PHYSX

Containerized enviroment for running and building projects using Nvidia PhysX.

Getting started

Requierments

• Docker

• NVIDIA PhysX SDK 4.1

Setting up docker image and container

Dockerfile, build and run scripts can be downloaded from here

Change the mount location in the run.sh script to the location where you have downloaded the nvidia physx repository

Building PhysX

After clonning NVIDIA PhysX SDK 4.1 repository, requirements for building PhysX can be found here. All these requirements are already included in the dockerfile provided

To build snippets examples -

1. cd PhysX/physx/ && chmod +x generate_projects.sh && ./generate_projects.sh
2. cd compiler/linux-release/ && make -j8

Running nvidia physx sample snippets

• ./runsnippets.sh

Common fixes (runnning in docker)

1. Update pyton to python3 in PhysX/physx/generate_projects.sh
2. Set clang version in PhysX/physx/buildtools/cmake_generate_projects.py if throws errors
3. Add flags [-Wno-suggest-destructor-override -Wno-suggest-override -Wno-reserved-identifier -Wno-unused-but-set-variable -Wno-dtor-name] to PhysX/physx/source/compiler/cmake/linux/CMakeLists.txt if throws errors.
