Hi |

HeeksCAD [1] and HeeksCNC [2] are open-source, 3D manufacturing tools |
| 4 |
and surprisingly complete in their feature set (from CAD to G-Code |
| 5 |
generation). I would like to give them a try, and found a way to compile |
| 6 |
them. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
What I did: |
| 9 |
edit opencascade keywords: =sci-libs/opencascade-6.8.0 ~amd64 |
| 10 |
emerge opencascade |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
compile and install libarea: |
| 13 |
cd /tmp |
| 14 |
git clone https://github.com/Heeks/libarea.git |
| 15 |
cd libarea/ |
| 16 |
mkdir build |
| 17 |
cd build |
| 18 |
cmake .. |
| 19 |
make |
| 20 |
sudo make install |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
compile and install HeeksCAD: |
| 23 |
cd /tmp |
| 24 |
git clone https://github.com/Heeks/heekscad.git |
| 25 |
cd heekscad/ |
| 26 |
mkdir build |
| 27 |
cd build |
| 28 |
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib64/opencascade-6.8.0/ros/lin/lib64 |
| 29 |
export CASROOT=/usr/lib64/opencascade-6.8.0/ros/lin |
| 30 |
cmake .. |
| 31 |
make && sudo make install |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
compile and install HeeksCNC: |
| 34 |
cd /tmp |
| 35 |
git clone https://github.com/Heeks/heekscnc.git |
| 36 |
mkdir heekscnc/build |
| 37 |
cd heekscnc/build |
| 38 |
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib64/opencascade-6.8.0/ros/lin/lib64 |
| 39 |
export CASROOT=/usr/lib64/opencascade-6.8.0/ros/lin |
| 40 |
cmake .. |
| 41 |
make |
| 42 |
sudo make install |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
To run HeeksCAD: |
| 45 |
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib64/opencascade-6.8.0/ros/lin/lib64; heekscad |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
What do others think about this 3D CAD / CAM solution? Has anybody |
| 48 |
experience with HeeksCAD in a real application situation? |
