@echo night I am pretty sure I did it correctly

[echo night]

So what you did

I'm pretty sure you didn't do it correctly

Just in case to make sure your browser didn't hide any information to you

[vast flint]

Yeah I did that but I installed tesseract but I got confused abt when it said library and headers

But tesseract works fine when I run in cmd

[echo night]

Then must be environment issue
Restart your terminals and try again

[vast flint]

I did all I restarted my pc and everything

Have u tried it?

[echo night]

It works all fine to me

I'm not using windows tho

[vast flint]

Well that’s not windows

Yeah

I think it’s a windows problem idk

Is there a way to use a docker as a package?

[echo night]

Are you sure it works fine on cmd?

[vast flint]

Yes

[echo night]

then where does it don't work

[vast flint]

Tesseract works but gosseract does not

[echo night]

I still keep my opinion

[vast flint]

??

[echo night]

https://github.com/otiai10/gosseract/blob/main/Dockerfile

Check what you need here

Makesure you installed all packages that start with the command RUN apt-get install

[vast flint]

BREHJHHHH

lol sorry

but how do u install leptonica on windows

I did that

but I still get this error:

[echo night]

Makesure you are using the correct link path, search how does gcc work

[vast flint]

@echo night

are you online

I figured 1 thing out

I figured that it is something to do with linking

cuz even in a test.c file

[echo night]

yeah so pass the correct -L flag

or set the env

I forgot what's the env called

[vast flint]

@echo night what do you mean by correct -L flag?

could u guide me through?

[echo night]

search how does gcc work

[vast flint]

when do I add that?

[echo night]

I recommend you setup the environment variable, so you don't need to pass that each time

[vast flint]

I did but I removed it now

[echo night]

https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Environment-Variables.html

I gtg now

[vast flint]

aww man cyaa

[vast flint]

THIS IS SOOOO STUPIODDDDDDD

[echo night]

ok I was wrong, you should use -I not -L

So it should be the INCLUDE_PATH not LIBRARY*

[vast flint]

@echo night what would I do if I do not run it in c but I want to run it in golang?

it works on normal c

[echo night]

go have flag -ldflags

if you set the variable, you will see you need do nothing when using go

[vast flint]

alr ima try then thankksssss

@echo night -Idflags or -Ldflags?

i or L

[echo night]

Ll

[vast flint]

ok

go run main.go -ldflags C:\Users\THUND3RD3V\Desktop\vcpkg\packages\leptonica_x64-windows\include

that command?

[echo night]

no

what flag you passed to gcc

[vast flint]

-I C:\Users\THUND3RD3V\Desktop\vcpkg\packages\leptonica_x64-windows\include

[echo night]

wrap them in "" and pass to ldflags

[vast flint]

oh ok

go run main.go -ldflags "-I C:\Users\THUND3RD3V\Desktop\vcpkg\packages\leptonica_x64-windows\include"

like that?

it still gives error

@echo night

[echo night]

Read the doc

go help run

[vast flint]

I read maybe I have to do -gccflags

[vast flint]

@echo night I really need help I read it I don't understand

[echo night]

Read the first line

[vast flint]

I will just change the code ig

for tessbridge

[vast flint]

@chilly moat I managed to get that problem fixed another way

buttttt

new error:
#include <tesseract/version.h>

and I installed tesseract

[chilly moat]

wrong ping

[vast flint]

oh yeah sorry

[chilly moat]

np

[vast flint]

@echo night

[vast flint]

thx

[echo night]

always install_path issue

check your install path

[vast flint]

could we get on a call?

I used vcpkg

[echo night]

no matter what you using, your install_path doesn't contains the tesseract's include folder

[echo night]

what call?

[vast flint]

vc

https://discord.gg/HtUHbX6Y

ok no mic

[echo night]

I don't use mic, chat here

[vast flint]

alr

[echo night]

@vast flint Forgot to tell, if you want use vs complier, set these go env

CC=<c complier-path / name>
CXX=<c++ complier-path / name>

[vast flint]
