Tetgen Plug-in install

Post by tcdonley »

Hello,
Is it possible to install the Tetgen Plug-in with an existing ElmerGUI binary, or is it necessary to compile a new Elmer binary which includes the plug-in? If recompiling Elmer is needed, is it also necessary to compile Tetgen, or can the Tetgen binary be utilised (such as the Debian package tetgen)?

I am running an old version of Elmer in the CAELinux2010 package, a new version on Windows, and a slightly old compiled version on Linux. I'm wondering if I can add the plug-in to any existing installs or if I need to build a new version. I have seen many helpful posts on this forum about how to compile with the plug-in, but I wasn't sure if this was the only method, or simply the best method.

Thank you in advance for your recommendations,

Tim D.
