VRPN

This page is a great starting point to learn about VRPN.
http://www.vrgeeks.org/vrpn/tutorial---use-vrpn#TOC-Adding-Buttons-and-Trackers


Of course, this page is the official VRPN page.

Open the  vrpn.sln, and compile vrpn_server (for server side), and vrpn_print_devices (for client side).
Before running, copy vrpn.cfg to the  vrpn_server directory, and edit it (uncomment Mouse0 part).
Then, run the server first, and then client. Move your mouse, and you will get results.

If you happen to confront the following message, then you didn't uncomment devices yet.
VRPN Error
 (10) from Tracker0: No response from server for >= 10 seconds
VRPN Error
 (10) from Mouse0: No response from server for >= 10 seconds


Please note
.\VRPN\vrpn_07_28\server_src\vrpn.cfg

client_and_server.C could a good staring point to understand how to implement server/client.
and this page. (http://www.cs.unc.edu/Research/vrpn/Servers.html)

Create a new project, and add the file client_and_server.cpp, and edit a bit.
#include "./../../vrpn_Tracker.h"
and add vrpn.lib (which was at C:\Program Files (x86)\vrpn_07_28\pc_win32\Debug)
