Contrib equationReader/Installation

From OpenFOAMWiki

1 Installation

0. If you are running precompiled binaries, first ensure that you can compile your copy of OpenFOAM.

1. Download it from here, or copy and paste the link below:

http://openfoam-extend.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/openfoam-extend/trunk/Breeder_1.6/libraries/equationReaderExtension/?view=tar

2. Unzip and unpack the files to where they need to be:

a) If you trust me, do the "auto-unpack" commands (just open a terminal window, browse to the directory containing your download, and paste these lines in):
tar --transform='s,equationReaderExtension,'$WM_PROJECT_DIR',' \
-x -v -z -P -f openfoam-extend-equationReaderExtension.tar.gz
b) If you want to see what's going on, just open the archive. It will be obvious where everything needs to go.

3. Compile the new library and demo project:

cd $WM_PROJECT_DIR/src/equationReader
wmake libso
cd $WM_PROJECT_DIR/applications/solvers/equationReader/equationReaderDemo
wmake

equationReader is now installed.

2 Testing

To test the installation, copy the new tutorials/equationReader/ directory to your run directory, and run equationReaderDemo.
