I am consideringusingopen cascade as an basic interface for a numerical software.
I the open cascade site there was a reference about building open cacade GUI enviorment:
" Open CASCADE GUIF is available as SALOME User Interface Toolkit (SUIT) which is a part of SALOME Open Source distribution "
Can you provide me with more information about it?
Best

Hello Branislav,
Unfortunately, GEOM, SMESH, VISU modules require full SALOME and cannot be built and used in the light (no-CORBA) mode.

Hello Tsachi,
SALOME GUI module, often also called SUIT (=SALOME User Interface Toolkit) provides a functionality which can be used to build CAD applications front-end. It includes a set of packages which can be used as "bricks" to build GUI framework of the application. SUIT is Qt-based and provides (among other features) integration with CASCADE, VTK, Qwt libraries. For example, OCCViewer package wraps Open CASCADE visualization features, VTKViewer makes the same for the VTK library, etc. SUIT source package implements base GUI mechanisms, STD package allows building SDI, MDI, and multi-desktop GUI environment, CAF package provides front-end for Open CASCADE CAF (application framework), etc.
Regards,
Vadim.

Has anyone looked at using the LGPL'd Qt4 yet - Qt3 is still problematic in relation to its open source licensing and Visual Studio and would probably still require using the Qt/Win'd version on sourceforge developed for building KDE3.
Any thoughts?

Hi Pete and all salome platform users,
For information, the next published version will be the 5.1.1. It has already been tagged
internally and we hope to publish it on site in two or three weeks. One of the main modification of
this version is that all the graphical parts has been ported from qt3 to qt4 (a lot of work as you can
imagine !). I have ported this version on qt4.5.0 after you send a message on that in the forum
(Indeed, there were only two modifications).
For windows ... this version is not yet compatible ! We have all the patches to compile on windows
but some of them remain not integrated by lack of time before the 5.1.1 tag. I will say more on that
point after the 5.1.1 publication.
Regards,
E.A.-
Erwan,
As I've said before, I and I'm sure others on the qtocc/salomesmesh/salomegeometry projects would be pleased to help deliver this with you - you only have to ask!

I know that you or others can help ... but, concerning the windows port of salome, We are working
on the version based on qt4 which have not been published yet. That's why I conclude my message
saying that I will precise more points on windows after the publication.
Regards, E.A.

Hi Erwan,
Do you mean a totally new version of Salome will come out soon? Is it a stable release?
What about the version of python in the coming 5.1.1? And... I am interested in its Changlog. -

Erwan,Its been a long 3 weeks - its always dangerous to predict a Salome release date.
Is there a better estimate for the next release date yet?

Hi Pete,
Yes, I have a better estimate for the next release, it is 10/07/2009
Indeed, you are right ... it is difficult to predict a Salome release date,
it is easiest after the release has been published !

Erwan,Ah yes, but does 10/07/2009 mean 10th July, 2009 (i.e. in the past, like the Brits use) or 7th October, 2009 (i.e. in the future like the Americans use). That could be the root cause of your scheduling problems...
Only joking - but still awaiting for your next announcements on Win32!

Download and started running it last night on Vista, but suffered from frequent crashes in the Salome session but I see how much work you've put into this release.
Do you have any instuctions, tools or other collateral etc for building from source - I'd love to be able to run it within a debugger?

Yes, I have instructions to build in release or debug mode but I've not
published them since I have still a lot of patches in sources and I want
to integrate them before publishing everything ...
For the moment, if you have a reproducible bug, you can send it on the
forum or describe it in errata page
http://sites.google.com/site/wikisalomeplatform/Home/salome-windows/salome-windows-errata
(you need a google account), I will try to fix it and publish a patch.

Hi Pete,
For your tests on Vista : Is it 32 or 64 bits and did you need to install
the vcredist libraries ?

32 bit Vista, and I didn't need to install vcredist - but this is a development machine with VS2008 installed (VS2005 installed previously).

Hello Tsachi,
Yes, you can. SUIT is compilable on Windows.

Hi Vadim,It is really good news
, but where I can find instructions how to build SUIT on Windows(XP)?Best regards,
Branislav

Hello Branislav,
The simplest way to build SALOME on Windows is using of embedded cmake-based build procedure (refer to KERNEL module sources).
You'll need binaries of the pre-requisite products (either download from SALOME ftp repository, see this thread: http://www.salome-platform.org/forum/forum_14/thread_2896; or build them manully). Also you will need a compiler (if you download SALOME products from the ftp repository, you'll need to use Visual Studio 2009 Express Edition) and latest version of cmake (www.cmake.org).
Good luck!
Regards,
Vadim.
