- replace with an alternative workaround. Unset the _foamAddLib function prior to sourcing config.sh/CGAL: - LD_LIBRARY_PATH will not be adjusted. - cgal_version/boost_version variables will be retained. Note: for ThirdParty builds, it is important that the boost and CGAL paths are added into LD_LIBRARY_PATH even if before they are created. This ensures that the OpenFOAM environment is functional after the build. The '*-none' and '*-system' specifications can still be used to avoid setting them at all.
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 settingsaliases: aliases for interactive shellsunset: sourced to clear as many OpenFOAM environment settings as possiblempi: MPI communications library settingsensight: application settings for EnSightparaview: application settings for ParaViewscotch: application settings for compiling against scotchmetis: 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 settingsopenmpi: an example of fine tuning openmpi settings for OpenFOAMparaview: an example of chaining to the standard config/paraview with a different ParaView_VERSIONprefs: an example of supplying alternative site-defined settings
