Dependencies

The TerraLib library is split into several modules providing different functionality, therefore, each have a particular set of dependencies.

Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 C++ users can download and unpack the suitable third-party libraries compiled for building 64-bit version of TerraLib with Qt5.4.1 support. Choose the right version specified by x.y.z at terralib-x.y.z-3rdparty-msvc-2013-win64:

or directly from the links below:

Alternativily,

After unzipping, for example at C:\TL5\ , add to your PATH the third party and the QT location: C:\TL5\terralib5-3rdparty-msvc-2013-win64\lib;C:\Qt\Qt5.4.1\5.4\msvc2013_opengl\bin or wait to set the environment inside Visual Studio 1).

MacOS and Linux users can check the dependencies document.

Once the environment is ready you can clone terralib source code and build the library. Alternatively, you can download the source code from a zip file .

1) after ALL_BUILD, set the debugging environment to terraview project, Properties→Configuration Properties→Debugging, set the Environment as PATH=C:\TL5\terralib5-3rdparty-msvc-2013-win64\lib;C:\Qt\Qt5.4.1\5.4\msvc2013_opengl\bin
