* Preliminary MSYS2 + MinGW build scripts and instructions. * CMakeLists.txt: MinGW tweaks, enforce C++03, suppress warnings for now. * Fix some GCC warnings. * Fix unused parameter warnings coming from Ifc*.h. * Fix warning regarding unreachable code (++jt) on MSVC. * Add IfcParse_EXPORT for IfcInvalidTokenException * Fix potentially uninitialized pointer variables. * Note about OpenCASCADE cyclic dependencies fix. * GCC warning fix: don't generate 'current_enum' variable that is only set and not used for anything ever * Work around -Wmaybe-uninitialized warnings about boost::optional constructs. Also prevent passing of negative values for --bounds. * Remove unused variable. * CMakeLists.txt: ENABLE_BUILD_OPTIMIZATIONS for GCC (simply enforce -03)

Windows Build Tools and Scripts
|
|
===============================
|
|
This folder contains build tools and script for automatic building and deployment of IfcOpenShell (IFCOS)
|
|
and its dependencies.
|
|
|
|
As a general guideline, `.cmd` files are non-standalone batch files that need to be run from command prompt or from
|
|
another batch file, and/or while the Visual Studio environment variables set, and `.bat` files are standalone batch
|
|
files that can also be invoked e.g. by double-clicking in the File Explorer. `.sh` files are for MSYS2 + MinGW compilation.
|
|
|
|
Usage Instructions
|
|
------------------
|
|
### MSYS2 + MinGW
|
|
|
|
Building using MSYS2 + MinGW is very similar to using the Visual Studio batch files, but instead the shell scripts
|
|
are used. Note that the MSYS2 + MinGW support is currently a bit experimental. It is advised to check out the contents
|
|
of the shell scripts before using them. Note that contrary to Visual Studio, with MinGW all of the dependencies are not
|
|
built or used as static libaries. Currently Release build is used for all libraries.
|
|
|
|
### Visual Studio
|
|
Execute `build-deps.cmd` to fetch, build and install the dependencies. The batch file will print the 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 (`RelWithDebInfo`, `Release`,
|
|
`MinSizeRel`, or `Debug`, defaults to `RelWithDebInfo`) as `%2`. If the generator is not provided, the generator is
|
|
deduced from the Visual Studio environment variables. User-friendly VS generator shorthands are supported, e.g.
|
|
`vs2013-x86` or `vs2015-x64`, and these are converted to the appropriate CMake ones by the scripts. A build type
|
|
(`Build`, `Rebuild`, or `Clean`, defaults to `Build`) can be provided as `%3`. See `vs-cfg.cmd` if you wish to change
|
|
the defaults. The batch file will create `deps\` and `deps-vs<VERSION>-<ARCHITECTURE>-installed\` directories to the
|
|
project root. Debug and release builds of the depedencies can co-exist by simply running
|
|
```
|
|
> build-deps.cmd <GENERATOR> Debug
|
|
> build-deps.cmd <GENERATOR> <Release|RelWithDebInfo|MinSizeRel>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After the dependencies are build, execute `run-cmake.bat`. The batch file expects a CMake generator as `%1` and the
|
|
rest of possible parameters are passed as is. If a generator is not provided, the generator is read from the
|
|
BuildDepsCache file, or tried to be deduced from the location of `cl.exe`. If passing build options for the script,
|
|
the generator must be always passed as the first option:
|
|
```
|
|
> run-cmake.bat vs2015-x64 -DUSE_IFC4=1 -DBUILD_IFCPYTHON=0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**If you wish to use any library from a custom location, modify the paths in `run-cmake.bat` accordingly**. The batch
|
|
script will create a folder of form `build-vs<VERSION>-<ARCHITECTURE>\` which will contain the solution and project
|
|
files for Visual Studio.
|
|
|
|
Note that building IfcOpenShell as 64-bit is recommended as many of real life IFC files has been observed to take
|
|
easily more than 2 GBs of RAM while converting.
|
|
|
|
After this, one can build the project using the `IfcOpenShell.sln` file in the build folder. Build the `INSTALL` project
|
|
if wanted. Convenience batch files `build-ifcopenshell.bat` and `install-ifcopenshell.bat` can also be used. The batch
|
|
files expect `%1` and `%2` in same fashion as above and possible extra parameters are passed for the `MSBuild` call.
|
|
`run-cmake.bat`, `build-ifcopenshell.bat`, and `install-ifcopenshell.bat` can also be directly invoked from Filer Explorer
|
|
or regular Command Prompt if BuildDepsCache file exists (the last modified version is used). Running the scripts without extra
|
|
parameters reads the build options from an existing CMakeCache.txt.
|
|
|
|
The project will be installed to `installed-vs<VERSION>-<ARCHITECTURE>\` folder in the project's root folder and the
|
|
required IfcOpenShell-Python parts are deployed to the `<PYTHONHOME>\Lib\site-packages\` folder. The 3ds Max plug-in,
|
|
`IfcMax.dli`, needs to be copied manually to the 3ds Max's `plugins` folder.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** Currently all of the dependencies are build as static libraries against the static run-time allowing the
|
|
developer to effortlessly deploy standalone IFCOS executables.
|
|
|
|
Using an already existing Python installation
|
|
---------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Let's say you have already installed 64-bit Python 3.5.1 to `C:\Python3`.
|
|
Before building the dependencies, disable the script from installing Python:
|
|
```
|
|
> set IFCOS_INSTALL_PYTHON=FALSE
|
|
> buid-deps.cmd
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After building the dependencies, append Python version and installation directory information to the BuildDepsCache file
|
|
in `IfcOpenShell\win`:
|
|
```
|
|
> echo PY_VER_MAJOR_MINOR=35>> BuildDepsCache-x64.txt
|
|
> echo PYTHONHOME=C:\Python3>> BuildDepsCache-x64.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After this you should be able to run `run-cmake.bat` normally. If using 32-bit Python, the name of the file must be
|
|
`BuildDepsCache-x86.txt`.
