This needs to be added to the library finding code. > > Using WITH_LASZIP it gets the wrong LASZIP_INCLUDE_DIR. It gets it to > /usr/local/bin, changing it manually to /usr/local/include fixes it. I've had this one show up from time to time too, but I haven't been able to reliably track down what causes it. I'll look again and see. > > Using WITH_ENDIANAWARE I got > liblas/src/point.cpp: In member function ‘uint16_t > liblas::Point::GetIntensity() const’: > liblas/src/point.cpp:563: error: no matching function for call to > ‘bitsToInt(uint16_t&, const std::vector<unsigned char, > std::allocator<unsigned char> >&, size_t&)’ > liblas/src/point.cpp: In member function ‘uint16_t > liblas::Point::GetPointSourceID() const’: > liblas/src/point.cpp:791: error: no matching function for call to > ‘bitsToInt(uint16_t&, const std::vector<unsigned char, > std::allocator<unsigned char> >&, size_t&)’ > make[2]: *** [src/CMakeFiles/las.dir/point.cpp.o] Error 1 > make[1]: *** [src/CMakeFiles/las.dir/all] Error 2 > make: *** [all] Error 2 Fixed. http://trac.liblas.org/ticket/214 WITH_ENDIANAWARE is unfortunately named. Enabling that switch intends to use code to do runtime endian aware data copies. As Mike said, this is really only relevant on big endian boxen, and it is much faster to not enable it if you know you're working in a little-endian environment. With OS X, this is now almost always the case, but with 10.6 and XCode, you can cross-compile things back to PowerPC. It is possible to build an XCode project that makes this easy to manage, but I don't know how to do it. Additionally, this code hasn't actually been tested on SPARC or any big endian box as far as I know, so expect some hiccups if you're serious about needing big endian support for libLAS (and I know for sure big endian is not supported on LASzip at this time -- contact Martin with some contracting language if you need it :). The moral of the story is don't use WITH_ENDIANAWARE unless you know you need it. _______________________________________________ Liblas-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/liblas-devel
