Question by DerrickLau · Apr 06, 2017 at 11:50 PM · unity 5kinect

Unity3D will not load a VisualGestureBuilderDatabase file.

I have created a Visual Gesture Builder database file TestGestures4.gdb and put it in my Assets folder, in a subfolder named StreamingAssets.

I have code to load this database into my game:

             _gestureDatabase = VisualGestureBuilderDatabase.Create(Application.streamingAssetsPath + @"/" + GestureDatabaseFile);
 

However, when I run my game, and step through the debugger to this point:

 namespace Microsoft.Kinect.VisualGestureBuilder
 {
     public sealed partial class VisualGestureBuilderDatabase
     {
         [RootSystem.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport(
             "KinectVisualGestureBuilderUnityAddin",
             EntryPoint = "Microsoft_Kinect_VisualGestureBuilder_VisualGestureBuilderDatabase_ctor",
             CallingConvention = RootSystem.Runtime.InteropServices.CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
         private static extern RootSystem.IntPtr Microsoft_Kinect_VisualGestureBuilder_VisualGestureBuilderDatabase_ctor([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)]string path);
         public static VisualGestureBuilderDatabase Create(string path)
         {
             RootSystem.IntPtr objectPointer = Microsoft_Kinect_VisualGestureBuilder_VisualGestureBuilderDatabase_ctor(path);
             Helper.ExceptionHelper.CheckLastError();
             if (objectPointer == RootSystem.IntPtr.Zero)
             {
                 return null;
             }
 
             return Helper.NativeObjectCache.CreateOrGetObject<Microsoft.Kinect.VisualGestureBuilder.VisualGestureBuilderDatabase>(
                 objectPointer, n => new Microsoft.Kinect.VisualGestureBuilder.VisualGestureBuilderDatabase(n));
         }
     }
 

I am always returned a NULL pointer.

Here is what the debugger shows as the path my TestGestures4.gdb file is located:

What am I doing wrong here?

I just noticed above that the directory path used forward slashes '/' ins$$anonymous$$d of backslashes '\'. Since backslashes are traditional to Windows, I tried this:

             string gestureDatabasePath = Path.Combine(Application.strea$$anonymous$$gAssetsPath, GestureDatabaseFile);
             gestureDatabasePath = gestureDatabasePath.Replace(@"/", @"\");
             _gestureDatabase = VisualGestureBuilderDatabase.Create(gestureDatabasePath);
 

Still no luck. Still null pointer returned to _gestureDatabase from the Create() call.

Solved it. I spelt the name of my visual gesture builder database file wrong:

I put "TestGestures4.gdb".

It should be:

TestGestures4.gbd
