regarding the zlib-hdf5-libmed problem:
maybe this line has somehow involved: https://github.com/conda-forge/hdf5-fee ... bld.bat#L5

ps.: but I like how easy it is with conda to patch a package. Simple download the feedstock, try to solve a problem, if it succeed upload the package and create a PR. This way no time is lost. Simple use the manual build while waiting for the PR to be merged... Once the PR is merged one can simple delete the uploaded build.

after a hard time with pyside, FreeCAD now starts building, but fails with a linking error:

Code: Select all

I haven't got to compiling yet, but I did get the configuration to work with the following changes.

1. Specify the generator with -G "%CMAKE_GENERATOR%" This solves the CMAKE_SIZEOF_VOID_P problem.
2. Change FindCoin3d.cmake to look for coin4. (how did you get it to find coin?)
3. Remove netgen from the netgen include path (I see you have done this too)
3. Remove backslashes from PySideConfig-python3.5.cmake. I haven't started compiling, so I did't know the other changes you made were necessary.

I see you have switched to Ninja now, so I guess you don't have the CMAKE_SIZEOF_VOID_P problem either.

I'll be able to look into the linker error this evening if you don't solve it before then.

good to know. I used ninja because there was no make ;). I assumed CMAKE_SIZEOF_VOID_P is windows specific and simple set is to "":
update.: removed this line because it's solved by using ninja
2. Change FindCoin3d.cmake to look for coin4. (how did you get it to find coin?)
I did this too: https://github.com/looooo/FreeCAD_Conda ... coin.patch
3. Remove netgen from the netgen include path (I see you have done this too)
somehow with ninja it was not possible to detect c++11 availability. + changing the include path.
https://github.com/looooo/FreeCAD_Conda ... tgen.patch
3. Remove backslashes from PySideConfig-python3.5.cmake. I haven't started compiling, so I did't know the other changes you made were necessary.
Not every path in the pyside-config is properly applied. Therefor I have added a proper config file to the recipe which is copied at the beginning of the build: https://github.com/looooo/FreeCAD_Conda ... n3.5.cmake

I can live with this hack, as we will have to upgrade to pyside2 anyway...

ps.: updated because links have changed.

Good news from the pyside issue we encountered. There is already a PR to solve it: https://github.com/conda-forge/pyside-f ... /issues/26

Hmm yes. Maybe I'll try listing references for all of the dlls to make sure nothing is linked to VS 2013. I tried disabling all of the modules and gui, but I still get that error so something must be wrong with one of the core dependencies.

Trying to build the qt-feedstock isn't working either. @peterl94: what win version are you using? I am on win7.
I have the feeling also my previously encountered problems with zlibmed, hdf5, zlib could be related to this.

Windows 10. I was able to build qt4, python, and pyside without problems. My next theory is that it is a static/dynamic CRT mix-up. I'm going to see if I can use dumpbin.exe to check if any libs statically link the CRT.

I'm really at a loss for what to try next. My search for LIBCMT references turned up nothing.
