IFC 4x3 integration (including .NET6 port)

andyward commented 1 year ago

An initial pass integrating both the new GE and IFC4x3 support into xbim Xplorer

This necessitated upgrading to .net6 which was overdue

@SteveLockley , @martin1cerny if you're interested in the current state of the GE6

This is WIP, so don't complete the PR just yet. A few things need finishing/testing

[x] Re-establish the Plugin mechanism - I commented it out as the whole Nuget.Core implementation has been deprecated & changed
[ ] There's no support for net framework - it's Net6 upwards - GE6 only support netcore currently
[ ] The new 4x3 geometries are not complete yet
[ ] I removed the code signing as GE6 is unsigned. Seems to be the general direction with net core but should review
[ ] I had to manually resolve a M.E.Logging.Abstractions version clash
[ ] Project/package meta data needs a review as I had to remove the AssemblyInfos
[ ] Builds need testing
[ ] Testing - lots of change here: new Helix core version, replacement AvalonDock, new GE, new Essentials, + netcore

I'm really keen to check this out, is there an ETA for release?

Hi @andyward, I've tried to compile this branch, but it fails to restore the projects because of missing packages.

1>C:\Data\Dev\XbimLtd\XbimWindowsUI\Xbim.Presentation\Xbim.Presentation_isxv1we2_wpftmp.csproj : error NU1102: Unable to find package Xbim.ModelGeometry.Scene with version (>= 6.1.739-netcore)

Is there an easy fix for this other than compiling geometry locally?

I think that local management would require some hacking of the nuget package version, because geom packages are at v. 6.0.0 from a normal compilation.

Claudio I'll invite you to our private nuget feed in Axure Devops. Separately will chat with the team about how we push to a public nuget (we wanted to hold off while it' still not a complete 4x3 implementation)
