[SOLVED] Cannot find OCL on recent version

[RatonLaveur]

Hello gents,

OS: Windows 10 (10.0)
Word size of OS: 64-bit
Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit
Version: 0.19.19327 (Git)
Build type: Release
Branch: master
Hash: 65c4e1bd11e0820cd1f1d6577d23bf9cdbb54247
Python version: 3.7.3
Qt version: 5.12.5
Coin version: 4.0.0a
OCC version: 7.3.0
Locale: English/Switzerland (en_CH)

for some reason on this version 0.19 pre when I open path and type into the python console "import ocl" OCL isnt found. It used to be pre-packaged, am I doing something wrong?

I do have the EnableExperimentalFeatures set to true (which has no bearing on OCL) but that's when I realized I still dont have access to 3D surface.

Can you help?

EDIT: marked as solved

I have a few packages from the freecad-community PPA, and it looks like the python-opencamlib I have installed only has files for python 2.7; apt's history log says I updated it on February 8, not sure if it worked before nevermind, that's when I upgraded to ubuntu 18.04, that package hasn't been rebuilt since 2018 or so

do you have any kind of python console on windows? I mean, apart from the one in freecad... is the library somewhere in sys.path?

I'll go check as soon as I'm back on the old cow.

Evening Sir,
This has been an issue in the Windows builds for a while now.

I've been going back to older binaries that I keep and copying the file, `ocl.pyd`. Go to the main directory of a previous FreeCAD binary with OCL working, and search for the file. Copy it. Paste it in the `lib` directory of the root FreeCAD directory of current nightly builds.

I have sent a PM to

@SGrogan

about the issue.

Should be fixed now. ocl build is also available here:https://github.com/sgrogan/opencamlib/r ... ag/8612634

this thread got me to finally look into getting OCL ubuntu packages for python3 building

hopefully it will make into the freecad-community PPA soon:
