What I wanted to still have done for the OpenFOAM community, but never managed to find the time for it - wyldckat/wyldckat.github.io GitHub Wiki
This was moved out from the Home wiki page... the majority has been changed to past-tense, but I might have forgotten about something or other in it.
Need to look into what was done for ParaView 5.3.0, to see if any of the below still matter.
-
https://github.com/7islands/vtkPOFFReader/pull/9
- Need to review the code and split the test cases from the source code.
- http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/openfoam-paraview/61047-native-paraview-reader-bugs-14.html#post552781

Notes:
- Please feel free to check these links and to answer to them yourself!
- Objective for... uhm... sometime in 2016 - Finish wrapping up the pending topics here: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/openfoam-installation/102534-discussion-restructuring-installation-page-openfoamwiki-net.html
TODO... [[Category:Installing OpenFOAM - Other Details]]
- Notes for ParaView:
- Getting started on the wiki:
- https://github.com/wyldckat/solidMechanics/issues/1
- https://github.com/wyldckat/FluidStructureInteraction/issues/1
- https://github.com/wyldckat/evapVOFHardt/
- Need to revise the instructions at the wiki and make it perfectly clear that the instructions on the wiki are unofficial...
- Need to write instructions on how to release disk space, by deleting unwanted intermediate files.
-
https://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/openfoam-installation/182250-something-wrong-allwmake.html#post632467
- Need to revise root exiting instructions, so that they are perfectly clear that "you should exit!".

- This doesn't solve it:
Quick hack:

- swak4Foam bugs:
- Typo: "If you use aggessive optimization (O3 or so) and experience strange crahes while running with grovvyBC etc set SWAK_COMPILE_LEXER_OPTION to something like -O1"
- Dependency problem in swakLagrangianParser:

- Strange bug in CMake... I think I got it in the past, but not sure how I solved it...
- Mental note: there is no hurry, since the forum member skipped to OpenFOAM 2.3.0 and is happily using it.

- Have to compare issue with this one: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/openfoam-installation/135658-openfoam-2-3-0-installation-rhel-5-a.html#post495262
- Running in parallel with the alias "of*" will not work properly, at least not if foamJob is used. Need to rely on the "prefs.sh" file instead, possibly for the local user.
- Example: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/openfoam-installation/136477-inconsistency-detected-ld-so-2-3-0-ubuntu-14-04-a.html#post495126
- Still need to think what could be done here... although I don't even know how to reproduce the error :(
- Seems to be related to a problem for when we want to run in parallel, because FOAM_SETTINGS is not propagating to foamExec
