Bison 3.0 is rather new (this July) and seems to justify its jump in version number with massive changes.

I only did one exploratory compilation with it which seems to show that there will be critically changes to the grammar required. I'm not even sure whether it will be possible to support 2.x and 3.x with the same source files. Due to time constraints and as I didn't expect any Linux-distributions that are used for work to incorporate this yet (as a change of bison might break lots of things) I didn't follow up yet.

For the time being I recommend using bison 2.x. I will eventually have a look at compiling swak with bison 3.0 but as long as the majority of the enterprise Linuxes has bison 2.x it will be an absolute priority to support it.

Of course if someone finds a way to compile swak with bison 3.x I will gladly accept the patches (IF THEY DON'T BREAK COMPILATION WITH BISON 2.x)

Well, thanks for the heads up, I'll then compile bison 2.7 and use it. Also, maybe it would be a good idea to include this in the readme, I understand bison 3.0 may not be that widely used, but been there doesn't hurt anybody :)

Thanks for you time

I use OF 2.2.0
I install flex and bison but I have problems with swak4foam itself
this is the error
what should I do?
any help would be appreciated

Quick answer: you got the ZIP file from my Github repository. Therefore, the file permissions are broken. Try:

ok Bruno
I will do as you said

It said " there is no such file or directory" :(

Try:

nothing!!! :(
must I do some changes in swakconfig.debian file and swakconfig.example file Bruno?
I get confused :(

@Mohsen: Please describe in detail how exactly you have downloaded, unpacked and tried to build swak4Foam.

Ok!
I checked whether I have flex on my system,the answer is yes
then I used " sudo bash ./configure" because the "permission error" occurred.
then " sudo wmake"
and bison 2.7 is installed
then I extract your file on my system and use " sudo ./Allwmake" and an error occurred which was shown in the last reply thread of mine :(

That explains it. The files have been tampered by the root account, making it impossible to use in the normal account.

1. Remove the folder "swak4foam-OF22X" with the sudo command:
   
   Code:

   ---

   sudo rm -r swak4foam-OF22X

   ---

2. Download and unzip the original package as normal user:
   
   Code:

   ---

   wget https://github.com/wyldckat/swak4foam/archive/master.zip
unzip master

   ---

3. Build it as normal user:
   
   Code:

   ---

   cd swak4foam-OF22X
./Allwmake

   ---

Hi Bruno
OK! thanks for your hints,I will follow your steps.

Hi dear Bruno
I think it is done!
you are awesome ;)
It takes too long to compile the code( about 10 mins)
I use a second ./Allwmake and attached the result in the following file
but when I used groovy bc as a type of bcs OpenFOAM cant find it
please see the error

best regards
Mohsen

Sorry
I forgot to add this lines to controldict :)
it is OK now



libs (
"libOpenFOAM.so"
"libgroovyBC.so"

"libsimpleSwakFunctionObjects.so"
"libswakFunctionObjects.so"
) ;


thanks again Bruno

I agree
I disagree. Compiling swak can take muuuuch longer with the wrong compiler and full optimization ;)

Yes Bernhard.thanks for your great works.
I under-estimate the time, ;) sure.It takes much longer :)

Greetings to all!

I've updated the instructions on the "Building" section: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Co...4Foam#Building
The "tip" indicates how you can build swak4Foam with multi-core capabilities, therefore reducing the time needed to build it.
Note: It does not affect how it will operate afterwords, it only affects the building process.

Best regards,
Bruno

If you want to use swakCoded-function object or compile software based on swak set the environment variable SWAK4FOAM_SRC to /home/fg312/OpenFOAM/swak4foam-master/Libraries (most people will be fine without setting that variable)


If I ignore those, when I use funkySetField with expression
"pos().y <= 0.005*cos(pi*(pos().x+0.05)/0.1) ? 1 : 0";
to define my water free surface, it is fine; but with expression
"average(fpos().y < surf(0.) ? surf(1.0) : surf(0.))";
there are fatal error.

This was caused by a change in the interface of functionObjects (in OpenFOAM).
This was fixed some time ago in the development-version (of swak) but not yet in the released version (will come with the next release). Until then you'll have to pull the development version and compile that

It's hard to say where the ^ is pointing too. Please use the CODE-tag for output. That (amongst other things) uses a fixed-width font and that makes the terminal-output useful.

The � in your output: does it really look like this?

My suspicion is that there is a character in the expression-string that the Lexer can not interpret. I see that you use whitespaces in your expression-string. That should be OK, but could you remove the spaces and try it again?

Dear Bernhard,

Thank you very much for you reply.
I will try to download the development version and compile it later.

For the second question, once I remove the whitespaces in the expression-string, the different error appeared (see below).
