Description of building OCCT with WOK and automake scripts is removed from documentation.
Use of genproj utility is described in pages on building with MSVC, Code::Blocks, and XCode projects.
New script genconf allows starting configuration GUI explicitly; dialog is slightly revised.
Script genproj.sh is renamed to genproj; permissions for scripts are corrected for Linux.
Script env.bat does not set anymore environment required for Products.
Method DownCast() is made template, to be available only when argument is actually a pointer or handle to a base class.
For compatibility with existing code, method DownCast() that can be used for the same type, derived, or unrelated class (i.e. where there is no actual down casting) is still available, its use shall cause "deprecated" compiler warning.
OCCT code is updated to remove meaningless DownCast()s; a few places where DownCast() was used with argument of unrelated type are corrected.
DRAW command QAHandleCast is removed (it was useful only during redesign of handles).
Copy constructor and assignment operator from handle of derived type is added in handle class.
They are enabled only if macro OCC_HANDLE_NOCASTS is defined, and operators of cast of handle to reference to handle to base type are disabled in that case.
Useless type casts to handle to base type are removed in GC and GCE2d classes.
Code returning reference to handle from function is corrected to return it either by value or as reference to handle of actual type.
Conversion of gp_Quaternion to and from intrinsic Tait-Bryan angles (including gp_YawPitchRoll) is fixed.
Before that fix the sequence of rotation axes was opposite to intended; e.g. gp_YawPitchRoll (equivalent to gp_Intrinsic_ZYX) actually was defining intrinsic rotations around X, then Y, then Z.
Now this is fixed, and rotations are made in correct order.
Comments to gp_EulerSequence enumeration are restored (lost due to CDL extraction).
Test bugs fclasses bug25574 is added to check correctness of Euler sequences, including cases from #25574 and #25946.
- m-dashes added.
- some other cases of incorrect dash use fixed
- unicode dashes were removed throughout the documentation.
- other comments taken into account.
- Update of mfc samples
- Adjustment of test cases
- Update of CSharp sample (lost button added)
- Corrected paths to data files in 07_Triangulation mfc sample
- Update of overview (Requirements section)
- Update of upgrade guide (changes in modeling algorithms)
- Package TPrsStd is moved into new toolkit TKVCAF. This is the only toolkit in OCAF that depends on visualization libraries.
- All persistent data stored in TPrsStd_AISPresentation attribute are moved to new attribute TDataXtd_Presentation, which is maintained automatically on the same label as TPrsStd_AISPresentation.
All parameters used by TPrsStd_AISPresentation are stored in corresponding TDataXtd_Presentation attribute.
- TPrsStd_AISPresentation is not stored in file any more; when OCAF document is loaded from a file, these attributes are created at all labels where TDataXtd_Presentation attribute is located, by TPrsStd_AISViewer::New().
- File src/StdResources/MigrationSheet.txt necessary for reading files written by previous versions of OCCT (lost in one of previous integrations) is restored and updated as necessary to handle this change (defines replacement of TPrsStd_AISPresentation by TDataXtd_Presentation). Environment variable CSF_MIGRATION_TYPES should be defined, pointing to this file.
- Packages BinMPrsStd and XmlMPrsStd are removed; their drivers are moved into BinMDataXtd and XmlMDataXtd respectively.
- Version numbers of BinOCAF and XmlOCAF formats are increased, new files cannot be read by previous versions of OCCT
- New tests added
- Adding new TKVCAF toolkit in sample projects
- Restore IsDisplayed(false) in TPrsStd_AISPresentation::Erase()
Restored possibility to have out-of-line implementation of DynamicCast() and STANDART_TYPE():
- Macro STANDARD_TYPE() now resolves to function get_type_descriptor() of the class
- Macro DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTI is replaced by two variants:
- DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTI_INLINE works as before, defining DynamicCast() and get_type_descriptor() as inline functions
- DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTIEXT declares DynamicCast() and get_type_descriptor() as exported
- Macro IMPLEMENT_STANDARD_RTTIEXT provides definition of DynamicCast() and get_type_descriptor() for a class
Upgrade script amended to replace DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTI by pair of DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTIEXT / IMPLEMENT_STANDARD_RTTIEXT if source file with the same name as header is found in the same folder, and by DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTI_INLINE if either source is not found or class is defined in the source (i.e. not in header)
Upgrade tool improved to recognize include statements with path prefix, like #include <occt/gp_Pnt.hxx>
Code corrected to eliminate warnings reported by upgrade tool.
Template of CXX file for testing upgrade tool added.
Documentation of upgrade procedure updated.
Classes Aspect_Clayer2d,OpenGl_GrahpicDriver_Layer, Visual3d_Layer, Visual3d_LayerItem, V3d_LayerMgr, V3d_LayerMgrPointer were deleted. Method OpenGl_GraphicDriver::TextSize() was moved to OpenGl_GraphicDriver.cxx.
Update V3d/FILES
Documentation updated.
A new script adm/upgrade.tcl defines a Tcl procedure occt_upgrade, to be used for upgrading code of OCCT and applications for changes introduced by OCCT 7.0.
Batch script upgrade.bat is provided for convenience.
File upgrade.dat contains data (lists of classes) required for some upgrade steps.
Details on upgrade procedure are put in dox/dev_guides/upgrade/upgrade.md.
OCCT code corrected to improve compatibility with code based on previous versions of OCCT:
- Added conversion operator of handle to bool, for use in conditional expressions.
- Forward declaration of argument class restored in macro DEFINE_STANDARD_HANDLE.
- Includes of used classes added in some headers to avoid problem of missing includes in dependent code
- Type cast operators to base curve and surface added in GC and GCE2d classes to reduce porting issues.
Added test for local reference to handle initialized by temporary handle to derived class.
WOK and CDL User Guides removed.
First version of upgrade manual (new developer guide) added, describing methods that can be used to convert data files written with old persistence, to formats supported by OCCT 7.0
