range-software / range3 Goto Github PK

The software is very impressive. A great effort! I would like to see many uses the software. I would like to use it. However, I could not find user guide or developer manual in the Range software web page or in github. I also could not register as a user in https://www.range-software.com/.

Hi,

I find a typo in scripts/prereqs_mac.sh which can cause build error.

if [[ ! -x /usr/local/opt/llvm/bin/clang ]]; then
    echo_i "Installing llvm/clang"
    packagesToInstall+="llvm libopm"
fi

it should be libomp not libopm.

I don't wanna make a pull request for it is a tiny change.

I am trying to build the project using Qt Creator IDE, because I wanted to study the source code of the project. However, I get the error:

no matching function call to QList<unsigned int>::erase(QList<unsigned int>::const_iterator in file range/RangeModel/src/rml_model.cpp at 4663:25. Could it be that Qt Creator is using Qt5 library? I am not very familiar with Qt, so, any help is seriously appreciated.

Is it even possible because I tried using Ubuntu and I tried it in Windows 11? The Qt Creator doesn't seem to find all the libraries. I tried using Qt 6.4.3. Should I use a different version?

Hi,

Range looks great! I'm interested in checking out this software as an alternative to Comsol for my simple uses. I could set up a Fedora VM, but I'd like to just build and run it natively on my Mac. Do you know of any showstoppers I'm likely to run into if I port it?

The first one I hit should be simple to fix:

readlink: illegal option -- f

where I'll probably just replace readlink with realpath, but if there are any large known issues, I'll just set up a VM instead.

Thanks!
