installing funkySetFields
 

I downloaded the tar.gz file "funkySetFields.r7106". I extracted the file to $FOAM_APP/utilities/preProcessing/ . For clarity let me call the above path as $PREPROCESS.

$PREPROCESS/funkySetFields/ has a .C file, a Dict file, valueexpressiondriv.c, h etc.

I ran wmake in $PREROCESS/funkySetFields, and got the error "myflex no rule to make target. So I copied the mybison and myflex files to $PREPROCESS/funkySetFields from the Make folder.
I edited the options file. I modified the lines "include $(MAKE_DIR)/mybison" & "include $(MAKE_DIR)/myflex" to "include mybison" and "include myflex".

again ran wmake. This is the error I am getting:

.

Could someone explain what might be going wrong? I would be very thankful, if possible could you direct me to some guide that talks about the whole process? I followed the userguide tutorial that talks about how to compile turbfoam. But the above case is far more complex for me to figure out. Thank you.

At first: is there a reason why you're using a version that is in the section "Ancient history" (http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib_funkySetFields#Ancient_history)?

Which version of OpenFOAM are you using? If it is 1.5 go to http://openfoam-extend.svn.sourcefor...ostProcessing/ and get the most recent version by clicking on "Download tarball". For 1.4.1 use http://openfoam-extend.svn.sourcefor...ostProcessing/. For older versions you're on your own. Sorry

I think I remember that one. Newer versions of bison don't like the old grammar-specifications. This is fixed in the above mentioned version (not in the 1.4.1. There you'd best use the generated Files that come with it - see the README)

Bernhard

PS: I will update the Wiki with a link to the tarball-download

Thank you
 

Hi Bernard,

Thank you. I had looked at the wrong place for the download. I got the right now. It's up and running.

By the way, Great Tool.

thank you

Hello everybody,

I downloaded funkySetField for the OpenFOAM 1.4.1 from the page
http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Co...funkySetFields in the directory /utilities/Preprocessing. Than I did wmake. But I had some errors as below;

I am new to OpenFOAM, could you help me to resolve my problem?

thank you in advance for your cooperations

Oguz,

Hello everybody,

I noticed why such an error occured as above. Because I didn`t take into account to call ./insertGenerated.sh. So I retried to compile funkysetfields..
But this time, I had the error below;

funkySetFields.C:43:26: error: timeSelector.H: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type
funkySetFields.C: In function ‘int main(int, char**)’:
funkySetFields.C:193: error: ‘Foam::timeSelector’ has not been declared
funkySetFields.C:220: error: ‘Foam::timeSelector’ has not been declared
make: *** [Make/linuxGccDPOpt/funkySetFields.o] Erreur 1

So I checked funkySetFields.C. So I noticed that timeSelector.H is needed to run this program. Indeed, this file doesn`t exist among the funkySetFields files therby causing errors...

Does anyone could tell me how to find timeSelector.H, or maybe am I doing something wrong when compiling funkySetField?

oguz,

timeSelector.H should be found in $FOAM_SRC/OpenFOAM/lnInclude in 1.5. You are using 1.5 aren't you?

Hi,

I downloaded the latest version of FunkySetFields.tar.gz for V 1.5 from the link provided. I extracted the file in /application/utilities/preProcessing. It created a direction FunkySetField..... I went into the directory and tried ./Allwmake . It saus permission denied..... . Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Check with "ls -l" whether the executable bits are set for Allwmake (they should be). If not then set them with "chmod a+x Allwmake"

Hi

I use OpenFoam v1.6 and downloaded the right version of funkysetfields. I copied everything in the Preprocessing Folder like described above.
Now I tried to run Allwmake and I get a lot of Errors:

It starts with Errors of the type:
/home/Ghash/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-1.6/gcc-4.3.3/platforms/linux64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.3.3/../../../../include/c++/4.3.3/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/bits/os_defines.h:44:22: error: features.h: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden

then it goes on with this Error:

/home/Ghash/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6/src/OSspecific/POSIX/lnInclude/cpuTime.H:43:23: error: sys/times.h: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden

and then a lot of Errors like this one:

/home/Ghash/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-1.6/gcc-4.3.3/platforms/linux64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.3.3/../../../../include/c++/4.3.3/cwchar:72: error: ‘::mbstate_t’ has not been declared

then this:

/home/Ghash/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-1.6/gcc-4.3.3/platforms/linux64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.3.3/../../../../include/c++/4.3.3/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/bits/gthr-default.h:46: error: ‘pthread_key_t’ does not name a type

and so on.

All in all a lot of Errors, but I still have the hope, that there is just one reason :D

I'm new to OpenFoam and Linux, so sorry if this is a stupid question. And thank you for your help!!!


Ghash

Did you compile anything on that machine before? I doubt it. The features.h is part of the glibc-headers-package on my distro. My tip would be to install the gcc from your OS-Vendor (although you use the OF-provided-gcc). This usually pulls in al the necessary dependencies

Bernhard

This helped, now it works! Thank you for your help.

Greetings
Ghash

Sorry!
Is there a version of FunkySetfields for 1.6. version. If yes please get me the link?
Thanks a lot

Have a look at
http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Co...funkySetFields
the SVN-link works out of the box. For the tarball-link just substitute 1.5 with 1.6

FunkySetFields Installation
 

Thanks, but what should I do with these numerous files?
I taught I should have a .tar file!

Compile them? No. Seriously. Which files are you talking about? In any case (getting via svn or Downloading the tarball and untarring) you get the same directory structure and it should be compiled like a regular utility
And you can get one. See http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Co...ields#Download (just before section 7.1)

Thanks!
I got it , it works!

can anyone please tell me what i m doing wrong...what i can make out is may be i downloaded an older version(for 1.5) and that may be the source of error but i m not sure...Any suggestions are appreciated...
thanks,
rudy...

First thing I noticed is the missing flex-command. Install that too on your system (bison&flex usually come in pairs. They're the Starsky&Hutch of computer science)

Hi, ive just downloaded funkysetfields and i need to get it running ASAP.

At first i had the funkysetfields folder in a folder called openFOAMwiki outside of the OpenFOAM-1.6.x folder, after reading the posts here i put it in the preprocessing folder.

Now i go step inside the funkySetFields folder and try this:

./insertGenerated.sh

But it says permission denied.

i tried just compiling with wmake and i get the error that the fellow above gets.

I am really new to this and very lost, so if anyone can help, please
make it very simple and clear. I am total linux-newb, perhaps even
less than a newb.

P.S: i do have another comment about installing openfoam on ubuntu,
this is on another computer.

thanks in advance!

I have fixed my own problem, perhaps this is way too obvious for the almighty linux users, but i shall post it anyways, just in case another new guy runs into the same problem.

1) open up your terminal and make sure you are in the funkySetFields folder, (where the insertGenerated.sh is) and type this:

chmod +x insertGenerated.sh

2) then type:

./insertGenerated.sh

3) then, wmake.

And you are done with funkySetFields

P.S: sorry about the different fonts!
