Hi,
I'm new in this Forum and hope I've chosen the right topic.
I've recently started programming in C++, because I have to use some program-packages from channelflow.org, that are written in that language.
I was able to install the editor Eclipse (which I've used for other languages before) on Linux. I have to admit, that OS is also new to me.
I have installed all the packages I need from the mentioned website, and I am able to compile C++ programs.
That is how far I got. In the next step I was going to test if the packages are all installed properly. That is why I was going to write a simple program, which uses any of the functions of the packages.
I was going to use an example program, that came along with all the packages. Here is the beginning of it:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
|
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <sstream>
#include <iomanip>
#include "channelflow/flowfield.h"
#include "channelflow/periodicfunc.h"
#include "channelflow/dns.h"
#include "channelflow/utilfuncs.h"
using namespace std;
using namespace channelflow;
int main()
|
I was going just to include one of the headers, for example
dns.h
I tried to do that by writing it's path fully:
#include "/home/damien/channelflow-1.4.2/channelflow/dns.h"
After trying to compile that, Eclipse says:
"The program file specified in the launch configuration does not exist
/home/damien/workspace_damien/Test2/Debug/Test2 not found2"
I know it's possible to include new paths to the search directories, but I dont't see, why my solution does not work, I have found examples in which headers are found just that way.
I also tried it by copying all files with the name dns and all different endings into the directory, where my program is and then just to use
#include "dns.h"
but that doesn't work either.
Am I doing it all wrong, or is there perhaps a simple failure in my syntax?
I would appreciate, if anyone could help me, I've been searching for an answer in the web and some tutorials for quite a while now.
Thanks,
Baerfolg
