Hi Piotr,

OK, I had a bit of downtime to check CMake and the v2.1.0 build - I've not used 
cmake before, so it was a first and I rather liked it I have to admit :)

I used the Windows GUI of cmake to generate for Visual Studio 11 x64 (i.e., 
vs2012)
I then opened the IlmBase solution in VS2012.

To build, the IEX solution needed the PLATFORM_WINDOWS define setting.
After building, and using my test program (as outlined before) it would not 
link with a missing half::_toFloat and half::_eLut unresolved externals.

I'm not sure if (apart from the missing PLATFORM_WINDOWS) this should just 
build using CMake generated projects and solutions so I've not delved deeper 
into this.

Just to note, whilst I got lots of "non dll-interface class 'Iex_2_1::BaseExc' 
used as base for dll-interface class 'Iex_2_1::ArgExc'" type warnings, I did 
not change the code at all to attempt this half test.


The fact that it's complaining about the _toFloat array is probably linked to 
the runtime errors I had - in that when I ran my test previously it was this 
structure that was corrupt/missing.

Hope this helps identify any problems under VS2012/x64 …..

Best Regards,
   Simon
