[solved] gmsh: win build errors, update to occt7.5

[looo]

I need to fix the gmsh recipe to finally switch fully to occt 7.5. But gmsh somehow failes to build for windows. There are some linker errors. Maybe someone can help with finding a solution for these issue https://github.com/conda-forge/gmsh-feedstock/pull/39:

do you have an idea? This blocks us from moving to occt7.5 which is reported to have some important fixes.

Maybe @uwestoehr has some ideas?

No because I and also the LibPack use directly the binary gmsh.exe from Gmsh: https://gmsh.info/bin/Windows/gmsh-4.8.1-Windows64.zip
Nothing else is necessary than to take this .exe file (no DLLs etc.)

As it seems to get more difficult to build gmsh with visual-studio this would be an easy orkaround. Not sure which occt version is used for the gmsh.exe.

Do we have any possibilities to communicate with gmsh developers? Anyone active in the forum?

They appear to exist in the future! As far as I am aware OCCT 7.5.1 is the most recent version.

Where do you get the gmsh source code from? I guess OCCT support is optional there and possibly to create the gmsh DLL a needed OCCT library (Standard_ErrorHandler is part of TKernel) is not set.

In the master branch the version is already set to 7.6.0
