1 | Open CASCADE Technology source repository |
2 | ----------------------------------------- |
3 | |
4 | This directory contains sources of Open CASCADE Technology (OCCT), a collection |
5 | of C++ libraries providing services for 3D surface and solid modeling, CAD data |
6 | exchange, and visualization. OCCT can be best applied in development of |
7 | software dealing with 3D modeling (CAD), manufacturing / measuring (CAM) or |
8 | numerical simulation (CAE). |
9 | |
10 | The OCCT code is subject to the Open CASCADE Technology Public License Version |
11 | 6.5 (the "License"). You may not use the content of the relevant files except in |
12 | compliance with the License. Please see the LICENSE file or obtain a copy of the |
13 | License at http://www.opencascade.org and read it completely before using this |
14 | software. |
15 | |
16 | In order to build OCCT libraries from these sources for use in your program, |
17 | you need to: |
18 | |
19 | 1. Download, build, and install the required third-party libraries. |
20 | |
21 | Follow the instructions provided in the documents titled "Building 3rd party |
22 | products for OCCT" on http://dev.opencascade.org/?q=home/resources for |
23 | installation and building. |
24 | |
25 | 2. Install and configure WOK development environment. |
26 | |
27 | See http://dev.opencascade.org/?q=home/resources for the latest build of the |
28 | WOK and instructions of configuring it. |
29 | |
30 | 3. Use WOK to generate build scripts or project files for your compiler, |
31 | then build the libraries. |
32 | |
33 | Note that you may use also the pre-processed source packages that include |
34 | makefiles and projects, or binary packages, available for official releases of |
35 | OCCT at http://www.opencascade.org. In this case however you will not be able |
36 | to re-generate derived files after changing the CDL files (requires WOK). |
37 | |
38 | The current version of OCCT can be consulted in the file |
