# Description
Break the recursive include dependency by moving GUI_App.hpp from
HMS.hpp into HMS.cpp. Add the required standard headers and use explicit
std/nlohmann types to remove reliance on transitive includes.
This prevents recursive header inclusion while preserving HMS
functionality.

# Description
This PR enables building OrcaSlicer on Windows with the **clang-cl
(LLVM)**
toolchain and the **Ninja** generator, in addition to the existing MSVC
path.
Clang is already supported on Linux with this codebase, so this extends
that
support to Windows.
The changes fall into three categories. All are either no-ops on the
existing
MSVC/Visual Studio path or Windows/clang-cl-specific, so the standard
build is
not affected.
### 1. C++ conformance fixes
clang-cl is stricter than MSVC and rejects several constructs that
cl.exe
silently accepted. Each of these is non-conforming code that MSVC
tolerated:
* **Explicit template instantiation in `BoundingBox.cpp`** — clang-cl
does not
instantiate `BoundingBoxBase<Point, Points>::construct` through the same
transitive path MSVC uses; added the explicit instantiation.
* **Eigen cast materialization in `AABBTreeLines.hpp`** — `.cast<T>()`
returns a
lazy `CwiseUnaryOp`, not a concrete `Matrix`; materialized it before
passing to
`distance_to_squared`, which expects a concrete type.
* **`LabelItemType` underlying type in `PresetComboBoxes.hpp`** — gave
the enum
the same `std::size_t` underlying type as `Marker` to resolve a
narrowing
conversion in a switch.
* **`T2A_` cast in `BaseException.cpp`** — explicit `static_cast<const
char*>` on
the ATL conversion helper result.
* **Wide string literals in `GUI_App.cpp`** — used `L""` literals where
concatenated with a `std::wstring` (`url_prefix`).
### 2. Build system / dependencies
* **Exclude clang-cl from MSVC-only CMake guards** — `if(MSVC)` is true
for
clang-cl, so blocks applying cl.exe-only flags now exclude Clang.
* **Disable TBB LTCG** — oneTBB enables MSVC IPO/LTCG by default,
emitting
proprietary `/GL` bitcode objects that `lld-link` cannot consume.
Disabling IPO
produces native COFF, linkable by both `link.exe` and `lld-link`. TBB is
threading infrastructure, so the runtime impact of disabling LTCG is
negligible.
* **wxWidgets target path** — clang-cl uses the MSVC frontend variant on
Windows
but reports compiler id `Clang`, so wxWidgets looked under
`clang_x64_lib`
instead of the `vc_x64_lib` layout the deps are built with.
### 3. Ninja generator support
* **Runtime DLL copy** — the DLL copy step was nested under
`CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES` (multi-config only), so single-config Ninja
skipped
copying OCCT/GMP/MPFR/WebView2/freetype DLLs next to the executable. Now
runs
for both generator styles, guarded by `if(WIN32)`.
* **`build_release_vs.bat` Ninja target** — `ALL_BUILD` is a Visual
Studio
target; Ninja uses `all`. The script failed with
`ninja: error: unknown target 'ALL_BUILD'` when invoked with `-x`.
## Tests
Built from a clean checkout on Windows with:
* clang-cl 22 (LLVM toolchain bundled with Visual Studio 18)
* Ninja Multi-Config generator
* lld-link as the linker
The full build (deps + slicer) compiles, `OrcaSlicer.dll` links with
`lld-link`,
and `orca-slicer.exe` runs. Verified end-to-end by loading a model,
slicing it,
and generating valid G-code (screenshot below).
The existing MSVC / Visual Studio build path is unaffected — all changes
are
guarded by compiler/generator/platform checks or are conformance fixes
that
compile identically under MSVC.

Selecting the web Device tab loaded the printer's web UI from the selected discovered machine
when the preset carried no host. That arm was lost merging main into this branch — two of the
three Plater.cpp hunks from #15134 survived, this one did not — leaving the tab blank, since
PrinterWebView starts on an empty URL and nothing else navigates it.
In printer-agents mode the legacy web page was appended under Notebook::PAGE_MONITOR, which
resolves to the same "monitor" id as the native Device tab. FindPageByName returns the first
match, so PluginPages::relayout() — which saves the selection by name and restores it after
rebuilding the tab strip — moved the user off the web tab onto the native one. The tab also
disagreed with its own label, being created as "Device (legacy)" and renamed to "Device (Web)"
on the next show_device() call.
* Add /bot merge for delegated vendor profile maintainers
Vendor profile PRs no longer need a maintainer with repository write access: an
account listed in the FOLDER_MERGERS variable can squash-merge a PR confined to
the folders it owns by commenting /bot merge on it. Anything reaching outside
that grant, targeting a branch other than main or release/*, or missing a green
Check profiles run is declined with a comment naming the offending files.
Grants live in the merge-delegation environment, so only an admin can change who
may merge, and MERGE_BOT_DRY_RUN stops all merging without a code change.
Check profiles now also runs on release/* pull requests; nothing else changes
for existing contributors.
* Add profile version bump to the code review checklist
Without the bump in resources/profiles/<Vendor>.json, a preset change never
reaches existing installs over the air.
The static libavcodec.a/avutil.a compiled the auto-detected
videotoolbox/audiotoolbox objects, which reference VideoToolbox
framework symbols (_VTDecompressionSession*). The app link line
happened to satisfy them transitively, but the orca_stubgen module
link (CI-only) failed with undefined symbols. The player decodes in
software (swscale), so disable both HW-accel paths to keep the
static libs self-contained.

wxMediaCtrl3 and AVVideoDecoder are platform-neutral C++ compiled on
all three platforms, so list them once in the common SLIC3R_GUI_SOURCES
instead of duplicating them in the APPLE and non-APPLE branches. The
else() branch is now empty and drops out entirely.

gstbambusrc was the GStreamer source element for the old wxMediaCtrl2
Wayland player, its only consumer (deleted in the previous commit).
The new FFmpeg player handles bambu:/// URIs through the Bambu C API
instead. Drop the plugin and the gstreamer-1.0 / gstreamer-base-1.0
REQUIRED pkg-config dependencies that existed solely for it.

wxMediaCtrl2 was never instantiated on any platform (USE_WX_MEDIA_CTRL_2
is 0 everywhere); wxMediaCtrl3 replaced it. Delete wxMediaCtrl2.cpp/h,
drop them from the Win/Linux source list and the gettext list.txt, and
collapse the preprocessor-dead #if USE_WX_MEDIA_CTRL_2 gate in
MediaPlayCtrl.h.

The literal --enable-shared was always overridden by ${_link_cmd}
(--enable-static --disable-shared on Apple, --enable-shared elsewhere)
and FFmpeg configure processes these flags in order, last one wins.
Remove it and the stale comment documenting the workaround.

The test executables that link libslic3r_gui (which links PkgConfig::LIBAV)
have a load-time dependency on the deps-built FFmpeg shared libraries. The CI
unit-test runner only receives the tests artifact, so those libraries were
unresolvable there (Ubuntu 24.04 ships libavcodec.so.60, not .61). Copy the
libraries next to each affected test executable and give it an $ORIGIN rpath,
mirroring the Windows branch that copies DLLs next to every test executable.
orcaslicer_copy_sos now places the copies in the per-config output directory
for multi-config generators, like orcaslicer_copy_dlls does.

The AppImage dependency closure resolves each bundled ELF's DT_NEEDED
entries with plain ldd, which cannot resolve the deps-built FFmpeg stack
(libavcodec/libavutil/libswscale) once it is copied into the bundle:
those libs are not installed in any standard loader path and carry no
RUNPATH of their own, so ldd reports the siblings as missing and the
build aborts. Extend the loader path with the bundle directory plus the
source directories of already-bundled files (mirroring
scripts/check_appimage_libs.sh), and key the dedup set on the bundled
file path instead of the source path so dependencies resolved from the
bundle directory are not copied onto themselves.
