Compile Openfoam for debugging without compiling third party packages
 
Hi,

I have compiled OpenFoam-5.x in debug mode without compiling third party libraries. Could anyone give me a hint about how can I connect the third party package that already exist in my OpenFoam4 installation to my OpenFoam 5?

Thanks!!

Quick answer: I guess the simplest would be to create a symbolic link for the folders "ThirdParty-*/platforms"?
For example, by running the following command:
Code:
ln -s $HOME/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-4.x/platforms $HOME/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-5.x/platforms
it will create a symbolic link folder "$HOME/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-5.x/platforms" that points to the one on the 4.x version.
