New Package occt (OpenCascadeTechnology) #222

Open craffael opened 4 years ago

craffael commented 4 years ago

I'm planning to contribute OpenCascadeTechnology (occt) as a package to hunter. But for this to work I need to patch the source$s of occt. Can you create a repository cpp-pm/occt for me? (I'm basically following this guide)

rbsheth commented 4 years ago

@craffael That sounds good. Looks like they don't have an open git repository? I found this one http://git.dev.opencascade.org/gitweb/?p=occt.git

Do you have access to it already? We can make an empty git fork where you can push the code.

craffael commented 4 years ago

You could fork it from here: https://github.com/Open-Cascade-SAS/OCCT

@craffael Done! https://github.com/cpp-pm/OCCT

Great, Thanks! It will probably take a while until it works because I'm going on holidays in a few days :)

@rbsheth I've created a new branch hunter-7.4.0 in the cpp-pm/occt repository. But now I want push another change to this branch but I'm not allowed anymore because it somehow turned out to be a protected branch. Can you check my permissions for the occt repository? Or should I create a PR in that repo?

Another problem that I currently have, is that OCCT is really a massive library and the time limit on travis is just too short in order to build debug + release versions of it. I see two options: 1) disable all ci testing of the hunter package occt 2) Somehow modify the ci setup so that debug and release builds are carried out separately. I guess I could modify jenkins.py so that I can pass an additional environment variable CONFIGURATION_TYPES which is the forwarded to polly.py...?

What do you think/prefer? Do you have another idea?

Yeah the hunter* branches are protected. You should make a PR/separate branch that doesn't start with hunter to make changes.

Hmm, give the configuration types a try. You could also try Github Actions like #250 since Travis/AppVeyor will be deprecated in favor of Actions for our CI.
