This is the official repository for the sources and the binaries of MeshLab.
MeshLab is an open source, portable, and extensible system for the processing and editing of unstructured large 3D triangular meshes. The source is released under the GPL license.
The system is aimed to help the processing of the typical not-so-small unstructured models arising in 3D scanning, providing a set of tools for editing, cleaning, healing, inspecting, rendering and converting this kind of meshes.
MeshLab is an open source, portable, and extensible system for the processing and editing of unstructured large 3D triangular meshes. The source is released under the GPL license. The system is aimed to help the processing of the typical not-so-small unstructured models arising in 3D scanning, providing a set of tools for editing, cleaning, healing, inspecting, rendering and converting this kind of meshes. These tools include MeshLab proper, a versatile program with a graphical user interface, and [meshlabserver](https://github.com/cnr-isti-vclab/meshlab/blob/master/src/meshlabserver/meshlabserver.txt), a program that can perform mesh processing tasks in batch mode, without a GUI.
MeshLab is mostly based on the open source C++ mesh processing library [VCGlib](http://www.vcglib.net) developed at the [Visual Computing Lab](http://vcg.isti.cnr.it) of [ISTI - CNR](http://www.isti.cnr.it) for all the core mesh processing tasks, and it is available for Windows, MacOSX, and Linux.
Compiling instructions can be found in the [src](https://github.com/cnr-isti-vclab/meshlab/tree/master/src) folder or simply looking at the continous integration setup on [Github Actions](https://github.com/cnr-isti-vclab/meshlab/actions), [travis](https://travis-ci.org/cnr-isti-vclab/meshlab/builds) and [appveyor](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/cignoni/meshlab/history).

Meshlab Linux Howto
Requirements:
Qt 4.x.x
lib3ds (lib3ds.sf.net)
GLEW (glew.sf.net)
VCG (vcg.sf.net)
To compile meshlab on linux you need the development packages of the above libreries. Qt, lib3ds and glew are probably packaged with your distribution. On Debian for example you must install them with
apt-get install libglew-dev libqt4-dev lib3ds-dev
VCG library (from vcg.sf.net) instead is distributed only in source form . In order to download this library you can follow SourceForge CVS instructions. For example :
mario@ath64:~/src$ cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@vcg.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/vcg login
Logging in to :pserver:anonymous@vcg.cvs.sourceforge.net:2401/cvsroot/vcg
CVS password: [empty password]
mario@ath64:~/src$ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@vcg.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/vcg co -P vcg
cvs checkout: Updating vcg
cvs checkout: Updating vcg/apps
cvs checkout: Updating vcg/apps/borland
U vcg/apps/borland/metro.bpf
...
[other files]
...
Now you have the VCG library source files downloaded in local (in this example ~/src/vcg), however
the VCG directory must be at the same level of meshlab directory and named "sf". This can be a symbolic link, as
in this case :
mario@ath64:~/src$ ls -l sf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 mario mario 3 2005-10-19 19:59 sf -> vcg
Alternatively you can rename vcg directory to sf.
Now you can download meshlab either from CVS or from sources (the instructions to get sources from CVS are similar to VCG ones). Place meshlab sources at the same level of "sf" directory, for example:
mario@ath64:~/src$ ls -l -d meshlab sf
drwx------ 7 mario mario 200 2005-12-22 15:02 meshlab
lrwxrwxrwx 1 mario mario 3 2005-10-19 19:59 sf -> vcg
- Compilation, Plugins
First you need to compile plugins, so switch to meshlab/src/meshlabplugins directory:
mario@ath64:~/src/meshlab/src$ cd meshlabplugins/
mario@ath64:~/src/meshlab/src/meshlabplugins$ ls
CVS meshdecorate meshio meshrender
dummy meshcolorize meshfilter meshlabplugins.pro
the run qmake to create the Makefile
mario@ath64:~/src/meshlab/src/meshlabplugins$ ls
CVS Makefile meshdecorate meshio meshrender
dummy meshcolorize meshfilter meshlabplugins.pro
now run make to build the plugins in ../meshlab/plugins directory
(in this example ~/src/meshlab/src/meshlab/plugins)
When the compilation process finishes you should have the following files in ../meshlab/plugins
libmeshfilter.so
libmeshcolorize.so
libmeshio.so
libmeshdecorate.so
libmeshrender.so
- Compilation, Meshlab
After compiling plugins, compile the main program (stored in directory ~/src/meshlab/src/meshlab in this example):
mario@ath64:~/src/meshlab/src/meshlab$ qmake
mario@ath64:~/src/meshlab/src/meshlab$ make
Now you should have an executable file named meshlab in the current directory. Let's start it:
mario@ath64:~/src/meshlab/src/meshlab$ ./meshlab
