# Building IDS uEye Plugin Only
|
|
|
|
This guide explains how to build only the IDS uEye GStreamer plugin from the gst-plugins-vision project.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
1. **IDS uEye SDK** must be installed on your system
|
|
- Default location (Windows): `C:\Program Files\IDS\uEye\Develop`
|
|
- If installed elsewhere, set the `IDSUEYE_DIR` CMake variable
|
|
|
|
2. **Build tools**:
|
|
- CMake (version 2.8.0 or higher)
|
|
- Visual Studio 2019 or newer (on Windows)
|
|
- GStreamer development files (1.2.0 or higher)
|
|
|
|
3. **Required GStreamer components**:
|
|
- GStreamer base library
|
|
- GStreamer video library
|
|
- GLib2
|
|
- GObject
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
### Quick Build (Windows)
|
|
|
|
Simply run the provided batch script:
|
|
|
|
```batch
|
|
build_idsueye_only.bat
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or provide a custom GStreamer path:
|
|
|
|
```batch
|
|
build_idsueye_only.bat "C:\path\to\gstreamer"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will:
|
|
1. Create a `build_idsueye` directory
|
|
2. Use the standalone IDS uEye CMakeLists configuration
|
|
3. Configure the project with CMake
|
|
4. Build only the IDS uEye plugin
|
|
5. Output: `build_idsueye\sys\idsueye\Release\libgstidsueye.dll`
|
|
|
|
**Default GStreamer location:** `C:\bin\gstreamer\1.0\msvc_x86_64`
|
|
|
|
### Manual Build
|
|
|
|
If you prefer manual control or need to customize the build:
|
|
|
|
```batch
|
|
# Create build directory
|
|
mkdir build_idsueye
|
|
cd build_idsueye
|
|
|
|
# Configure (adjust generator as needed)
|
|
cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64
|
|
|
|
# Build only IDS uEye target
|
|
cmake --build . --config Release --target gstidsueye
|
|
|
|
# Or for Debug build
|
|
cmake --build . --config Debug --target gstidsueye
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Custom IDS uEye SDK Location
|
|
|
|
If your IDS uEye SDK is installed in a non-standard location:
|
|
|
|
```batch
|
|
cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64 -DIDSUEYE_DIR="C:\Path\To\IDS\uEye\Develop"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Linux Build
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
mkdir build_idsueye
|
|
cd build_idsueye
|
|
cmake ..
|
|
make gstidsueye
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Output
|
|
|
|
The built plugin will be located at:
|
|
- **Windows Release**: `build_idsueye\sys\idsueye\Release\libgstidsueye.dll`
|
|
- **Windows Debug**: `build_idsueye\sys\idsueye\Debug\libgstidsueye.dll`
|
|
- **Linux**: `build_idsueye/sys/idsueye/libgstidsueye.so`
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
To install the plugin to the GStreamer plugin directory:
|
|
|
|
```batch
|
|
cmake --build . --config Release --target install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or manually copy the DLL to your GStreamer plugins directory (typically `C:\gstreamer\1.0\msvc_x86_64\lib\gstreamer-1.0\`).
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### IDS uEye SDK Not Found
|
|
|
|
If CMake cannot find the IDS uEye SDK:
|
|
1. Verify the SDK is installed
|
|
2. Check the installation path
|
|
3. Set `IDSUEYE_DIR` explicitly in the CMake command
|
|
|
|
### Missing Dependencies
|
|
|
|
If GStreamer dependencies are not found:
|
|
1. Ensure GStreamer and development headers are installed
|
|
2. Add GStreamer to your system PATH
|
|
3. Set `GSTREAMER_ROOT` environment variable if needed
|
|
|
|
### Link Errors
|
|
|
|
Make sure you're building for the correct architecture (x64 vs x86) matching your IDS uEye SDK installation. |
