How to program using OpenNI in Visual C++ 2010 express

Hi Guys 

      Today i am going to show you how we can set OpenNI in Visual studio 2010

Procedure

1)Install OpenNI in Windows 7

2)Creating an empty project



3)Check the enviornmental variable properly set or not. Which will automatically set while installing openNI

4)Add an empty source file and copy a sample code from OpenNI sample folder to test code. I used NiSimpleViewer

5)Copy GL headers and gl libs from NiSimpleViewer folder to current project folder. Also copy Data folder from OpenNI folder.


6)Include directories
7)Linker dir


8)Additional dependancy

9)Release folder

10)Setting Env.Variable for getting glut32.dll


11)Change the Data folder path


12)Inside data folder
 13)Inside Libs
