Dear Foamer,

I'm working on a new boundary condition and I compiled it in an external folder with (FOAM_USER_APPBIN) and I tried to attach it to my case with two different ways:

1) put the lib in the controlDict file : libs ("libB.C.so");
2) attach the pass and the name of the library to the files in the solver

But in both cases it gives me the same Warning :

dlopen error :lib<B.C name>.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

and after that tells me there is no boundary condition with the name of ( B.C name) and gives me a list with the available B.Cs

By the way any other created B.Cs by me working well except this one

Could you please help me to solve this problem?

Dear Foamer,

As an update I managed to remove the warning ( I wrote the name of library in the control Dict file with missing one letter) However still not working as the output when run the case is :
Create time

Create mesh for time = 0

PIMPLE: Operating solver in PISO mode

Reading field p

Reading field U

--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
Unknown patchField type isoTropicInlet for patch type patch

Valid patchField types are :



By the way I'm using OF-v 1612+

Thanks

You probably want to use FOAM_USER_LIBBIN instead of FOAM_USER_APPBIN. The latter one should contain solvers (executables), the former one libraries.

So in Make/files (the last line) should look like

LIB = $(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN)/libB.C

Dear Joachim,

Thanks for your interest. yes you are right I i wrote it with wrong way but in the existed file its (FOAM_USER_LIBBIN)/libB.C not APPBIN.

But still the problem exist. I can't see it in the existed B.Cs

Thanks

crazzy.pirate43, could you solve the problem? I am facing the same problem now. I can compile my ".so" and put it in FOAM_USER_LIBBIN. However it doesn't recognize the new boundary.

Nevertheless I get the following warning with no further clue of which symbol is the problem at,

--> FOAM Warning : 
    From function void* Foam::dlOpen(const Foam::fileName&, bool)
    in file POSIX.C at line 1251
    dlopen error :  /home/user/OpenFOAM/user-7/platforms/linux64GccDPInt32Opt/lib/libmylinearBC.so:  undefined symbol: _ZTIN4Foam3RBD9restraintE

I hope you are still around

I actually just needed a little bit more searching. Solution in Unable to load lib file: "undefined symbol"
