Cant get the sample work

[leojg]

Hello! I am trying to get started with the leap motion sdk but I cant run the sample

I have tryed the python sdk and when I run python Sample.py I get this output:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\programacion\leap_motion\samples\Sample.py", line 9, in <module>
   import Leap, sys, thread, time
 File "C:\programacion\leap_motion\samples\Leap.py", line 34, in <module>
LeapPython = swig_import_helper()
 File "C:\programacion\leap_motion\samples\Leap.py", line 29, in swig_import_helper
import LeapPython
  ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

And I also tryed on java but I get no better results:

Error: Could not find or load main class Sample

Obviously I am doing something wrong on the setup

Usually these types of problems happen when the Leap Motion native library cannot be found. This library is a native dll which must be loaded by the programming-language specific libraries. We have a couple of articles to help get this setup:

If you still have problems, don't hesitate to ask further questions.

Hello, thanks for answering.

I have all the files in the same directory.

PD: Could it be that I am using an HP notebook with a built in sensor instead of a separate one?

Are you using the 64-bit libraries? If so, a recent change means that you have to copy a couple of Windows dlls, too. These are msvcp100.dll and msvcr100.dll from the x64 folder in the SDK (don't use the debug versions with the d suffix in the name for Python or Java).

If you are using the v2 Beta, then possibly. The release notes state that the current version doesn't yet support embedded controllers, but I don't know what the specific symptoms are.

Well It seems that the problem were the dlls. I copied them and it seems to work.

Thanks a lot!

PS: Sorry for taking too long to answer, I just had not time to try until now.

Error: Could not find or load main class Sample.

Hello, I have copy msvcp120.dll and msvcr120.dll to the project dirctory, but it is still not work!The log is

The python version is 3.6.1, and the SDK is 3.2.1. Is there any other reasons?

Thanks very much!
