[AWIPS #IAW-499703]: CAVE Support



Hello,

As I mentioned Microsoft changed their Visual Studio Build Tools files. We 
finally found the new install process that works and will be updating our 
documentation to reflect this soon, but in the mean time these are the new 
instructions:

-Remove from your Apps and features: AWIPS CAVE, Miniconda3, and Microsoft 
Visual C++ Build Tools
-Remove caveData folder from your user's home directory
-Reinstall Miniconda3
-Download the 2019 Build Tools (I used version 16.9) 
https://my.visualstudio.com/Downloads?q=build%20tools%202019&pgroup=
-Start installing it - select the "C++ Build tools" and on the right make sure 
that both the MSVC v142 - VS 2019 AND MSVC v140 - VS2015 are selected (there 
are a few more packages that are checked by default and those are fine) - see 
attachment
-Verify your environment variables are still correct
-Once installed click the "Launch" button from the Visual Studio Installer
-In two separate commands, first install numpy
pip install numpy==1.15.1
-Then install jep
pip install jep==3.8.2
-Then install CAVE and you *shouldn't* have any issues displaying derived 
parameters

Let us know if you have any issues.

Thanks,
