- export library path for gmp/mpfr from CGAL config files. This is required when non-system gmp/mpfr libraries are being used, but not using a ThirdParty compiler installation. - automatically handle lib/ vs lib64/ (eg, for central installations) for packages such as boost, CGAL, etc. While the ThirdParty compilation of these will normally land in lib64/, this may not be the case when they are supplied by another means. - reworked the handling of foamEtcFile and foamCleanPath for less clutter in the configuration files. Added the bin/tools/lib-dir script to handle logic that is too complex to easily manage in csh.
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
