27 DXF plugin for SALOME Geometry module requires:
29 - SALOME, at least KERNEL module (http://www.salome-platform.org).
30 - Open CASCADE Technology and OCCT DXF XDE Import/Export product
31 (http://www.opencascade.org).
37 The build procedure of the DXF plugin for SALOME Geometry module is
38 created using CMake build system.
39 In order to build the plugin you have to do the following actions:
41 1. Set an environment to point to the OCCT DXF XDE product, for example:
45 % setenv DXF_ROOT_DIR /path/to/the/DXF-6.7.0
46 % setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${DXF_ROOT_DIR}/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
50 % export DXF_ROOT_DIR=/path/to/the/DXF-6.7.0
51 % export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${DXF_ROOT_DIR}/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
53 Note, that OCCT DXF XDE product requires OCCT license library.
54 Normally OCCT license library is distributed with OCCT DXF XDE
55 product, but it can also be distributed separately. In latter
56 case you might need to set-up environment to point to the OCCT
57 license library, as follows:
61 % setenv OCCLICENSE_ROOT_DIR /path/to/the/OCCLicense-6.7.0
62 % setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${OCCLICENSE_ROOT_DIR}/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
66 % export OCCLICENSE_ROOT_DIR=/path/to/the/OCCLicense-6.7.0
67 % export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${OCCLICENSE_ROOT_DIR}/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
69 2. Create a build directory (in the example below, it is assumed
70 that this directory is created at the same level as sources
71 directory DXFPLUGIN_SRC), for example:
73 % mkdir DXFPLUGIN_BUILD
75 3. Configure the build procedure:
78 % cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=<mode> -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<installation_directory> ../DXFPLUGIN_SRC
81 - <mode> is either Release or Debug;
82 - <installation_directory> is a destination folder to install DXF plugin.
84 By default (if CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX option is not given), DXF plugin will be
85 configured for installation to the /usr directory that requires root
86 permissions to complete the installation.
88 4. Build and install DXF plugin:
93 This will install DXF plugin to the <installation_directory> specified
94 with cmake command on previous step.
100 For setting unusual options for compilation or linking run the following
101 commands o get details on some of the pertinent environment variables:
104 % ccmake ../DXFPLUGIN_SRC
106 You can also use other options of cmake command to customize
107 your installation. Learn more about available options by running
