Added support of Visual Studio 2017 (15) in CMake build procedure.
CMake 3.7.2 or above is required to generate projects for VS 2017.
Since version of compiler and toolset remained at 14 (now they are 14.1), and they use the same run-time, the same third-party products as for VS 2015 (14) can be used.
Also the name of the folder for installation of OCCT binaries in OCCT-standard layout (default on Windows) remains "vc14".
Support of Visual Studio 2017 is added in genproj generator and relevant environment, with format specifier "vc141".
The syntax of the genproj command is revised:
- UWP is considered as separate platform ("uwp" alternative to "wnt"), not part of IDE specification
- Option "IDE" is renamed to "Format"
- Obsolete name of local variable "aWokStation" is replaced by equivalent "theFormat"
In environment scripts, additional variables are defined (derived from VCVER, see adm/vcver.bat):
- VCLIB defines name of the subdirectory specific to VS version; it is the same as VCVER except that for VCVER=vc141 VCLIB=vc14 and for VCVER=141-uwp VCLIB=vc14-uwp
- VCFMT is VCVER without optional suffix "-uwp"
- VCPROP is "NativeDesktop" for normal builds or "Universal" for UWP builds
Command genconf is amended to:
- Detect presence of VS 2017 (separately for desktop and UWP)
- Use only two first digits after "vc" in format specification for search of third-party libs
- Have more space in user interface for VS specification
All supported variants of VCVER variable are documented in dev guides / buiding / msvc
Possibility to customize layout of installation of OCCT is introduced by:
- variable INSTALL_DIR_LAYOUT - select one of the two predefined layouts: either Windows (classic OCCT layout) or Unix (Linux standard)
- variables INSTALL_DIR_* (BIN, LIB, INCLUDE, RESOURCE, DOC, TESTS, SCRIPT, SAMPLES, DATA) - specify locations of relevant components
- variable INSTALL_DIR_WITH_VERSION (bool) - specifies whether full version of OCCT should be used in paths in Unix layout
Files LICENSE_LGPL_21.txt and OCCT_LGPL_EXCEPTION.txt are always installed.
Environment is extended to support non-default layouts.
For that, environment variables "CSF_OCCT*Path" are defined, corresponding to CMake variables INSTALL_DIR_* described above.
Visual Studio environment, DRAW, tests, samples are amended to use these variables instead of (or as alternative to) CASROOT.
Settings of Products-specific vars are removed from environment scripts.
File genconf.bat was corrected to avoid error message for the case when path to TCL contains spaces.
Product name in rc files changed to "Open CASCADE Technology".
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.
