Is there anything else I should do before installing pcl in vcpkg? The pcl installation completed without an error. Built part of the library seems to be working fine.

You mean VTK visualization? Its deactiavted until upstream can be built with VTK 9.0

[Qiuchi0918]

Yes the VTK visualization. I thought I must have misconfigured something because the all-in-one build of the same version works just fine. And the console message of something about vtk will be removed in a future version does pop up when 3d viewer is used. Anyway thank you for your help, maybe I should just stick with the all-in-one for now.

When will it be enabled again?

It's deactivated until upstream can be built with VTK 9.0

So is there a way to use the visualiser with an older version or something? Or is it literally not possible at all to use the visualiser with VCPKG PCL

@TaylorDale if i understand the vcpkg way correctly:

• you do a git log at ports/pcl
• you identify the commit which broke the visualization. here it is the upgrade of VTK8 to VTK9 : c7cd618
• you checkout one commit before: git checkout c7cd618^
• clean the whole thing (you loose all changes): git clean -dfx
• run the bootstrap
• rebuild it all : vcpkg install pcl
