Trouble with Tutorial in User Guide - get_latest_frame

I’ve been having trouble with the get_latest_frame method as shown in the Tutorial.

I’ve also had other problems with the tutorial that I had to hack away at for a while using this website, and it’d be great if the tutorial / setup instructions could include things like getting the dlls,OpenNI2 and Plugins folder, into the correct place.

I’ve checked the other related posts on here about this, but I’m just not getting it to work.

My code-

#include <astra/astra.hpp>

#include <cstdio>
#include <iostream>

int main(int argc, char** argv) {

	astra::initialize();

	astra::StreamSet streamSet;
	astra::StreamReader reader = streamSet.create_reader();

	reader.stream<astra::DepthStream>().start();

	astra::Frame frame = reader.get_latest_frame();
	const auto depthFrame = frame.get<astra::DepthFrame>();

	const int frameIndex = depthFrame.frame_index();
	const short pixelVal = depthFrame.data()[0];

	std::cout 
		<< std::endl
		<< "Depth frameIndex: " << frameIndex
		<< " pixelValue: " << pixelVal
		<< std::endl
		<< std::endl;
        astra::terminate();

	std::cout << "hit enter to exit program" << std::endl;
	std::cin.get();

	return 0;
}

What things I’ve done/tried so far-

  • Including libraries, linking to .h files, etc, as told to in the User Guide
  • Adding in all the dlls from the Samples to my target directory
  • Adding in the OpenNI2 and Plugins folders, from the OpenNI2 zip file, to my target directory
  • Also including .h files and libraries from OpenNI2 directly

The program gets stuck on the get_latest_frame() line. This is the log file with Debug Level-

I am having the same problem. Did you manage to solve it?
