Working with Greg Ward and Kitware, we have modified the Radiance source
tree to allow us to build Radiance easily for Windows, Mac, and Linux. We
Offer installers of the latest (HEAD) release, and we will update these
every
two weeks. These installers also include a GUI version of rvu (that also
runs on Windows!). Instructions for downloading and installing these
packages
can be found at the following page:
openstudio.nrel.gov/getting-started-developer/getting-started-radiance
We hope these prove useful for many in the Radiance and general building
simulation communities.
We will add instructions for using the CMake build system on your own
systems soon.
Happy raytracing!

Hi Rob,
Very nice to have current Radiance version on Windows.
I've installed binary setup file in Windows and set PATH and RAYPATH
environment variables as suggested on web page.
I have few other Radiance installations in Windows (inside Daysim for
example), so I've experimented with PATH and RAYPATH variable, and put path
to new Radiance installation as first in both variables and I get next
message when I try to run any program:
*The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration
is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line
sxstrace.exe tool for more detail.*
I also tried to remove all paths related to other Radiance installations
from PATH and RAYPATH varialbes, but still getting the same error message.
Any ideas how to solve this?
Thanks in advance,
Marija
Let's move this thread to the radiance-dev list. You should subscribe there if you want to respond to code/compile issues.
All help is appreciated in sorting these issues out.
Thanks!
-Greg

...but harder for Solaris. cmake building fails when making Version.c:

It looks like it's lost "radiance_SOURCE_DIR".
