I have successfully generated a shared library from src/lib of the FreeWRL source code with cmake, giving me the ability to compile FreeWRL without most of its dependencies but so far it still depends on opengl and libxml. Given that some parts of the parser uses GL defined types, I would have to define those types in an external file and add to the source code to resolve this dependency but since the FreeWRL X3D parser depends on libxml, I am not certain if a solution to this would be to add the libxml to src/others of the BRLCAD source code or to set the compilation of the X3D importer I would be developing as optional.
I am presently testing the generated library and I am facing some issues with threads, so I would like to take a day or two to learn more about the FreeWRL thread implementation in order to resolve the issues.
