irrlicht collada loader warning: wrong tag usage found: library controllers

Question

I am trying to draw a tower in Irrlicht. So far, all of the help and tutorials I have found are for animated objects. I have done several of the tutorials(1,2,4,5,9,12) with no trouble, but when I try drawing a model that did not come with Irrlicht, I get:

"collada loader warning: wrong tag usage found: library controllers"

I am using Irrlicht 1.8 and gcc 4.7.1.

I am new to making things that are not console applications so any help or advice is appreciated.

Answer 1

I had the same problem. I opened the model file (created with Blender) in a text editor and found this empty XML tag:

  <library_controllers/>

Deleting it fixed the warning.

I checked the same file with COLLADA Coherency Test and it showed a similar error, leading me to think this is a problem with the way Blender exports .dae files.
