windows系统下配置PCL1.8.0和VS2013

PCL 作为一个优秀的点云类开源库集成了大量先进的点云处理算法，值得LiDAR工作者研究学习。从最初使用PCL1.6版本到1.7再到1.8，已经经历了几个年头，PCL中的算法也再不断更新完善。现在重写这篇博客，从最基础的PCL配置做起。PCL的配置与开发环境有关，本文在windows 7 64位系统下以32位PCL配置为例进行讲解。

windows 64位系统下，可以开发32位软件和64位软件，我本人会将32和64位的PCL同时安装在系统下，其他朋友可以根据选择安装相应版本的PCL，安装过程和本文所述过程一致。

安装VS2013

VS2013旗舰版不区分32位或64位系统，本人使用的是旗舰版VS2013安装过程简单，在此不再赘述。

安装PCL1.8.0

PCL各个版本的安装、配置过程都是一致的，都可以参考博文中方法。

下载PCL

图中分别是32位和64位windows下和VS2013配套的PCL1.8.0版本

安装PCL

安装过程中我会把必要过程截图出来，未做截图说明的，默认即可。

修改安装路径。默认的安装路径中有空格，自定义路径应避免空格和中文字符出现。一般使用选择默认路径即可，因为笔者会基于PCL+Qt做开发或编译时，当路径中有空格时候会影响Qt和PCL的集成。若单独使用PCL路径中有无空格无关紧要。

安装过程中会弹出OpenNI的安装（前面安装组件时，默认是选择安装的），安装可以选择默认路径，这里本人修改了安装路径如图。

整个安装过程会持续10分钟左右，耐心等待即可。

配置

添加环境变量

根据自己安装的路径将下面文件的路径添加到图中系统环境变量中，添加完毕后不要忘记了重启或者注销电脑。

D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\bin
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\3rdParty\FLANN\bin
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\3rdParty\Qhull\bin
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\3rdParty\VTK\bin
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\OpenNI2\Tools

新建一个工程

新建win32控制台程序，空项目。

新建属性表

使用建属性表的方式配置PCL的优点有：1.下次项目直接添加该属性表到工程里即完成PCL的配置，简化配置过程；2.便于管理，可以配置多种属性表；3.不使用PCL的项目不受配置的影响，提升其它项目的编译速度。

打开属性管理器

新建一个属性表：命名位PCL1.8.0Debug，发布应用时会使用Release版本的，调试时使用Debug作为区别。因为博文中安装的是32位PCL，又因为测试Debug版本，所以再Debug|Win32下新建属性表。打开该属性表，进行配置。

添加包含目录。

D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\include\pcl-1.8
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\3rdParty\Boost\include\boost-1_59
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\3rdParty\Eigen\include\eigen3
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\3rdParty\FLANN\include
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\3rdParty\Qhull\include
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\3rdParty\VTK\include\vtk-7.0
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\OpenNI2\Include

添加库目录

D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\lib
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\3rdParty\Boost\lib
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\3rdParty\FLANN\lib
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\3rdParty\Qhull\lib
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\3rdParty\VTK\lib
D:\CLibrary\PCL1.8.0\PCL1.8.0X86\OpenNI2\Lib

添加附加依赖项，这里添加的Debug版本的lib文件，当发布应用的时候要使用Release版本的。调试Debug和发布Release区别很大，效率也不一样，具体区别可以问度娘。

下面是debug版本的静态库，这么lib文件，如果一个个去选择那就费时费力了。

本人这篇博客中脚本可以方便的将lib文件名提取到文本中。

出现错误

c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual studio 12.0\vc\include\xmemory(348): error C4996: 'std::_Uninitialized_copy0': Function call with parameters that may be unsafe - this call relies on the caller to check that the passed values are correct. To disable this warning, use -D_SCL_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS

解决方法

预处理器中添加：_SCL_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS即可。

配置成功，到这里配置也就结束了，希望你配置顺利。

提示1：VS默认是32位工程，若需要配置64位，方法和博文中过程一样。只是在VS中配置64位的库即可。

这是64库时的选项。

提示2：release和debug版本的配置过程一致，过程中注意静态链接库使用release版本的，vs中选择release的属性表和编译release版本的工程即可。

结语

博文中所述过程对于PCL各个版本和windows各个系统版本都有效。下载正确的PCL和VS版本，是配置的前提。从PCL All in one安装包名称可以了解PCL版本及需要的VS版本或系统位数。
