After installing OSX 10.9, PCL does not build anymore. There were a few compilation and linking problems related to VTK 6.0, that I resolved somehow see this discussion. Now there is a compilation error

[ 21%] Building CXX object filters/CMakeFiles/pcl_filters.dir/src/extract_indices.cpp.o

Any ideas how to resolve this?

I also tried to compile the latest version of https://github.com/kylelutz/pcl.git and with the vtk6-fixes branch, but then I get some eigen error ...

The eigen issue has been solved here https://github.com/PointCloudLibrary/pcl/issues/283 Regarding the rest, I'm getting the same errors as yourself above after upgrading to Mavericks. V frustrating...

By adding the two following lines in the file CMakeLists.txt

SET(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -ftemplate-depth=1024") SET(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -stdlib=libstdc++")

under

string(TOLOWER ${PROJECT_NAME} PROJECT_NAME_LOWER)

I've managed to get PCL 1.7.1 built succesfully on OS 10.9. That should also work for the trunk.

It seems that these kind of issues boil down to the swap of defaults libstdc++ / libc++ in Xcode 5.0.1

Thanks Ivano! It did help to pass those errors. I got stuck with linking errors. Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64: "vtkObjectBase::PrintHeader(std::ostream&, vtkIndent)", referenced from: vtable for pcl::visualization::PointPickingCallback in point_picking_event.cpp.o vtable for pcl::visualization::PCLVisualizerInteractorStyle in interactor_style.cpp.o ...

What version of VTK did you install?

Artem ( 2013-10-26 12:03:14 -0500 )edit

Adding -DBUILD_visualization=off allowed me successfuly built PCL. Did you have to turn visualisation off too?

Artem ( 2013-10-26 12:20:57 -0500 )edit

Awesome. No, I didn't need the VTK I'm afraid. Anyway here (https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads) you can find the new CUDA library for OS X 10.9 rolled out from NVIDIA just last night.

Just a small side question, did you manage to install qt? It doesnt compile for me.

Hansg91 ( 2013-10-27 06:46:38 -0500 )edit

Nope, here is a discussion on this issue https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/21000

Artem ( 2013-10-27 08:42:26 -0500 )edit

I managed to compile Qt, using the patches from here: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,69325
