Compiling on Windows

[varomix]

I made a more general issue cause I this is going to take some time to get working

after a while I got cmake to generate a solution but now I have ton of linking errors, mostly I think are coming from OIIO my cmake command got really complicated also, maybe I am doing something wrong

cmake -DUSD_ROOT="P:/HDCycles/USD" -DCYCLES_ROOT="P:/HDCycles/cycles" -DCYCLES_LIBRARY_DIR="P:/HDCycles/cycles/build/lib/Release" -DCYCLES_INCLUDE_DIRS="P:/HDCycles/cycles/src" -DBOOST_ROOT="E:/apps/boost_1_65_1/lib64-msvc-14.1" -DBOOST_LIBRARYDIR="E:/apps/boost_1_65_1/lib64-msvc-14.1" -DOPENJPEG_LIBRARY="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/openjpeg/lib/openjp2.lib" -DOPENJPEG_INCLUDE_DIR="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/openjpeg/include" -DJPEG_LIBRARY="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/jpeg/lib/libjpeg.lib" -DJPEG_INCLUDE_DIR="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/jpeg/include" -DPNG_LIBRARY="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/png/lib/libpng.lib" -DPNG_PNG_INCLUDE_DIR="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/png/include" -DTIFF_LIBRARY="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/tiff/lib/libtiff.lib" -DTIFF_INCLUDE_DIR="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/tiff/include" -DOIIO_BASE_DIR="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/OpenImageIO" -DOIIO_INCLUDE_DIRS="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/OpenImageIO/include" -DOIIO_LIBRARIES="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/OpenImageIO/lib/OpenImageIO.lib" -DOPENVDB_INCLUDE_DIR="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/openvdb/include" -DOPENVDB_LIBRARY="P:/HDCycles/lib/win64_vc15/openvdb/lib/openvdb.lib" -DCYCLES_LIBRARIES="P:/HDCycles/cycles/build/lib/Release/cycles_render.lib" ..

after that a solution is generated and I get all this linking errors

just a small sample, will add the oiio libs manually in VS but I'm thinking I might be complicating this too much because I never compile stuff on windows

thanks for any pointers 😆 pointers!!

Will have to take a bit more of a look later, but from a first glance it looks like you're not linking against OpenImageIO_Util.lib at any point. Also, are you building this for standalone usd or for houdini?

Here's a list of specific versions I'm linking against on windows for USD-19.11 python-2 tbb-2017 boost-1.65.1 oiio-1.7.14 openexr-2.4.0 ocio-1.1.0 openvdb-7.0.0 opensubdiv-3.4.3 glew-1.1.0 libpng-1.6.35 libtiff-2017.11.18 openjpeg-2.3 zlib-1.2.11

That might be of some help.

[varomix]

I did not know I had to build it for standalone or Houdini, I do want to use it in Houdini, that's my goal. the libraries I am using I think are newer cause I'm using the ones precompiled for Cycles, I'll try with this specific versions

[Vochsel]

Then in that case you'll need some slightly different versions. Because Houdini comes with it's own build of USD, you must link against that specifically.

The only difference in libraries should be to use oiio-1.8.13. You will need to link against Houdini libraries however. The FindHoudini.cmake file in cmake/modules should point you in the right direction of houdini environment variables.

[trebconnell]

Just an FYI I'm attempting a Windows build as well... I'm trying to get it to work with Usd v20.08 (latest), VS2019, Python3, Windows.

I'm hoping to have hdCycles reference only libraries that are already downloaded by Cycles or Usd.

I don't know yet whether this will be prohibitively difficult to make work... We'll see.

[trebconnell]

I got this working... PR's incoming to fix a few issues I hit. Wasn't terribly hard fortunately.

[Kif11]

I don't have much knowledge of building from source. Can someone share prebuild binary for Windows, Houdini 18.5?
