Re: FindNETGEN rework

It's true only if package provides version information somehow, e.g. via pkg-config Ok, on debian based systems, you can query version information for each officially installed package with dpkg: dpkg -l | grep <package-name> A complete commandline to get the version of developer library of i.e. li...

Re: FindNETGEN rework

List of netgen packages without release-filter newest netgen from sid (currently 4.9.13) ... and perhaps the most interesting part: debian patches for netgen integration into debian standards The debian-subdirectory contains a directory called patches - and that contains the meat :) I like the idea...

Re: Exporting to STL for 3D printing

Hi, you have to take into account, that FreeCAD exports only selected parts. So look at your object browser and select all parts, that make up your solid - selected parts show up in light green. When your whole part is green, you probably have all relevant parts selected. But be careful, not to sele...

Re: FindNETGEN rework

Hi, very nice work. I realized, that you partly already used the "new" library names. Just for completeness: general produces libgen.so linalg produces libla.so meshing produces libmesh.so visualization produces libvisual.so stlgeom produces libstl.so Additionally I had a look at the patch...

Can I add those options to the linking stage of fcs netgen-plugin?
Setting CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS changes build-process of the whole project.

Could I add those options to just the netgen-plugin?

Re: netgen - risks and chances

This statement is valid vor 4.9.13. I see I came to the point, that FreeCAD currently only works with the 4.9.13-library. I actually had a look at fcs netgen plugin - its from salome and looks quite a bit outdated :O In some cases, if you need a mesh for a complicated part, I would try to use the G...

netgen - risks and chances

Hi, on my way to build an fc-version with netgen support, I run into nealy every pitfall existing - and no matter what I tried, I did not succeed to build a fc with netgen support. Well, the build works, but problems arise at runtime. (may be I have to dive into FCs netgen part :O ) So I crawled dow...

Re: need a helping hand to setup fem on debian jessie

Netgen itself does not work on debian Jessie, at least with graphic output. Well, the executable from latest sf.net snapshot does work. Gui comes up and I can load a step-file and start meshing ... Loading a stl-file will crash, but IGES and STEP seems to work. OK, I did not wait for meshing to fin...

Re: Why doesn't FreeCAD respond in real time?

Hello, there are 3 FreeCAD.Console.PrintMessage(...) calls - we should not confuse. Also the talking about subprocess might be source of confusion too, as execution of the macro might be a subprocess too (but I don't know that). To clarify what I'm talking about - here's a code fragment of gmsh.FCMa...
