That’s what I’ve been doing.  I cd into the src directory, replace the mousedriver.cpp with risenparadigm’s, then I:

g++ mousedriver.cpp

and it’s returning errors.

So… I think I have to use Microsoft Visual C++ on this then yes?

Are you compiling with Visual Studio? The easiest would be to just open the solution for the mousedriver.

Yeah… I just figured that out, when i looked around and saw the VCPROJ files.  That wasn’t my first choice for a c++ compiler (gcc was) so I guess I’ll just do that.

When I open the project in Visual C++ and compile, it “does” compile, making an exe.  However, upon running the exe, it crashes.
Here are the output from my Visual C++ IDE:

It also displays a message box when the EXE is run, I took a screenshot and included it as an attachment.  I installed OpenCV, so I don’t know what the problem is.

OK, I’ve downloaded about half a gigabyte of those run times and prerequisites and stuff, installed them to the best of my knowledge, and it still gives me the error.  I’m not familiar at all with the Microsoft version of c++ or their IDE or the prerequisite system you have, so if one of you could compile the project associated with “MultiMouseV0.2_trackpad.exe” such that it runs silently with no visible display, no CMD window, and no “mywindow” or anything (silent run), it might make up for the eight hours I’ve already wasted trying to get it to work correctly; I thought it would be an easy 5-minute fix of simply installing the runtimes, editing the source, and compiling, but no, it is not.  That and it would save me the frustration of randomly downloading and installing files, hitting the build button 50 bajillion times, and seeing the same error again and again.  I don’t really care if it happens right away, but please at least consider it.

Sorry for your trouble. You have encountered one of the reasons why so many people have shifted over to Codeblocks. I personally started working on Xcode myself. I still have the VS environment though. Most people using this software already have the touchlib environment up and running, so it’s generally not an issue. I won’t get a chance to compile you a version until sometime next week. Maybe someone else might be willing to lend a hand if you wanted it sooner.

Not a problem.  Time isn’t an issue (i.e. not an immediate concern).  But I appreciate your help if you can give it.

Hello mitchms,

As promised, here is the silent version you requested. Just replace the old exe with this one.

I believe it will still bring up camera settings. That has to be disabled through the touchlib config, but my windows are no longer visible.

Cheers!

You sir, are the best.  Many thanks for your help, and have a nice day!

mtmouse so cool!!
