Hi guys,

Has somebody here used vcglib? I got stuck in making it work with visual studio 2010. I will really appreaciate if someone gives me a hand.

Thanks,

At the moment, I got bunch of error msgs:

So, I think there should be some problems with linking vcglib with visual studio. I am still looking around to find out a solution for this issue.

Apparently you are not compiling wrap/ply/plylib.cpp so the linker won't find these symbols.
