How to use Or-Tools in C++ project

[janason]

I want to use Or-Tools in C++ project at windows platform, but how to build it and reference in my project. The project is very simple.

Hello. 

I assume you have created the or-tools repository, run make third_party and make all as indicated in the getting started.

https://code.google.com/p/or-tools/wiki/AGettingStarted

Then create a visual studio project. 

  - specify architecture to be /MD

  - add 2 include files directory: <or-tools>\src and <or-tools>\dependencies\install\include

  - in the linking part, add all libraries in <or-tools>\lib and <or-tools>\dependencies\lib (and below).

Hopefully, the order is not important (I am not sure of that).

I hope this helps.

Thanks

Let me be more precise:

in <or-tools>/lib, you need to link with:

routing.lib constraint_solver.lib linear_solver.lib shortestpaths.lib graph.lib algorithms.lib util.lib base.lib

in the dependencies, link with:

glpk.lib (if installed), libgflags.lib libprotobuf.lib zlib.lib coin\libCbcSolver.lib coin\libCbc.lib coin\libCgl.lib coin\libOsiCbc.lib coin\libOsiClp.lib coin\libOsi.lib coin\libClp.lib coin\libCoinUtils.lib

That should be enough.

Thanks
