iOS getting started tutorial

By pizzapocket100 on Wed, 06/20/2012 - 17:11
Hi, I'm just starting to experiment with vuforia and I was wondering if someone could give me a quick tutorial on how to start an AR project from scratch. My main trouble right now is adding the libQCAR.a library to the project, but any other tips or tricks would be great. Thanks

You can add it to Frameworks from /vuforia-sdk-ios-1-5-8/build/lib/arm using the Add Files To [ Project Name ] option. It's typically a lot easier to customize the samples, rather than build a project from scratch.

Thanks for the reply. I'll use the samples. Just wondering though, when I add libQCAR.a in the way you describe, I get errors like: "Lexical or Preprocessor Issue 'QCAR/Tool.h' file not found". What would be causing those kinds of errors?

Have a look at this thread as it describes problems developers have had with include paths etc.

Hi chwastek,

Apologies as this is due to the portal upgrade - we are aware of the problem and hope to have it fixed soon.
