• Install the openWNS SDK

  Install the openWNS SDK (Long high res video (~ 50MB))

Installation via bzr

This is the recommended way to fetch your own copy. The benefit in contrast to the tarball method is that you directly have your own development branch up and running with full version control support. Read the Getting Started section of the users manual which can be found here:

Documentation Overview

Installation from Tarball

• Make sure you have all the necessary software installed:

  • http://docs.openwns.org/gettingStarted/GettingStarted.html#prerequisites

• Download the tarball:

  • Download/openwns-sdk.tgz

• Unpack the tarball and run the installation routine:

  • tar -xvzf openwns-sdk.tgz
    cd openwns-sdk
    ./playground.py install

    Note: if you are on Cygwin you need to add the --static option: ./playground.py install --static
    See: Screenshot: Compiling openWNS

• After that you may run the unit tests to see if everything is fine:

  • cd tests/unit/unitTests/
    ./openwns -t -v

    Note: -t starts the unit tests, -v puts openWNS into verbose mode
