Getting OgreODE CVS to compile

Here are the steps I took in trying to compile OgreODE:
-Installed OgreSDK Eihort
-Used CVS, got OgreODE
-opened OgreOde_Core, compiled
-commented out line 59 of OgreOdeJoint.h (error C2065: 'dparamERP': undeclared identifier
-commented out line 278 of OgreOdeJoint.cpp (c:\ogreode\src\OgreOdeJoint.cpp(278): error C3861: 'dJointGetBallParam': identifier not found, even with argument-dependent lookup
), replaced it with "return 1;"
-commented out line 273 of OgreOdeJoint.cpp (c:\ogreode\src\OgreOdeJoint.cpp(273): error C3861: 'dJointSetBallParam': identifier not found, even with argument-dependent lookup
)

Got these errors:

OgreOde_Core error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall OgreOde::DebugContact::~DebugContact(void)" (??1DebugContact@OgreOde@@QAE@XZ) referenced in function "public: void * __thiscall OgreOde::DebugContact::`scalar deleting destructor'(unsigned int)" (??_GDebugContact@OgreOde@@QAEPAXI@Z)

Have I followed the procedure properly? What's my next step?

Oh yes, I'm using VS 2003 and the VC7.1 OgreOde_Core VC++ Project

did you added in project properties library nam to ode.dll or ode.lib check if u have proper namespacing for functions u get errors, thats just guesses, i used VS 3 or 4 years ago

i have the same problems compiling OgreOde under windows: dparamERP, and i couldnt solve that....
but the same cvs version of OgreOde goes fine under gentoo with ode 0.9

The project->properties->linker->input of OgreOde_Core already has ode.lib and OgreMain_d.lib setup as Additional Dependencies.

And all I really want to do is get collisions to work...

Ok, this is what i doing to make it work:
-install ogre
-get last ogreode and ode (0.9?)
-open tool->options->Proj&Sol->Vc++ directories and add this:

1. include files:
   E:/Ogre/include
   E:/OgreOde/include
   E:/Ode/include
   
   libs:
   E:/Ogre/lib
   E:/OgreOde/lib[/list:u]
   
   Of course change E: to you directory
   
   You shouldn't get any errors like
   error C2065: 'dparamERP': undeclared identifier
   you get them if you not include Ode/include i think
   
   this working with my ogreode but i using SDK version

Here're my includes:
C:\ode-0.9\include\ode
C:\ode-0.9\include
C:\OgreSDK\include
C:\ogreode\include

And my libs:
C:\ode-0.9\lib
C:\ode-0.9\lib\releasedll
C:\ode-0.9\lib\releaselib
C:\ode-0.9\lib\debuglib
C:\ode-0.9\lib\debugdll

I've tried this both in release and debug mode, and I'm getting the same errors. (And I still have to comment out the lines in OgreOdeJoint.h)

what project file to you open when you compile ogreode? try that one that has "source" in its name, afair not all of them work.

I tried both of those, still the same 5 errors.

be sure to delete
C:\OgreSDK\include\ode (whole folder)
C:\OgreSDK\lib\ode.lib

it's an old ode version installed by OgreSDK used in some ogre demos.

Whoa, when I did that, I got a whole bunch of other scary errors (and non-ogreode Ogre leated programs wouldn't compile, either.)

:S

You shouldnt, I guess ekt is right and you compile against that version. Make sure you link to the right ode.lib, e.g. by adding

#pragma comment(lib, "../../ode/lib/debug/ode.lib")

to your project, where that path leads to the latest version.
Thats the problem when you add all those paths to the standard directories of vc. Better add those paths per project only, so your ogre programs that use the old ode version will still work.

I ve tried compiling my ogreode with ogre (1.4.6) and ode v0.9 in VS2005

It gets compiled in debug config.
But i end up with these error whn trying to compile in release configuraton.

Wht cud hav gone wrong :S

Have you read my tutorial? Its new:
http://www.ogre3d.org/wiki/index.php/Compile_OgreOde

I followed ur tutorial.. I cudnt find the line to b commented in ogremovableobject.h
still getting the same error while linking
