[Openexr-devel] Linker errors

[Bo Huang]

Hi. 

I am trying to compile OpenExr on Windows 7 64bit (my only system) with VS2008, 
which converts the vs8 solution for OpenExr and ilmbase.
I have them at
L:\code\ilmbase-1.0.2
L:\code\openexr-1.7.0
L:\code\zlib-1.2.5


Then I can build ilmbase-1.0.2 out of the box, which creates
L:\Deploy\bin
L:\Deploy\include
L:\Deploy\lib
and I place required .libs including zlib for OpenEXR build.

But when I build OpenEXR, I encounter:
Error   35      fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'ImfRgbaFile.h': 
No such file or directory l:\code\openexr-1.7.0\IlmImfExamples\drawImage.h      
  36
Error   31      fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'ImfArray.h': No 
such file or directory    l:\code\openexr-1.7.0\exrenvmap\EnvmapImage.h   44
Error   34      fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'ImfOutputFile.h': 
No such file or directory       
l:\code\openexr-1.7.0\IlmImfExamples\generalInterfaceExamples.cpp       46
Error   33      fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 
'ImfTiledOutputFile.h': No such file or directory  
l:\code\openexr-1.7.0\IlmImfExamples\generalInterfaceTiledExamples.cpp  46

These I can fix by adding the include directories they are in.

But then building again I get many linker errors, which seem to be some 
template code not defined. So best I ask here as I'm likely doing something 
wrong setting up.
