Add vcpkg installation instructions

Open NancyLi1013 opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

openvdb is available as a port in vcpkg, a C++ library manager that simplifies installation for openvdb and other project dependencies. Documenting the install process here will help users get started by providing a single set of commands to build openvdb, ready to be included in their projects.

We also test whether our library ports build in various configurations (dynamic, static) on various platforms (Linux, Windows: x86, x64, arm, uwp) to keep a wide coverage for users.

I'm a maintainer for vcpkg, and here is what the port script looks like. We try to keep the library maintained as close as possible to the original library.

Hi @danrbailey thanks for your above info. It is so great to remove all the patches in vcpkg. Personally, it might be better to have a released version for openvdb to be updated.
