[cgma-dev] How to build the CGMA on Windows 7 64bit + VS2010?

Dear Dr. Hu,

Thank you very much for your sample code. I noticed that in the main function you also have the following line:
  CubitStatus status = InitCGMA::initialize_cgma("OCC");


which will pop up error on my machine. So I still missed something. 

Is there anyone who have successfully configured CGMA by CMake in Windows?

Thanks,
Zhanghong Tang

Hello  Zhanghong,

I understand that at some point, you wanted a simple test for boolean operation for a box and a sphere.


I work on Linux machine, and am currently running on cgm-occ code from our trunk location. I just built a small tests of size 1 block and a radius=0.7 sphere and got results for intersection and subtractions stored in intersection.brep and box-sphere.brep(for box subtracts sphere) and sphere-box.brep( sphere subtracts box). 



I hope you good luck in your build (sorry I can't be much help on your cmake build,) and I hope the testcase and result files can help you save some time testing.

Dear Dr. Grindeanu,



Thank you very much for your kindly reply. I attached the VS2010 project created by CMake (64bit.zip). Except that I provided the include and library folders of OOC when configure the CMake, I used all default values to generate VS2010 project.



The libraries can be built successfully, however, it failed after I created a simple test project "cgmatest', this project and source code are also attached ('cgmatest.zip').

Thanks,
Zhanghong Tang

Hello,
How did you configure? Even if you use cmake, at some point you need to have a configuration step.

You can see what we build every night here:
http://gnep.mcs.anl.gov:8010/waterfall?category=cgm
Those are all built on a Linux compute node, ubuntu 10.04, 64-bit. 


The configuration closest to yours' is probably cgm-occ or cgm-occ-sta.
These are built on merge cubit 12.2 branch, with occ version 6.5.3
http://gnep.mcs.anl.gov:8010/builders/cgm-occ


or 
http://gnep.mcs.anl.gov:8010/builders/cgm-occ-sta

If you send your config.log file (or equivalent?) , we may have some clues of what is not working.



Best
 Regards,
Iulian



Dear all,

I have successfully built the project 'cubit_OOC' after I used the version 12.2 from here:
https://svn.mcs.anl.gov/repos/ITAPS/cgm/branches/Version12.2/



However, after I built a simple example "\test\operation.cpp" and run it, the following error displayed:
ERROR: Invalid or unsupported engine: 'OCC'

Is there anything I missed?

Thanks,


Zhanghong Tang

Hello,
It would be good if you can make it work.
How did you configure ? Using ccmake or autotools in cygwin?

You should configure with-occ OR with-cubit, if you have cubit.
It seems that you installed occ, so configure ONLY with-occ.


I will be out of email until Monday

Dear  Dr. Grindeanu,

Thank you very much for pointing out my problem. I thought that the CGMA can work without any other package. 
Now I have
 installed Open CASCADE Technology 6.5.3 and rebuild the CGMA project (reset the path by CMake and create the VS2010 projects), the
 following error displayed when build the cubit_OCC project:

Dear Dr. Grindeanu,

Thank you very much for your kindly reply. With the
 help of CMake I have successfully build the libraries. There are 7 libs generated:
cgma_init.lib
cholla.lib
cubit_facet.lib
cubit_facetboolstub.lib
cubit_geom.lib
cubit_util.lib
cubit_virtual.lib



Hello,
So I assume you are on the main branch.
You can't use CGM without a geometry engine. Did you read my previous e-mail?

You will need to configure with OCC or Cubit. 


Sorry, I can't be of more help. 
Iulian


I tried to build a simple test "brick.cpp", however, there are some errors when run the example:

Facet-based geometry modification is a beta capability.
ERROR: This capability is currently disabled.


To enable this capability, issue the command 'set developer
 commands on'.
ERROR: In GeometryModifyTool::brick
       Problem creating a brick.
Assertion failed: brick != 0, file ..\test\brick.cpp, line 42


I would like to do a simple test:
1) build a box and a sphere with both center at (0,0,0) and size
 1;
2) do boolean operations such as intersection between the box and sphere;
3) output the result to an OFF file.

Could anyone give me such a simple example?

Thanks,
Zhanghong Tang

Hello,
I don't know if anybody tried building on Windows, maybe Jane or Tim know.
You have to configure
 with a geometric engine. If you don't have Cubit for your platform, you will need to configure with OCC
It seems that you use cygwin.  I know that OCC can be build on Windows, on VS 2010.
(http://www.opencascade.org/getocc/require/)



You then can try configuring on cygwin with occ. And then look at Makefiles generated to see what would be needed for projects in VS. Or is there a cmake-based build? I think that would be easier to port to Windows.

Dear all,



I am trying to build the CGMA on Windows 7 64bit + VS2010. I have attached the project. However, there are hundreds of errors such as:

2>CGMAD.lib(DAG.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: __cdecl

Could anyone help me to take a look at it and give me some hints on how to setup the project or modify some code to successfully build the project?

Thanks,
Zhanghong
