Mark Olesen 5f811ac09d STYLE: confusing wm32, wm64 aliases (issue #364)
- wm32/wm64 were for changing between -m32, -m64 builds on x86_64
  architectures. This is seldom enough not to warrant a special alias.
  Also ambiguous if these could refer to label sizes.

- Remove wm32,wm64 aliases.
- Add wmInt32, wmInt64 aliases for switching WM_LABEL_SIZE.

OpenFOAM Configuration

The main OpenFOAM settings are located in the parent etc/ directory. The bash and csh shells are supported and to configure OpenFOAM source etc/bashrc or etc/cshrc respectively which source the following files in the config.sh or config.csh respectively:

  • settings: core settings
  • aliases: aliases for interactive shells
  • unset: sourced to clear as many OpenFOAM environment settings as possible
  • mpi: MPI communications library settings
  • ensight: application settings for EnSight
  • paraview: application settings for ParaView
  • scotch: application settings for compiling against scotch
  • metis: application settings for compiling against metis 5

The config.*/example directories contains various example configuration files for the corresponding shell:

  • compiler: an example of fine tuning ThirdParty compiler settings
  • openmpi: an example of fine tuning openmpi settings for OpenFOAM
  • paraview: an example of chaining to the standard config/paraview with a different ParaView_VERSION
  • prefs: an example of supplying alternative site-defined settings
