IFC import in Linux mint doesn't work.

[regis]

some progress in Fedora, no more complain on compiling.

It worked right outside the box for you? withiout any code playing or strange installations?

Kind of... found cmake-gui help.

Bernd's post more than one year ago and IfcOpenShell README.md :-
https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic. ... f&start=10
https://github.com/IfcOpenShell/IfcOpenShell

Seem my problem somehow at some earlier point was similar to sergiobini (freezing) but now seem different - a problem between Linux Mint and Fedora? I am checking IfcOpenShell, not much on Fedora in fact...

See screencapture on the setting in cmake-gui... hope it helps.

Sorry,
this is the file i was talking about

I just used the ifcopenshell 0.5.0-preview2 and compile
(EDIT: note again i am on Fedora - problem may be platform specific)

I am not sure the above make some difference - my attempt to export and reimport a simple wall and window still have problem - only window is re-imported...

But i try your file, the cabinet is there (though not shown in the Equipment object, but need to turn on the underlying shape object)

BTW, any recommendation on ifcviewer in linux?

As I said in last post, I just used the ifcopenshell 0.5.0-preview2 and compile - in Fedora 25 which have oce.

I also get AppImage to my understanding use occ kind of 'built-in'.


My attempt to export and reimport a simple wall and window still have problem - only window is re-imported.


Need to have an IFCviewer on linux to see if export always have problem.

Thanks for any idea?

The IFC viewer I use on linux if ifcplusplus, works pretty well. Usually if a file imports in it without error, then it's a good file.
Indeed a first important step is to look if the IFC file has a problem, or the FreeCAD IFC importer.

Thanks!

This site right? - https://github.com/ifcquery/ifcplusplus
Seems needs to try compile again


BTW, I visited site below some time ago http://www.ifcwiki.org/index.php/Open_Source- they have the ifcplusplus 'outdated' http://www.ifcplusplus.com/. I thought the software no longer exist as it lead to some japanese website.



Thanks anyway.

Seems like there is still activity on the ifcplusplus repo though: https://github.com/ifcquery

[paullee]

Yes, i found the correct / updated site. Thanks.


p.s.
Off-topic info for reference, hope it helps:

- I try to compile on Fedora 25 the source from IfcPlusPlus:
> It failed as it require CMake3.9.4, QT etc. etc., F25 only have something like 3.9.4
. (force install 3.9.4 ok, but can't do with QT etc.)

- Then I find Bernd's thread and repo https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic. ... &start=100:
> Which fail too with some log... will try harder

Hi, with help from Twohot and Bernd, ifc++ 'kind of' works!

Found the files I test output + input = already have no wall! (Reading the content of file also find no word about 'wall'). Only windows as they were imported in FreeCAD.

So as of now, for my Fedora 25:-

- Export works only for window object only (?), wall sort of disappear
- Seem import (the) window and sergiobini's cabinet are both okay
- Import ifc++ IfcOpenHouse.ifc: have apparently roof not working
- Would test more

Linux Mint
- Seem import not yet ok(?)
