前言
本篇文章主要介绍一下PCL库的配置过程，适合PCL入门。
一配置环境
1.win10 X64
2.Visual Studio 2013
二 准备工作
下文我们均以64位操作系统为例。首先，下载需要的文件，我将相关文件包已经上传到了网盘，下载链接为：https://pan.baidu.com/s/1WUUBR_MLA12ZBdu2ayYghQ 密码：z7fw
三 安装
1.双击安装包中的「PCL-1.8.0-AllInOne-msvc2013-win64.exe」程序，安装的时候注意选上「Add PCL to the system PATH for all users」，如图所示，这样安装程序会自动在系统环境变量中添加「PCL_ROOT」项。
以下具体内容都以我的安装路径为例：
2.安装的过程中会弹出OpenNI的安装程序，将OpenNI的安装路径设置为PCL_ROOT下的3rdParty\OpenNI2文件夹，例：
3.安装程序执行完成后，将pdb文件压缩包解压（即：PCL-1.8.0-AllInOne-msvc2013-win64-pdb.rar）,pdb文件拷贝到PCL ROOT下的bin文件夹中，例如：
D:\ProGrammeFiles\PCL1.8.0\PCL 1.8.0
四 环境变量
上面说过了安装程序会自动添加PCL_ROOT到系统环境变量中，此外还要手动添加QHull、FLANN、VTK、OpenNI2的bin目录到PATH中，例：
注意：如果安装程序没有自动添加PCL_ROOT则需要手动添加（如下图所示）
五 项目配置
1.在VS2013中新建项目。注意：VS2013中Configuration Manager（配置管理器）默认Active solution plantform(活动平台)是win32，如果安装的是x64的PCL需要将其改成x64,否则编译时候会出现奇怪的问题。
2.Solution Explorer（解决方案管理器）中右键项目->Properties(属性)
Configuration Properties（配置管理器）->C/C++->Preprocessor(预处理器)->Preprocessor Definitions（预处理定义）中添加如下两项：
_SCL_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS
_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS
3.Property Manager（属性管理器）中。
Property Manager与Solution Explorer在同一个tab布局中，如果没找到的话，可通过如下方式寻找属性管理器：菜单栏的VIEW(视图)->Other Windows(其他窗口)->Property Manager（属性管理器）。
接下来开始配置属性表，此处以debug模式下配置为例：
（1）新建一个工程「PCL_Test」，如上图，将项目设置成64位。
（2）切换属性管理器，在Debug|64位下添加新项目属性表，取名为「PCL_Debug.props」。

上面的包含目录，库目录按你自己的来，附加依赖项有些库版本不同，不同的建议去搜其他的。
六 工程测试
新建一个cpp文件，输入下列代码：
#include
#include
#include
#include
int user_data;
void viewerOneOff(pcl::visualization::PCLVisualizer& viewer)
{
viewer.setBackgroundColor(1.0, 0.5, 1.0);
pcl::PointXYZ o;
o.x = 1.0;
o.y = 0;
o.z = 0;
viewer.addSphere(o, 0.25, "sphere", 0);
std::cout << "i only run once" << std::endl;
}
void viewerPsycho(pcl::visualization::PCLVisualizer& viewer)
{
static unsigned count = 0;
std::stringstream ss;
ss << "Once per viewer loop: " << count++;
viewer.removeShape("text", 0);
viewer.addText(ss.str(), 200, 300, "text", 0);
//FIXME: possible race condition here:
user_data++;
}
int main()
{
pcl::PointCloud::Ptr cloud(new pcl::PointCloud);
pcl::io::loadPCDFile("my_point_cloud.pcd", *cloud);
pcl::visualization::CloudViewer viewer("Cloud Viewer");
//blocks until the cloud is actually rendered
viewer.showCloud(cloud);
//use the following functions to get access to the underlying more advanced/powerful
//PCLVisualizer
//This will only get called once
viewer.runOnVisualizationThreadOnce(viewerOneOff);
//This will get called once per visualization iteration
viewer.runOnVisualizationThread(viewerPsycho);
while (!viewer.wasStopped())
{
//you can also do cool processing here
//FIXME: Note that this is running in a separate thread from viewerPsycho
//and you should guard against race conditions yourself...
user_data++;
}
return 0;
}
运行之后，如果出现下图：
上下滚动下鼠标滚轮，便可以得到下图：
说明工程属性表配置成功。
七 结语
博文中所述过程，对于PCL各个版本和windows各个系统版本都有效。下载正确的PCL和VS版本，是配置的前提。从PCL All in one 安装包名称可以了解PCL版本及需要的VS版本或系统位数。
