Locations PCLConfig.cmake and pcl-config.cmake files for PCL library

Question

I installed PCL using the following commands.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:v-launchpad-jochen-sprickerhof-de/pcl
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libpcl-a         


        

Answer 1

you should specify the PCL dir for the CMake to find it.

In a terminal run :

$ locate PCLConfig.cmake

Then, add the found folder (without the filename) to your CMakeLists like the following :

set(PCL_DIR "/found/folder/")
#change X.x to whatever version yo installed

Sidenote : /usr/share/pcl-x.x is the usual path to your pcl folder.
