Windows: installation from binaries

We distribute binary packages for YARP, iCub and all the dependencies required to compile them. The latest releases of iCub and YARP are available for download. These packages also include all dependencies pre-compiled for specific compilers and take care of setting the environment appropriately (including the PATH).

Instructions

• Download and execute the Robotology installer available from Downloads. Pick up the binaries containing the full install. When prompted with the dialog below, do not change the destination directory as the archive still contains a few packages that are not fully relocatable.

• Keep the following checkbox ticked if you want the installer to update the environment variables.

Getting MS C++ Redistributable

• Unless you already have the Microsoft Visual Studio installed on your machine, make sure that you have at least the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019 available. In particular, pick up the 64-bits version.
