Is there a reason you need to go through `std::filesystem` ? What happens if you simply pass your string literal to `CreateNew()` ? I think that the functions you are...

OK, sounds like you have build/configuration issues going on, and I'm not the right person to help you. The only thing I can suggest is that even with static builds,...

Hi @kwasimensah - thanks for reporting! Given the threading model for clients of SdfLayer and SdfSpecs, we don't think this represents a practical problem (and not on x86 architectures, ever,...

@ld-kerley , we spent time discussing unifying concepts, and the TL;DR is that we believe a LightField domain makes the most sense of the options on the table (UsdLightField, UsdGeom,...

@nvmkuruc , we think both `specifier` and `typeName` _should_ be preserved through serialization and parsing... and believe that crate should already be preserving them. After a bit of back and...

Following up: We understand the concern that making the variant decls look more like prim defs could be more confusing. However, we're also not keen on introducing a new use...
