Hi,

i've been trying to build OpenFOAM from the sources but there's a problem in building foamDebugSwitches which seems to be caused by autoRefineDriver.h. Has anyone an idea what could be causing that problem? Thanks a lot!!

The error messages are first:

/home/markus/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/src/OpenFOAM/lnInclude/PtrList.C: In copy constructor 'Foam::PtrList<t>::PtrList(const Foam::PtrList<t>&) [with T = Foam::featureEdgeMesh]':

+ wmake libso errorEstimation
'/home/markus/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/lib/linux64GccDPOpt/liberrorEstimation.so' is up to date.

and then also

I could solve the problem myself. the reason is i'm still using gcc 4.2 as 4.3 isn't a ubuntu package yet. in case anyone else has the same problem: in the openfoam bugs forum you can find a patched version of autorefinedriver which works with gcc 4.2
