SpinnakerC on Linux

[tanrbobanr]

Are there any plans to add Linux compatibility for the SpinnakerC device adapter? The current documentation says it is only compatible on Windows.

Turns out SpinnakerCamera builds and functions correctly on Linux (at least on 5.15.0-190-generic) - the documentation is probably out of date.

Thanks for the issue. I'm going to reopen this because SpinnakerC, which is meant to be a replacement for SpinnakerCamera, indeed does not build on Linux yet.

SpinnakerCamera is a good alternative for now, because (since you build it yourself) it does not have the main shortcoming it has on Windows (i.e., requiring an exact, and not up-to-date, version of Spinnaker SDK).
