UDF Error
 
Hello everyone

I am trying to compile a udf. But when I load the file an error pop up.

The system cannot find the file specified. (system "copy C:\Fluent.Inc\fluent6.3.26\src\makefile_nt.udf libudf\ntx86\2d\makefile")

1 file(s) copied. (chdir "libudf")() (chdir "ntx86\2d")() 'nmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. 'nmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Opening library "libudf"... Error: open_udf_library: The system cannot find the file specified.

Error Object: ()

How do I rectify this ?

Thanks

Re: UDF Error
 
Dear Sid sure that your problem is about VS instalation. you certainly must reinstall VS , during instalation you face whit a option by this title: "register enviroment varible ". you must check it and go on instalation. Best Amir

Re: UDF Error
 
If you have installed the Visual studio 2005, you can try..

Start->All programs->Microsoft visual studio 2005 ->Visual studio tools ->Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt

After the operation, you can see a DOS interface. Use DOS command to find your work fold, and then run fluent. (You directly input "fluent" after DOS prompt and click "return" key)

Open your case and compile UDF. It should be OK.

Good luck.
