Compiling User defined solver

Post by hisham.noaman »

Hi All

i am using Elmer and i want to defined a user defined solver, so i just wrote the code in fortran and compile it with the compiler wrapper provided by Elmer, using elmerf90 mysolver.f90 -o mysolver, but the problem is that i want to link another library to the user defined solver. In other program written using Fortran, i just link it when i build the code using cmake, the cmake file as follows

find_package(precice REQUIRED CONFIG)

add_executable(solverdummy solverdummy.f90)

So my preinstalled library precice is linked to the fortran executable, so i want to link the User defined solver with this precice library but i do not have access to the wrapper script to modify it. So how to do that. Thanks in advance.

In fortran if you want to compile several programs into one exectuable you list them all

elmerf90 proga.f90 progb.f90 progc.f90 -o myprog

if the other programs(libraries) are compiled objects then provide the compiled object files

elmerf90 proga.f90 -o myprog progb.o progc.o

if they are compiled libraries then

elmerf90 -o output mainprogram.f90 libABC.a
