Linking Issues on Windows with Visual Studio 2017 BuildTools

Problem

Hi,

I have linking issues on Windows using Visual Studio 2017 BuildTools.

Expected behavior:

Linking should occur without errors.

Actual behavior:

Linking occurs with errors:

"D:\Documents\Development\ThirdParty\openimageio\build\oiio\INSTALL.vcxproj" (default target) (1) ->
"D:\Documents\Development\ThirdParty\openimageio\build\oiio\ALL_BUILD.vcxproj" (default target) (3) ->
"D:\Documents\Development\ThirdParty\openimageio\build\oiio\src\libOpenImageIO\OpenImageIO.vcxproj" (default target) (5) ->
(Link target) ->

Steps to Reproduce

I'm running with a very minimalist set of dependencies right now and the command I issue is as follows:

cmake D:\Documents\Development\ThirdParty\openimageio\oiio -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=D:\Documents\Development\ThirdParty\openimageio/build\release -DILMBASE_INCLUDE_PATH=C:\Users\thomas\Packages\ilmbase\2.2.0\ilmbase\include -DOPENEXR_INCLUDE_PATH=C:\Users\thomas\Packages\openexr\2.2.0\openexr\include -DBOOST_ROOT=C:\Users\thomas\Packages\boost\1.64.0\boost -G "Visual Studio 15 Win64" -T v141,host=x64

Here is a Gist with the full output: https://gist.github.com/KelSolaar/d27ee328824fc7a079fdfbbc28b9d03d

Versions

• OIIO branch/version: 1.7.15
• OS: Windows 10
• C++ compiler: Visual Studio 2017 BuildTools - cl

Just to confirm that same happens with https://github.com/OpenImageIO/oiio/releases/tag/Release-1.8.4dev

[KelSolaar]

I think that what happened is that CMake find_package picked the jpeg and tiff libraries from my Python installation and they are not compatible.

I noticed that by setting -DVERBOSE=ON.

Try to link "legacy_stdio_definitions.lib" library to your input project, this is for deprecated function names compatibility that was substituted into recent visual studio releases.
