Hello, I want to report the results from a few tests regarding the next release. So far I have tested the following platforms: 1. Cygwin: shared library + dynamic drivers 2. Cygwin: static library + static drivers 3. Bare Windows: shared library + dynamic drivers
ad 1. General: CMake under Cygwin requires that you set the environment variable CMAKE_ROOT, also when running make. (I need to make a note in the installation documentation for that.) There is a problem with the shared l'ibraries that are produced during the build: you need to set the path right. Unfortunately this includes _all_ paths: lib/csa, lib/nistcd, lib/qsastime, src, drivers, bindings/c++, etc. I tried to use the LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH variable in the toplevel CMakeLists.txt file, but that failed: libtool can not find the driver DLLs then. (We need to sort this one out!) Tests: None done, because of the above issues. ad 2. General: Set CMAKE_ROOT Tests: Testing the Tcl examples fails - you need to set TCL_LIBRARY so that the custom shell can find the initialisation files (init.tcl etc.) Testing of C, C++, F77 and F95 worked fine. There are however differences for examples 15 and 20. ad 3. General: Extend the path with the directory containing the ...\dll subdirectory (use the complete path to be sure; add to/check the installation notes). Fortran: For some reason the export definition files were not taken into account when linking. I restored that feature - strictly for "bare Windows". Otherwise the link step fails! Tests: Tcl fails again - presumably also on TCL_LIBRARY. I had a failure in example x19f (F95), due to a difference in calling conventions (the mapform function that is passed). This led to a couple of changes, but it all works again. Differences for examples 14, 15 and 20. (Other platforms remain to be done: MSYS and MinGW) Regards, Arjen Delft Hydraulics, GeoDelft, the Subsurface and Groundwater unit of TNO and parts of Rijkswaterstaat have joined forces in a new independent institute for delta technology, Deltares.
