Philip,
In the file:
ThirdParty/rpmBuild/SOURCES/libccmio-2.6.1.patch_0

You need to add support for 11.0, this can be achieved by modifying lines 14 and 41 in the file. You need to modify line 14 as this is a new Darwin main version, different from 10.

Let me know if you need help. If you get this working can you post the issue and resolution on mantis so Martin can include in the hotfixes.

Hi Darrin,

Thanks for the help.

OK I am not quite sure how to modify the lines. At the moment lines 10-16 are:

Code:

@ -34,6 +34,7 @@

     x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-null)     echo linux64_2.4-x86-glibc_2.2.5     ;;

     *)                                 echo unknown                         ;;

 esac

I changed it to:

Code:

     *)                                 echo unknown                         ;;

 esac

But then it gives out about a misformed patch.

Then the lines 36-45 are:

Code:

Is this OK?

OK,

The compilation on Mac Lion runs fine now, I had to change two files:
ThirdParty/rpmBuild/SOURCES/libccmio-2.6.1.patch_0 and ThirdParty/rpmBuild/SPECS/libccmio-2.6.1.spec files
to include support for Mac Lion (darwin11).

I have reported this bug to mantis here.

I have attached a zip containing the patch and spec files that worked for me.

Philip

Hi Hrvoje

Thanks for your instruction for compiling 1.6-ext on Mac. I followed your instruction and managed to compile it on Mac 10.6.5 (Snow Lepord) with one small change.

I removed -lrt at /OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext/src/decompositionMethods/scotchDecomp/Make/options as Mac OS X doesn't need the dependency on "-lrt".

OpenFoam-1.6-ext Mac

Hi Im looking for this version of open foam for mac but your link for this version does not exists anymore.

Do you know where can I find this version ? (.dmg if it is possible)

Thanks a lot

I have created a sparse disk image for OpenFOAM-1.6-ext and a Mac, available on Extend Sourceforge Download section.

This is what you do to use it:

1) download the dmg file
http://sourceforge.net/projects/openfoam-extend/files/ -> OpenFOAM-1.6-ext.dmg

2) double-click on it, to mount it
3) open a terminal and do the following

cd
mkdir OpenFOAM
cd OpenFOAM
ln -s /Volumes/OpenFOAM-1.6-ex .

and you are ready. Make yourself a run directory:

mkdir -p ~/OpenFOAM/<yourName>-1.6-ext/run

source the environment

. ~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext/etc/bashrc

and you are ready to run.

Please report success/failure.

Compiling OpenFOAM-1.6-ext on a Mac

If you want to compile from scratch, find yourself a Mac (Yum!) and install XCode. The next steps are:

1) download and install wget
2) download and install rpm
3) download and install git
4) sort out malloc header link

cd /usr/include/
sudo ln -s malloc/malloc.h .

5) sort out gmake

cd /usr/local/
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/make gmake

6) install Paraview from dmg: we will use Paraview reader

7) Create a Casename-sensitive disk image (~10 GB, to be safe) and link it as above. Into the link image do a git checkout into it

8) cd ~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext/etc ; cp prefs.sh-EXAMPLE prefs.sh

9) source the environment and compile all. You are in business!

Hope you'll find this useful. Happy McFoaming,

Hrv

I didn't realize an installation wiki page existed: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/In...enFOAM-1.6-ext

Greetings to all!

Yep, but it's very recent! Check this thread for more information: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...tain-lion.html
