> "if my idea of adding a second build step can get rid of the VS2008/MSCRT9 dependency for the final library"<br>
<br>
Yes, I think it absolutely could. It would be based on the assumption,<br>
however, that the interface generated by analyzing the source under<br>
the VS2008 environment would in the end be compatible with what you<br>
compile and link for the final library. And it would mean a two-stage<br>
build, with VS2008 still required for the first stage.<br>
<br>
I would be interested to see if anybody can replace gcc-xml with the<br>
new&improved CastXML, and still build ActiViz using a more modern VS<br>
all in one go. I haven't had time to investigate bringing things up to<br>
date for using CastXML, but if anybody else does, please do let us all<br>
know here on the VTK lists.<br>
<br>
Question for you:<br>
Why not just publish a git branch with your changes on GitHub or some<br>
other publicly hosted site? Perhaps your branch would get picked up by<br>
the folks maintaining the ActiViz repo now.<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
David C.<br>
