Home < NaviTrack Tutorial:Creating module:Adding moduleIn this page, we will add "MyTutorialModule" to your NaviTrack.
Contents
Step 0: Getting sample source codes
You can download from File:NTTutorial May2007.zip.
To extract files in UNIX,
% unzip NTTutorial_May2007.zip
Step 1: Deploy your source codes
Put your *.cxx files into "src/input/", and *.h into "include/OpenTracker/input".
In UNIX:
% cp *.cxx <your NaviTrack directory>/src/input/ % cp *.h <your NaviTrack directory>/include/OpenTracker/input/
Step 2: Configure Cmake
Configure your "CMakeLists.txt" at the root of your NaviTrack source tree, so that NaviTrack is compiled with your own module.
In SET(SOURCES ...) section in CMakeLists.txt (starts from L.126), add paths to your *.cxx files as:
SET(SOURCES src/core/Event.cxx src/core/EventAttributeBase.cxx src/core/Translator.cxx ... src/input/CustomTransformation.cxx src/input/SpaceTravellerModule.cxx src/input/MyTutorialModule.cxx <----- Here !!! src/tool/OT_ACE_Log.cxx src/input/QuatToMatrix.cxx src/types/Image.cxx )
Step 3: Register your module in SPLModule
SPLModule is a special module to register all NaviTrack modules, whenever the NaviTracker is started. This registration enables the NaviTrack to recognize names of modules described in a XML configuration file.
To register your own module, you need to add just two lines into src/misc/SPLModules.cxx.
Include the header file
At the including section in src/misc/SPLModules.cxx:
#include <OpenTracker/OpenTracker.h> #include <OpenTracker/misc/SPLCommonNodeFactory.h> #include <OpenTracker/core/Configurator.h> #include <OpenTracker/input/EndoScoutModule.h> ... #include <OpenTracker/input/MyTutorialModule.h> <--- Here !!!
Call OT_REGISTER_MODULE() macro
Add your own module using OT_REGISTER_MODULE() macro in addSPLModules() function (L.50-):
OPENTRACKER_API int addSPLModules() { OT_REGISTER_MODULE(NaviTrack, NULL); OT_REGISTER_MODULE(SpaceTravellerModule, NULL); OT_REGISTER_MODULE(NDIModule, NULL); OT_REGISTER_MODULE(MyTutorialModule, NULL); <--- Here !!! ....
Step 4: Cmake and build it!
Now you are ready to generate new Makefile and build your NaviTrack.
Run CMake to apply your change in CMakeLists.txt to Makefile and start building.
Go back to Creating module
