below is the ogre.log.
This one I'm not sure what to do about. I think Maleficus made this but never put the media in cvs. It uses the Windowslook CEGUI theme and I'v not been able to find that anywhere. I tried to make it use the TaharezLook but it failes with an error in the CEGUI.log, somthing about MenubarItem not registered. i gess Windowslook and TaharezLook are different.


DemoWinForms.exe fails with a "Common Language Runtime Debugging Services: Application has generated an exception that could not be handled" message. No errors nor exception in ogre.log.

DemoCompositor.exe, DemoCustomObjects.exe, DemoFireworks.exe and DemoGrass.exe fail and dont show anything, not even an error message nor exceptions in ogre.log.
try opening a command prompt and cd to where the exe is and running these there maybe something written to the console and not to a log.

DemoFireworks.exe fails because it doesnt find this path, which I cant find anywhere in the OgreSDK installation: skybox/Starfield
that is a material defined in ogredotnet\Samples\Media\SkyBoxes.material.
Make sure that the ODN media dir is correct in your Resources.cfg.


DemoGAPyramid.exe fails with this exception in the log file:
### Exception The type initializer for "GangstaDotNet.GangstaBindingsPINVOKE" threw an exception.

for the Gangsta demo you need to get the GangstaWrapper binarys http://www.ogre3d.org/phpBB2addons/viewtopic.php?t=1203

There isn't really a reason why you'd need to release the Debug binaries. The CLR P/Invokes actually run extremely faster in release mode...

But the real question is... Why can't even I, who built it, run debug version of VS2005 binnaries. I can run 2003 stuff debug/releas fine

Hi Rastaman, and thanks for your help. I'm sorry I've taken so long to reply.

Thanks to your suggestions I have my OgreDotNet setted up and running great. Thanks.

However, there is a big drawback which I see you've already noticed. I dont know for you, but I find very useful to debug my applications and I can not use the Debug version of the OgreDotNet binaries, neither 2003's nor 2005's. Is there anything you (or us if you want my help) can do to get it to work?

RODOLFO

Please read the wiki instructions, I just updated the part about using ODN in your projects.
http://www.ogre3d.org/wiki/index.php/Installing_OgreDotNet#Using_the_OgreDotNet_Wrapper_in_your_project

hope this helps

Thanks a million Rasta. Everything is ok now.

I'll check thsi out later, I was experiancing the same problem with VS.net 2005 and I have been devoloping with the release versions with no debugging which obviously is not an ideal solution.

Thumbs up if they do work though
