[osg-users] [build] OSG 3.4.0 Build with Visual C++ 2015

[Stuart Mentzer]

Thanks Sebastian.

Good reminder about /arch:AVX2. I can post a separate binary package built with this for people with newer CPUs if it shows a good performance gain.

I'll also experiment with /fp:fast and see what the performance gain is, but it sounds like it might not be a good idea for an OSG distribution package.

I'll try to get the Intel C++ builds working and I'll report back if I have any interesting findings. The docs claim binary compatibility with VC++ 2015 with /Qvc14. If there is interest in the CMake additions to support Intel C++ I can push them to a GitHub branch.

If anyone can point me to good performance benchmarks that would be helpful in sorting out the VC++ and Intel C++ options and performance.

Thanks,
Stuart
