Packages and Source code possible simultaneously?

Asked by janaka kumara

Hi,

I use now Yade 0.60 package version and want to check source code too. Is it possible to have both versions at the same time? If so, how to install source code, say, yade-0.60.3 release version? What all I have to do is to uncompresse yade-0.60.3.tar.bz2 and then compile tying scons PREFIX=/home/kumara/YADE?

If I compile properly, how to run source code version (how to type on terminal)?

Thank you,

Kumara

Yes, you can compile as much yade versions as you want!
This is simply done by compiling into different folders.
Example:

download YADE version x to folder /home/kumara/yade-source-x
download YADE version y to folder /home/kumara/yade-source-y

cd /home/kumara/yade-source-x
scons PREFIX=/home/kumara/YADE-X

cd /home/kumara/yade-source-y
scons PREFIX=/home/kumara/YADE-Y

After this you should have two executables
(/home/kumara/YADE-X/bin/yade-x and /home/kumara/YADE-Y/bin/yade-y).
If you want to run one of these you can execute in terminal by typing:

~/YADE-X/bin/yade-x

If you do not want to use such a long command, you can alias it in
your /home/kumura/.bashrc

Simply add this lines at the end of your .bashrc:

alias yade-x='/home/kumura/YADE-X/bin/yade-x'
alias yade-y='/home/kumura/YADE-Y/bin/yade-y'

Then restart your bash with . ~/.bashrc and then you can use these commands:

yade-x
yade-y

Regards,

Christian.

Thanks Christian,

This is what happened when I tried

Read error messages carefully, they are usefull in general. I see in
your output:

"Checking whether c++ compiler "g++" works...no
Your compiler is broken, no point in continuing.
sh: g++: not found "

You need a c++ compiler in order to compile some c++ code...
See installation instructions in the documentation, and especially
prerequisites: https://yade-dem.org/doc/installation.html#prerequisities

It seems, that a compiler is not installed.

> Your compiler is broken, no point in continuing.

I am not sure, but I think you need gcc for compiling...
If it is not installed, install it with: 'aptitude install gcc' or
'apt-get install gcc'

Thanks Jakob and Bruno,

Jakob, I think I got gcc installed properly (sudo apt-get install gcc) but there is no folder named "bin" as you said in /home/kumara/YADE-X/bin/yade-x. However, there is a folder named build-0.60.3 in /home/kumara (but not "bin" folder there as well). Do you think I need to do something else?

Bruno, since I already use Yade package (0.60) and I didn't have any problems with gcc, though I read that error message I didn't want to risk loosing exiting yade without knowing it well (I am not comfortable installing yade even after I use it for some times). In fact, that just now happened. Now, I cannot use yade 0.60 (which I used for few months).

Previously when I typed yade on terminal, I got it but today (after installed gcc), this is what i got

kumara@kumara-Latitude-E5510:~$ yade
Welcome to Yade 0.60
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/yade", line 105, in <module>

    self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
OSError: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Even I typed Yade 0.60 but nothing work. Do you think something wrong happened with gcc installation (you can see below)? Thanks much for your comments.

if you are not planning to hack the yade code, I would recommend you
to use pre-built versions of yade.
To install the stable 0.60.3 version, just follow the instruction from FAQ:

Thanks Bruno.

Sorry I am not too sure how to do but this is what I want to do with yade.

1. simulate triaxial tests with angular particles (until now I know only triaxial tests with spheres).
2. simulate triaxial tests for mixtures of different materials (e.g. gravel and sand) using psdSizes, psdCumm.

Can these two works be done with pre-built version? Maybe then I dont need to try with source code versions. I am really sorry, my knowledge on codes are poor yet.

The problem is, that your library is not in the right folder ...

> OSError: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No

You can create a symbolic link to avoid this error message:

ln -s /usr/local/lib/libstdc++.so.6 /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6

If libstdc++.so.6 is not in /usr/local/lib/ then please search for it
and create the symbolic link to this path.

Christian

P.S. There is no /home/kumara/YADE-X/bin/yade-x because compilation failed.

Hello, about your goals :

"1. simulate triaxial tests with angular particles (until now I know only triaxial tests with spheres).
2. simulate triaxial tests for mixtures of different materials (e.g. gravel and sand) using psdSizes, psdCumm."

For 1. angular discrete elements do not exist now in yade (box excepted, but they can only be used as boundaries). The solution is to use numerical samples of clusters = aggregates of spheres.

So, both for 1. and 2. I think that reaching your goals require only some special operations in the realisation of the numerical sample. Even if I never used clusters, I think that all what concerns this realisation can be performed through python interface.

To conclude, I think that yes you do not need really to have access to code and use source versions.

(But you still have the right to want to, for curiosity...)
