IFC SDK releases are available as downloadable archives (.zip or tar.gz files depending on the platform). When an archive name does not include "dll", the archive contains static libraries.

To obtain the correct libraries for your compiler on your platform:

  1. Create a directory on your computer for the IFC SDK libraries, header files, and documentation.
  2. Download IFC SDK libraries for your operating system and compiler. For a detailed description of archive filenames, see Archive Filenames.
  3. Extract the libraries and documentation, making sure to preserve the directory structure stored in the compressed files. Examples and samples are included in the archives.

    For a detailed description of the unpacked archives, see Archive Contents.

IFC SDK binary archives are provided for all dynamic and static platforms supported by ODA Software.

Using Multiple Configurations

You can unpack different archives for the Windows platform into the same folder. This is convenient, for example, to build Release and Debug configurations using the same source, or even to have configurations linked dynamically and statically.

Unpacking other archives to the same folder will cause warnings because there are duplicate files in both archives. This is okay; duplicate files are the same.

Important! Always use empty folders when upgrading IFC SDK versions. Mixing files from different IFC SDK versions may cause problems.
