Removed usage of std::auto_ptr.
opencascade::std workarounds for VS2008 have been dropped, when possible.
OCCT_NO_RVALUE_REFERENCE workaround for VS2008 has been removed.
Test for handles is updated according to behavior expected from modern compilers.
Performance test perf ncollection A1 is updated (valid range extended) according to measurements made on Debian 8 with GCC 4.9 and on Ubuntu 16.04 with CLang 3.8 and 6.0 and GCC 4.7, 4.9, and 5.0.
NCollection_UtfString and NCollection_UtfIterator classes are refactored to use methods overloading instead of switches to dispatch implementation depending on character (Unicode code unit) size.
ICC-specific preprocessor directives are added to avoid warnings.
Unused local functions and variables, class methods, unreachable statements, and extra throw() declarations reported by ICC are removed.
Usage of "expl" for name of local variable is avoided as it conflicts with standard C function "expl" defined in math.h as preprocessor macro.
Non-standard (MS-specific) argument envp is removed in definition of main() function on Windows.
Functions _main_ and _WinMain_ are renamed to Draw_Main and Draw_WinMain, respectively, to avoid using names reserved in C++.
Doxygen warning is fixed in XDE User's Guide.
Possibility to build OCCT using Visual Studio 2008 (VC9) is restored.
For that:
- template functions and classes from namespace std or tr1 (for VC9) are imported to namespace opencascade which is then used instead of std in relevant places
- templates not provided by compiler (VC9) but required for OCCT are defined in this namespace (in Standard_Handle.hxx)
- methods implementing move semantics are excluded for VC9 compiler (which does not support && syntax)
- support of vc9 compiler is restored in build procedures and environment scripts
- check of type of the current class in macros DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTI* is refactored
VS 2008 is restored in the list of supported platforms on Overview / System Requirements.
For MSVC compiler (version 12 and above), Handle_Class types are defined as true classes (inheriting corresponding opencascade::handle<Class>) to allow using them in "public" statement of C++/CLI language, to make these classes recognizable by other C++/CLI libraries.
Code to test operations with Handle_ class is added to QAHandleOps test command
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).
Operator of cast to non-const reference is declared deprecated to produce compiler warning if used (usually implicitly).
OCCT code is updated to avoid that cast, occurring when function accepting non-const reference to handle is called with handle to derived type.
For that, local variable of argument type is passed instead, and down-cast is used to get it to desired type after the call.
A few occurrences of use of uninitialized variable are corrected.
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.
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.
Debug code enabled with OCCT_DEBUG macro corrected for compiling with new handles.
QANCollection_Handle.cxx simplified so as to avoid need of using /bigobj option when building by Visual Studio; templates of project files, CMake projects, and test perf fclasses handle corrected accordingly.
Script genproj corrected to recognize VTK and to build DRAWEXE as executable (rather than DLL).
Adaptations for compiling with GCC 4.7 and 4.8:
- Construction semantics is used for Handle objects being initialized by const Handle objects of derived type, to avoid overload resolution error in GCC 4.7.
- Missing includes added.
- Fixed bugs related to misuse of direct casts of handle.
- Eliminate CLang warnings on uninitialized and unused variables, functions, and expressions
Test commands for checking performance and functionality of OCCT handles and RTTI added.
New test case added for that: test perf fclasses handle.
Implementation of opencascade::handle improved to enable compile-time error if two handles of incompatible types are compared.
Comparison of handle to NULL is not possible any more; method IsNull() should be used instead.
Method LDOM_MemManager::Doc() is removed to avoid cyclic dependency of headers; constructor of LDOM_Document(LDOM_MemManager&) is used directly instead.
Inclusion of headers corrected for compilation after previous patch.
