good night

I was doing the tutorials of SU2 and reading the setup files. From the way they are organized, I think they are generated by a script where we choose the options and it gives us the file.

I don't know if this really exists but if there isn't any script, how do you generate your setup file like the template given by SU2 documentation ?

thanks !

I saw in the site that the python script config_gui.py does the configuration files for us.

I tried to click over it, run it in IDLE but its not working as I expected.

How can I use this ? Making the config files by hand is very hard !

I tried to open it by prompt but I'm getting an error message.

Anyone knows if this is the proper way ???

Hi Leo

You should open that python script file and read the code in it.

I don't think using this script can generate the configuration file automatically, since that there is no related class or method in this file. Maybe you could ask the author Aniket Aranake

PS: in python environment, you could use the command execfile(config_gui.py) to execute the script file instead of only typing the script's name.

It is possible to construct a config file by hand, though typically it's easiest to start with an existing config file and modify it for your particular problem. Is there a particular reason to build from scratch?

I tried to construct it by hand but there are too many options to put in the file and doing it by hand is very inneficient (costs a lot of time).

It would be nice to have an efficient way to use such a powerfull code. I know the gui exists but I'm having hard times trying to make it work.

I'm fighting as much as I can before bother the developers.

thanks you guys for the replies. Any help will be welcome !

good night !

sorry its portuguese with some text formating problems.

the last line is:

importerror: Dll load failed: 1% its not one valid win32 app

Most of the config options have sensible defaults, and for most problems only a small set need to be specified. One should not have to construct the whole thing by hand. Is your problem different enough from the existing templates that you can't modify an existing one?
