Compling UDF on windows8.1(x64)
 

Hi every body
I have a problem while compiling UDF on ANSYS FLUENT 16.1 (WORKBENCH) in windows8.1(x64), I use MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO 2012 EXPRESS, NET Framework 4.6 and SDK for windows8.1 too.

All UDFs were compiled with no problem, but when I want to LOAD them I faced with such this ERROR:

"Opening library "C:\............\Fluent\libudf"...
Error: The UDF library you are trying to load (libudf) is not compiled for 2d on the current platform (win64).
The system cannot find the file specified.
C:\...............\Fluent\libudf\win64\2d\libudf.d ll
The system cannot find the file specified.
C:\...............................\Fluent\libudf\w in64\2d\libudf.dll
Error Object: #f "

My pleasure if any body could help me to fix this problem.

NOTE:
I have some TRIAL and EDUCATIONAL UDFs, those were compiled and LOAD very well but my owns didn't.
I Wrote my UDFs according to those TRIAL UDFs, so I expected them to run very well but didn't.

Well, Fluent thinks differently. Can you show the output on the screen that you get when you try to compile?

Hi pakk

when I click on "BUILD" bottom this massage was illustrated:

"Setting Post Processing and Surfaces information ... Done.

but when click on "LOAD" this message will illustrated:

Okay, now I think it is something else: you have spaces in your foldername.
Solve this (for example) by replacing them by underscores:
That might solve your problem already.

(Fluent has sometimes problems with spaces in file names/folder names.)

pakk, you showed me good tips, it was spaces in my UDF's name. when I deleted that spaces, UDF compiled and load successfully.

thanks and best regards pakk
