ASPRS .las on linux

[dguerrero]

Hi,

It's possible to compile qCC on linux with .las support.

Thanks.

Hello, sorry for the late answer: "a priori" it should be ok . I've never tried it under Linux but as long as Liblas can be compiled under Linux it should be ok for CloudCompare.

hi, Daniel

Thanks for the answer. I'm try to copile it but don't works with the last version of liblas due to changes in the API interface, so what versión of liblas you use?

[daniel]

I've updated CC to support the last online version (1.7.02b).

You can get few directions in the trunk folder (compile_cloudcompare_with_liblas.rtf/pdf)

For the records: I've made a few changes to the trunk version. From now on, the libLAS support is no more enabled by default on Windows. This allows to get rid of the partial Boost repository and let the user use its own (a more up-to-date one!).

Oh, I may not have been very clear but the official CloudCompare release has always been able to import/export LAS files.

With the new CMake version, integration of LibLAS is still optional but you only need to set a few paths to Boost and LibLAS if you want to enable it (see the wiki).
