Hi everyone:
I install OpenFOAM on RedHat9.0 with gcc3.2.2,
but failed finally with a lot of ERRORS.
I compile FOAM on FedoraCore3 with gcc3.4.2 then, it seems the errors decreased.
I am wondering that openFOAM must be compiled
only by gcc3.4.X ?

As far as possible we try to e
 

As far as possible we try to ensure OpenFOAM conforms to the C++ standard and update the code for each release of gcc because the newer releases have better standard compliance. gcc-3.2.2 is now too old to compile OpenFOAM but I think gcc-3.3.? still will although I STRONGLY recommend you use either gcc-3.4.3 or gcc-4.0.1 (only for OpenFOAM-1.2) which are superior.

Hi Henry: Thank you for yo
 

Hi Henry:
Thank you for your reply. I use gcc4.0, some problems still exsit, the abridged informations
are listed bellow, please have a look,^_^:

You are missing system headers and this has already been discussed on the forum.

I try to compile OpenFOAM1.2 on Altix (IA64) with RedHat 9.3 an IntelCompiler 9.0.

So far everything runs fine, but the following error ocurred:
could not open file libc_private.h for source file fbsdmalloc.c
could not open file spinlock.h for source file fbsdmalloc.c

Has anybody an idea if I need these files since it seems to be for FreeBSD but I have RedHat linux.

If I need them where can I find them?

Hmm. For the moment you can s
 

Hmm. For the moment you can simply skip that file, I think only simpleFoam is using it and ti does not have to (optimized malloc helps with memory use). There must be a way of getting this to compile because you're just missing some headers but I haven't got any good ideas without trying it out myself...

Hi, Nabil,
I think it's not hard to do that, but you'd better post the error messages so that we will know what's going onhttp://www.cfd-online.com/OpenFOAM_D...part/happy.gif
