New libpacks for Windows with VTK and OCCT7 by sgrogan

[zbigg]

A question: Freecad MASTER should be cloned /or what/ to build 0.18_pre ? /need to make a fresh build in linux/

[NormandC]

Development of v0.18 is not even started yet. Package minor version number is still set to 17.

https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/blob ... sts.txt#L6

Current master has received no new commit since the releases/FreeCAD-0-17 branch was created yesterday. Right now, master and 0.17 release are exactly the same, 0.17.13509 or git commit 0258808.

The latest libpack for msvc2008 is missing VTK (cmake fails to configure). I am searching at

https://sourceforge.net/projects/free-c ... 20LibPack/

and I have

https://sourceforge.net/projects/free-c ... z/download

Is that the correct location?

Hi,

Just trying to build w/msvc2017 community (and FC libpack ver. 11.5.3) but so far cant move forward with some error-such as:
1. at beginning of compilation some FC scripts cant obviously find msvc command line building tools:
(...)
4>Generating moc_Debugger.cpp
3>LINK : fatal error LNK1181: <translated> cant open input file „C:\ci\6035\install\lib\TKBO.lib”
-where are these fixed paths defined?

2. cant install pip (get-pip.py) on python because theres no SSL module, cant install ssl module..(UPDATE: solved with external python 2.7 install)

cheers,

O"m not a pro with compiling. Especially not on windows.
So faras I know the libpack is compiled with an older version so you have to compile everything yourself

You were able to build with msvc 2017 community? Can you provide step-by-step details?

Can some mod unpin this thread and pin this one https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic. ... 20#p299852
or maybe apeltauer can make a new thread.

I Just noticed you request and did so, except the other seems to be about a debug lib pack, so I left this one as well for now but let be know if you want it no longer "sticky".

By the way, in this topic it looks like we might need a newer QT for Windows as they are getting a printing bug on QT 5.6.2

https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic. ... 65#p302365

does the lib pack in the other topic already include a newer QT?
