- bin/tools/create-mpi-config to query/write values for system openmpi.
In some cases this can be used to avoid an mpicc requirement at runtime.
- adjust openfoam session to include -test-tutorial forwarding to the
tutorials/AutoTest. This helps with writing installation tests.
- adjust foamConfigurePaths to latest version
- removal of gperftools default config, as per develop
- align wmake have_* scripts to support version query as per current
develop branch
- use config.sh/ fallbacks when the corresponding *_ARCH_PATH is empty
(eg, BOOST, CGAL, FFTW).
This aids when building outside of the regular OpenFOAM environment.
- missed detection of system libraries when installed with multiarch
paths like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
CONFIG: improve handling of group/user config files (#928)
- changed bashrc handling of FOAM_CONFIG_NOUSER to use
FOAM_CONFIG_MODE instead. Propagate into foamEtcFile to make this
a stickier control.
This change allows better control, but also enables cluster
installations to define their own value within the OpenFOAM prefs.sh
file to prevent users accidentally mis-configuring things if
necessary.
- remove undocumented handling of an (a)ll mode in foamEtcFile to
avoid potential pitfalls.
- add support for FOAM_CONFIG_ETC handling.
This allows injection of an extra search layer when finding
project etc files
ENH: improvements to foamConfigurePaths (#928)
- handle FOAM_CONFIG_ETC implicitly, or explicitly with the new
-etc option.
STYLE: more explicit wording in foamConfigurePaths usage (#1602)
- document that an absolute path (eg, -scotch-path) overrides/ignores
the equivalent ThirdParty setting (eg, -scotch)
- longer options -system-compiler and -third-compiler for -system
and -third, respectively. Clearer as to their purpose.
- adjust the location sanity check to look for META-INFO directory.
- provide dedicated detection 'have_ptscotch' function that can be
used after the 'have_scotch' function.
It sets the PTSCOTCH_ARCH_PATH, PTSCOTCH_INC_DIR, PTSCOTCH_LIB_DIR
and helps when the serial and parallel versions are located with
different logic.
- if FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN is unset and some scripts set this to /usr/lib*
as a fallback (eg, to avoid an undefined value) this will cause a
system library to be found before appropriate *_ARCH_PATH entry.
This was noticed during a scotch compilation without third-party:
resulting in the system library (/usr/lib64/libscotch.so) to be found
instead of the SCOTCH_ARCH_PATH location
(/usr/lib64/mpi/gcc/openmpi/lib64/).
Simply changing the search order doesn't work for use, since we wish
to retain a preference for any dynamic libraries discovered in a
real FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN.
Circumvent these issues by only taking libraries from
FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN if it also points to a location within ThirdParty.
- generalize some of the library extensions (.so vs .dylib).
Provide as wmake 'sysFunctions'
- added note about unsupported/incomplete system support
- centralize detection of ThirdParty packages into wmake/ subdirectory
by providing a series of scripts in the spirit of GNU autoconfig.
For example,
have_boost, have_readline, have_scotch, ...
Each of the `have_<package>` scripts will generally provide the
following type of functions:
have_<package> # detection
no_<package> # reset
echo_<package> # echoing
and the following type of variables:
HAVE_<package> # unset or 'true'
<package>_ARCH_PATH # root for <package>
<package>_INC_DIR # include directory for <package>
<package>_LIB_DIR # library directory for <package>
This simplifies the calling scripts:
if have_metis
then
wmake metisDecomp
fi
As well as reducing clutter in the corresponding Make/options:
EXE_INC = \
-I$(METIS_INC_DIR) \
-I../decompositionMethods/lnInclude
LIB_LIBS = \
-L$(METIS_LIB_DIR) -lmetis
Any additional modifications (platform-specific or for an external build
system) can now be made centrally.
