Hi Mike -- I recall discussing with you the concept of building the
dependencies with VS8. You even sent me your cookbook for it. However, this
has been constantly back-burnered. I don't know of anyone who has tackled it
yet.
 
I don't see any need to distribute binaries built with 7.1. However, I would
suggest that we keep the current OSG 1.2 /  VS 7.1 installer package around
on the Wiki, even after you create one built with VS8.

Subject: [osg-users] moving to VS8



Hi all,

 

So I'm finally getting to the point where I'm doing OSG stuff under
VisualStudio 8.  I know, late to the party (fashionably so, yeah that's it!)
I'm planning for my next installer build to use VS8, but a couple questions.

 

* Would anyone continue to need the VS7.1 build as well?  Dont expect it be
painful to do both, but subtly different installers could be confusing to
downloaders, and why do unnecessary work?  <insert rant on MS gratuitous
incompatibilities here>

 

* Has anyone assembled a 3rdParty dependencies package for VS8 along the
lines of 3rdParty_Win32binaries_2005_05_10.zip (which is for VS7.1)?  I
don't see it on
http://www.openscenegraph.com/osgwiki/pmwiki.php/Downloads/Dependencies

 

* I've been out of the loop on the cmake build system development.  Is there
some quickstart info, or is it obvious?  (didn't see mention on the wiki.)

 

cheers

-- mew
