New repository for Inspector: https://github.com/Open-Cascade-SAS/Inspector
Documentation and all build process are fully migrated.
"tools" folder keep to share information for some time.
Keep building inspector as before to keep control of API changes via GitHub actions.
Updated VCPKG workflow to follow the type of linking with the triplet.
Removed symbolic linker flag. As a result downgrade of performance.
The symbolic flag has high risk of instability, better to disable.
New maintaining schema will be applied:
maintenance stable release on top of minor (3 times per year).
with binary compatible changes
name - 7.9.1, 7.9.2, 7.9.3
development fully-tested release based on master (every 5+- weeks)
no binary compatible changes
the latest features available the same as in master
name - 8.0.0.rc1, 8.0.0.rc2, 8.0.0.rc3,...
the weekly branch IR still will be weekly and usually type of release will be "dev"
of the next minor release. In current case "8.0.0".
Add GitHub Actions for TInspector build and clang-format check
Reorganize QT search to work with native Linux packages
Reorganize build-and-test workflow to have actions
Refactor header file extensions from .hxx to .pxx and update include statements.
Enable handling by IDE gxx and pxx extensions as a cpp header files.
Introduce Standard_HIDDEN to hide symbols
The basic implementation of VCPKG as a beta version.
By default will be disabled.
To enable needs to remove CMake cache and reconfigure with BUILD_USE_VCPKG flag to ON.
The current version do not support whole list of 3rd-party, only limited.
and VCPKG_ROOT reachable as a CMake or env variable
Add vcpkg support for FFmpeg and Jemalloc, including configuration files and patches.
Refactor file extension filters in CMake and QMake configurations.
Gxx extension used as a "old-way-template" to repeat .cxx content.
Marking gxx as a source file instead of header.
Moving to absolute path for the gxx integrations.
Refactor precompiled headers and improve Windows compatibility.
Extend TKernel, TKMath and TKBRep pch with more usage headers.
Implement PCH for TKDEIGES, TKDESTEP, TKMesh, and TKXSBase.
Removed cotire PCH
Integrated native PCH by CMake with the same BUILD_USE_PCH flag
Added new option to avoid extra files in 'build/include' folder and replace it by symlink
Symlink creates link to the origin file, it has some benefits from debug and build side.
The CMake parameter for symlink is 'BUILD_INCLUDE_SYMLINK'
The absence of target_link_libraries calls for static libraries caused CMake to fail
in modeling the link dependencies correctly.
This fix ensures that CMake correctly exports the dependencies in OpenCASCADEConfig.cmake and
resolves downstream linking errors for projects that link against static OpenCASCADE libraries.
