Quick Start Guide: eSDK Pro Code Examples

After installing eSDK Pro, validate that you can build and run the server_connect example and detect your camera connection in code.

This Quick Start Guide covers eCapture Pro and eSDK Pro. For classic eSDK, see Getting Started with the eSDK.

Important: Although both are installed, do not run eSDK Pro and eCapture Pro at the same time on the same server.

Before you begin

Check the additional requirements for building and running eSDK Pro code in eSDK Pro System Requirements.

Procedure 1: Locate the eSDK Pro examples

Locate the installed eSDK Pro examples on your system.

Default installation paths:

• Windows: C:\Program Files\EVT\eCapturePro\eSdkPro\examples
• Linux: /opt/EVT/eCapturePro/eSdkPro/examples

Verify success: You can locate the server_connect example directory under the examples path.

Procedure 2: Build and run the server_connect example

Build and run the recommended first eSDK Pro example.

1. Open the server_connect example directory.
2. Follow the README.txt in that directory to build and run the example.

Verify success: server_connect runs. It connects to a server and prints information about all connected cameras.
