== Windows Build Tools and Scripts ==
|
|
|
|
This folder contains build tools and script for automatic building and deployment of IfcOpenShell's
|
|
(IFCOS) dependencies.
|
|
|
|
As a general guideline, .cmd files are non-standalone batch files that need to be run from command
|
|
prompt or from other batch file and/or Visual Studio environment variables set and .bat files are
|
|
standalone batch files that can be run from File Explorer too.
|
|
|
|
|
|
== Usage Instructions ==
|
|
|
|
Execute build-deps.cmd to fetch, build and install the dependencies. The batch file will print
|
|
requirements for a successful execution. The script allows a few user-configurable build options
|
|
which are listed in the usage instructions. Either edit the script file or set these values before
|
|
running the script.
|
|
|
|
build-deps.cmd expects a CMake generator as %1 and a build configuration type as %2. If the parameters
|
|
are not provided, the default values are used ("Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" and RelWithDebInfo respectively).
|
|
A build type (Build/Rebuild/Clean) can be provided as %3, if wanted (defaults to Build). See vs-cfg.cmd
|
|
if you want to change the defaults. The batch file will create deps\ and deps-vs<VERSION>-<ARCHITECTURE>-installed\
|
|
directories to the project root. Note that currently only libraries for one build configuration type
|
|
can be installed at a time, so if wanting to switch between release and debug builds, run the build-deps.cmd
|
|
again with the appropriate build type as %2.
|
|
|
|
After the dependencies are build, execute run-cmake.bat. The batch file expects a CMake generator as
|
|
%1, or alternatively if more parameters are provided, %* is passed for the CMake inkovation. If no %1
|
|
is provided, the same default value as above is used. This batch script will create a folder of form
|
|
build-vs<VERSION>-<ARCHITECTURE> which will contain the solution and project files for Visual Studio.
|
|
|
|
All of the dependencies are build as static libraries against the static run-time allowing the developer
|
|
to effortlessly deploy standalone binaries.
|
|
|
|
You can now build the project using the IfcOpenShell.sln file in the build folder. Build the INSTALL
|
|
project if wanted. The project will installed to installed-vs<VERSION>-<ARCHITECTURE> folder in the
|
|
project's root folder and the required IfcOpenShell-Python parts are deployed to the Python's Lib
|
|
folder.
