Unable to add ground to an opensim model

[Jan Thomas]

Hi,
I'm new to opensim, I have been following the developers guide ,some how I can't get past exercise 2 I.e adding ground to the opensim model could anyone help me out with a step by step procedure of how to add the ground. Thank you

[Jan Thomas]

Hi,
In the step 2 of performing the simulation Part 1(Developer's guide) ie: add ground to the model, I tried to compile and run the code in VS2010. but I get error in the the following

ground.addDisplayGeometry("ground.vtp");
ground.addDisplayGeometry("anchor1.vtp");
ground.addDisplayGeometry("anchor2.vtp");

that reads Error: this declaration has no storage class or type specifier.
can someone please help me with this. I am also new to opensim, c++ and cmake and have been trying to learn them all at once.

regards,
Jan

Hi Jan,

Jan, try to write all the codes inside the main(). Hope it will solve your problem.

Code: Select all

 int main(){
 try{
    // Put all the codes btwn these braces.
}
    catch (const std::exception& ex)
    {
        std::cout << ex.what() << std::endl;
        return 1;
    }

	system ("pause");
	return 0;
}

PS. Also try to include your geometry file folder, along with your .osim file inside the release folder( where the .exe file is present) .

All the best,

Nithin

Hi Jan,

Looking at your screen capture, the problem code has been written outside the function main's opening/closing braces and so the variables are undefined.

Please consult the file
sdk\APIExamples\ExampleMain\OutputReference\TugOfWar_Complete.cpp under the distribution for a completed example.

Best of luck,
-Ayman

Why can't my opensim find the addDisplayGeometry function?

[Mario Garcia]

I had the same doubt...Thanks for solving!!

Hello,

The method has been removed in version 4.0, please refer to the CPP examples under the OpenSim 4.0 distributed resources for the new call sequence to add/attach Geometry.
