Dear OpenFOAMers,

paraview failed compilation on OpenSUSE 12.2. I am wondering if anyone here has a solution for this. Thanks!

Greetings Pei-Ying,

openSUSE 12.2 is using Gcc 4.7, for which ParaView requires a minor tweaking in the source code. You can find a quick fix near the end of this page: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/In...M-2.1.1/Fedora - namely in step #6 "Now, in order to build ParaView 3.12.0 that comes with OpenFOAM".

Disclaimer: I haven't confirmed this myself yet, but the error message and characteristics in openSUSE 12.2 seem to fit the same profile as Fedora 17!

Best regards,
Bruno

Thanks a lot Bruno!

I had to use:

cd $WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR sed -i -e 's/ClearAndSelect = Clear | Select/ClearAndSelect = static_cast<int>(Clear) | static_cast<int>(Select)/' \ ParaView-3.12.0/Qt/Core/pqServerManagerSelectionModel.h
./makeParaView
---------------
./makeParaView -qmake $(which qmake-qt4) did not work

Yes, that patch is correct. I used it too :-)

P.S. GeekoCFD based on openSUSE 12.2 is already available :-)

Greetings to all!

That's because it's specific for Fedora For some reason, they decided/concluded that there might be more than one version of qmake, such as qmake-qt3 or a custom build of Qt...

Hi,

I forgot to mention that I have already written instructions for installing OpenFOAM 2.1.1 + ParaView 3.12 on openSUSE 12.2 here: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/In...#openSUSE_12.2

I did the test on a virtual machine, so there might be missing some instructions related to graphics cards

Best regards,
Bruno
