Does not work for Julia 1.3 on Windows #10

Open samiit opened 4 years ago

samiit commented 4 years ago

I tried to install it on Windows 64 bit machine, using Julia 1.3 and it fails:

Error: Error building `CoolProp`:
ERROR: LoadError: ArgumentError: isdefined: too few arguments (expected 2)
Stacktrace:

Any way this can be solved?

Thanks in advance!

Make sure you are using CoolProp/CoolProp.jl not vimalaad/CoolProp.jl.

See this discourse thread and this pull request.

Thanks @cstook. I had followed the instruction (blindly) on the Readme of this repo.

I found the solution from your instructions on discourse thread. I will just write it here in case someone looks for a solution here (tried out on 1.3): Step 1: deleting .julia/dev/CoolProp and .julia/registries/* Step 2: On Julia REPL, get into the Pkg mode, by typing ] And then type the following:

dev https://github.com/CoolProp/CoolProp.jl.git
build CoolProp

Step 3: Try out CoolProp in Julia:

using CoolProp
PropsSI("D", "T", 300, "P", 101325, "Water")
PropsSI("Dmass", "T", 300, "P", 101325, "R125[0.7]&R32[0.3]")

This is in spite of the fact that the unit tests fail, which you can try on the Julia REPL, by getting into the Pkg mode, after typing ]:

test CoolProp

As of today, the test fails for critical calculations of a few fluids:
