Dear @bjonkman and @jjonkman,
Recently, I have upgraded openfast from Version 3.0.0 to Version 3.4.1. Anything went well with Version 3.0.0. When I employed visual studio 2019 to compile openfast 3.4.1, I was told to upgrade “Windows SDK Version” to 10.0. I selected to upgrade. However, "Configuration Type" in “MAP_dll Property Pages ” was altered as “Static library (.lib)” automatically. Hence, when I rebuilt the solution, MAP_x64.dll did not generate. Other files could generated normally. I tried to change the "Configuration Type" as “Dynamic Library (.dll)” and then rebuilt the solution. MAP_x64.dll could generated normally while MAP_x64.lib was missing. As a result, error was reported as "Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State Error fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file '....\build\bin\MAP_x64.lib' LINK".
I came up a solution to this bug:
compile "MAP_dll" project alone to generate MAP_x64.dll by setting "Configuration Type" in “MAP_dll Property Pages ” as “Dynamic Library (.dll)”. build the whole solution (instead of “rebuild”) by setting "Configuration Type" in “MAP_dll Property Pages ”as “Static library (.lib)”. By doing this, all files including MAP_x64.dll and MAP_x64.lib can generate normally. But I do not know whether it has potential deficiencies. I have conducted a regression test the compiled program. 36 cases passed and 2 case failed.
@ietqlw , As of OpenFAST v3.1.0, the MAP library has been linked statically into the main OpenFAST executable, so there is no need for a separate MAP dll file. See https://github.com/OpenFAST/openfast/releases/tag/v3.1.0.
Also, as of OpenFAST v3.3.0, the testing system changed to use different criteria for passing. See https://github.com/OpenFAST/openfast/pull/1217 for details on this change, including default values for tolerances.
Regarding the two tests that are failing -- these tests both use AeroDyn 14 are unstable enough that they show slight variations depending on the system the are run on. We don't actually run either test in our automated testing because of this.
5MW_ITIBarge_DLL_WTurb_WavesIrr
-- We have removed it from our automated testing.SWRT_YFree_VS_WTurb
-- this test is also rather unstable and we will be removing it entirely from the test suite.Ok thanks, so can I consider that everything is working properly and I correctly did all the steps?
Hi, I'm having problems with the tests. I did everything explained in the section 3.2 of the OpenFAST Documentation (Release v3.2.0), but some tests failed. In particular I tried to typed python manualRegressionTest.py ..\build\bin\openfast_x64_Double.exe 1e-5 0.5e-5 but this was the result
Then I tried PS C:\OFNREL\openfast\reg_tests> python manualRegressionTest.py ..\build\bin\openfast_x64_Double.exe Intel 1e-5 0.5e-5 usage: manualRegressionTest.py [-h] [-p [Plotting-Flag]] [-n [No-Execution]] [-v [Verbose-Flag]] [-case [Case-Name]] [-module [Module-Name]] Executable-Name Relative-Tolerance Absolute-Tolerance manualRegressionTest.py: error: argument Relative-Tolerance: invalid float value: 'Intel'
Finally I tried changing the tolerance PS C:\OFNREL\openfast\reg_tests> python manualRegressionTest.py ..\build\bin\openfast_x64_Double.exe 1e-5 0.5e-4 and most of the tests succeded, but not all of them. How can I solve this issue?
