[Smtk-developers] Release of CMB 4.2 and SMTK 1.1 and Beyond

[Bob Obara]

Hi All,

We are nearly the release of both CMB 4.2 and SMTK 1.1 (I hope either the end of this week or the beginning of next week).  As soon as the release is tagged and branched we will be moving on to CMB 5.0 and SMTK 2.0 (We will be maintaining CMB 4.2.x and SMTK 1.1.x for awhile).

The first change will be to transition to QT 5.9 (and leave QT 4.8.x in the past) and support on the pybind11 Python wrapping generation tool (and say goodbye to Shiboken).  This will require Visual Studio 2015  (which is needed by pybind11), Mac, and Linux developers should not be effected.

I did run a QT5 Experimental Build on CMB 4.2-RC2 on my Mac running 10.11.6:

PB11 - Pybind11 Issue
NBL - New Baseline Needed
WPI - Widget Path Issue

	 21 - MeshViewerMeshChangeMaterial (Failed) - NBL
	 26 - MeshViewerMeshSmoothing3dm (Failed)
	 31 - ModelBuilderAssignColors1 (Failed)
	 39 - ModelBuilderEdgeModification (Failed)
	 56 - ModelBuilderRotate2D (Failed) - NBL
	 74 - ModelBuilderPolygonCreateFaceFromImage (Failed)
	 82 - ModelBuilderRotateAlongPickedCenter (Failed) - NBL
	107 - ModelBuilderExportSimAdHShallowPy (Failed) - PB11
	108 - ModelBuilderExportSimAdHSurfacePy (Failed) - PB11
	109 - ModelBuilderExportSimDakotaPy (Failed) - PB11
	110 - ModelBuilderExportSimHydraPy (Failed) - PB11
	111 - ModelBuilderExportSimProteusPy (Failed) - PB11
	121 - SceneBuilderArcCreate1 (Failed) - WPI

Of the 13 test failures - the 5 python tests are currently not supported using Pybind11 (right John?)
