Dear OSG developpers,

I'm using OSG with the DAE plugin in a project. Currently, I'm compiling OSG from the source. Everything works great, as expected. The only inconvenient is the compilation time.

I have thought of modifying the CMakeLists so that it only compiles the DAE plugin. For all other part, I would use the OSG version from the repositories. It means I have to do that for several version of OSG, and I have to maintain it myself.
Is there any easier way to get a similar result ?

Thank you!

Cheers,
Joseph

Hi Joseph,

If you are using unix then you can run the build in parallel, for
instance on my iCore7 system I do a build with:

make -j 8

I also tend to just build release. For testing purposes I also build
the examples but if you just need to libs and plugins then there is no
need to build the applications and examples, the examples are off by
default.

I haven't timed the build recently but even a clean build doesn't take
that long. How long is it taking for you?

Robert.

Hi,

Thank you for your answer. I usually compile it using a similar command and it does not take that long. But it is not the only package we have to compile. I haven't timed it neither but, using 4 threads, it's about 15/30 minutes.

When we give a practical course using our software, we are aiming at having a software installed quickly. In case we use binary packages, we would rather use OSG from Ubuntu official repository.

Cheers,
Joseph

PS2: sorry for the late reply. I was thinking I would get a notification by email.
