swak4Foam and OpenFoam 3.0.x
 

Dear All,

has anybody tried to compile swak4Foam with OpenFoam 3.0.x? I tried it but it won't work. It seems to be some issue with the configuration files or with the environmental variables. OpenFoam 3.0.x compiles fine without any error, but swak4Foam complaines about missing files. This is the output of ./Allwmake in swak4Foam directory

I actually did this yesterday and it worked fine. Note that you need to grab the devel repository.

No, it is not running. I downloaded the development release but the error remains. I have a feeling that this is somehow related to the content of the $(OBJECTS_DIR) variable. However, I do not have a clue why this points to a wrong place.

Hi,

I have noticed the same behavior and also linked it to the $(OBJECTS_DIR) variable, however I could not resolve the problem. My colleague however had no problems, nor did our cluster. There may be some small setup differences between the machines, but something like this did not happen before.

Regards,
Tom

Allright, I think I solved this issue. It is not suitable to put the sources of swak4foam into the $WM_PROJECT_DIR/<path>. A better idea is to put the sources into $WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR/<path>, then everything compiles fine and one can use
to copy the generated executables to a central installation if desired.

Kind regards,
Fabian

Dear Community of Foamers,
I was trying to install a swak4Foam version which I have download from:
git clone https://github.com/Unofficial-Extend...xtend-Breeder2.0-libraries-swak4Foam.git swak4Foam

for using with OF3.0.0. I put the swak4Foam files into the folder user-3.0.0/swak4Foam
I also run from the base ./maintainanceScripts/compileRequirements.sh
I have added into my PATH variable the following:
Then I run ./Allwmake and I get the following error:

After that I run the command: I run again ./Allwmake and I get the follong error:

I have search for other post but I could not reach to any solution.
Can anybody tell me if I am missing something or doing something wrong?
How can I solve the problem?

Thanks in advance

OpenSUSE 13.2, OpenFoam 3.0.x

I am trying to install swak4Foam according to this guide: https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/C...m/Installation
The output is

There's no foamString.H in my OpenFOAM-3.0.x sources. The Foam::string class is declared here:
/opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-3.0.x/src/OpenFOAM/primitives/strings/string/string.H

And foamString.H can be found in my foam-extend-3.2 sources:
/opt/foam/foam-extend-3.2/src/foam/primitives/strings/string/foamString.H

So It implies that I cannot build swak4Foam for OpenFOAM-3.0.x, can I?

Hi,

If you take a look at Libraries/swak4FoamParsers/include/swakString.H, you find

FOAM_MOVED_TIME_AND_STRING_HEADERS symbol is defined in swak.H:

To learn why FOAM_VERSION4SWAK >= VERSION_NR(3,2,0) && defined(FOAM_DEV) is try, post your foamVersion4swak.H from Libraries/swak4FoamParsers.

Hi (privet!), Alexey
The content of swak4Foam/Libraries/swak4FoamParsers/foamVersion4swak.H:

swak4Foam/Allwmake:
swak4Foam/Libraries/Allwmake:
It seems like I have a regular (non-development) OpenFOAM-3.0 and the statement FOAM_VERSION4SWAK >= VERSION_NR(3,2,0) && defined(FOAM_DEV) shouldn't be true. Then FOAM_MOVED_TIME_AND_STRING_HEADERS should never be defined and "swak.H" should include #include "string.H".

Hello,

I also got similar problem when installing swak4Foam, could anyone give me a hint please :)

this is my make.log file:

@Zeppo,

In fact I missed that you are unhappy about foamString.H during wmkdep invocation. The utility does not expand pre-processor definitions, it just scan file for #include directives and symlinks files. So the error could be ignored.

About your log file, I can not reproduce the error on Fedora 21/OpenFOAM 3.0.x (commit 9cf0156). The software builds OK till Bison invocation (and it is expected since I do not want to install older Bison).

That is why I see no errors of this type when I run ./Allwmake for the second time.
c++ compiler can't convert "int &" to "long int &" implicitly on the ground of possible numeric overflow:
I got it! When I built my OpenFoam from sources I specified the option WM_LABEL_SIZE=64 (just out of curiosity) which affected the definition of the "label" type:
It is now:
And somewhere in <cstdint>:
Unfortunatly swak4Foam doesn't always obey the rules - sometimes it uses "int", sometimes "Foam::label", which makes a little mess in the code and I can't got it compiled. I can recompile OpenFOAM with WM_LABEL_SIZE=32 to overcome the issue and I'll be fine, though. Anyway, if what I said is true should I report it as a bug to anywhere?

Hi,

There is https://sourceforge.net/p/openfoam-e...ketsswak4foam/.

So is there any solution to this issue ready to use?

I have recompiled OpenFOAM with WM_LABEL_SIZE=32 and then swak4Foam has been built with no issues. Are you sure you really need more than (2^32)/2=2147483648 cells, patches, regions etc in your simulations? Just wondering.

Btw, shouldn't "label" be typedefed as "unsigned int" or "unsigned long int"? As far as I can see, objects of this type is only used to index data containers.

I opened a ticket with a bug report: https://sourceforge.net/p/openfoam-e...swak4foam/233/

Hi Fabian, I have the same problem as you, but I don't quite understand how did u solve it. Could u please explain to me step by step?

the same problem
I could not use step 2. instead i used:

if i do the installation as you say i obtain an error in:

git checkout port_2.0.x

and then i obtain the following:
