Labview Wrapper¶
Pre-compiled Binaries for windows¶
Available libraries¶
CoolProp.vi
:
Basic Library to get the properties from CoolProp.dll
CoolProp.llb
:
More advanced library, allowing to compute thermodynamic diagrams, real-time calculation of properties,
measurement processing, etc. There is additional information
available for the use of the llb library
User-Compiled Binaries for windows¶
Check out the instructions to build your own shared library. It should be a __cdecl DLL for 32-bit windows.
User-Compiled Binaries for VxWorks (cRIO)¶
Once the toolchain is configured¶
To compile:
cmake ../.. -DCOOLPROP_VXWORKS_LIBRARY_MODULE=ON -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../../dev/cmake/Toolchains/powerpc-vxworks-crio.cmake -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-D__powerpc__"
Use pre-built toolchain from FirstForge¶
Instructions from http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/wiki/do/viewPage/projects.c–11_toochain/wiki/BinaryInstall
Debian GNU/Linux (Wheezy/Testing)
Note: Because of minimal dependencies this may work on other Debian based distributions (e.g. Ubuntu). This is, however, experimental.
This currently uses GCC 4.8.0 and Binutils 2.22-8 (default in debian testing).
Add this line to /etc/apt/sources.list to add the repository:
deb http://debian.repo.frc.s3.amazonaws.com jessie main
Add the maintainer key for the repository:
sudo wget http://debian.repo.frc.s3.amazonaws.com/rbmj.gpg.key
sudo apt-key add rbmj.gpg.key
Run the following commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gcc-powerpc-wrs-vxworks
Set the WIND_BASE environmental variable (or add to ~/.profile):
export WIND_BASE=/usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/wind_base
Building your own toolchain for VxWorks Target¶
Instructions from http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/wiki/do/viewPage/projects.c–11_toochain/wiki/ManualInstall
Generic Linux/UNIX
These are the instructions to build from source manually. Note that some lines begin with $ and some begin with #. Lines that start with a $ can be run as a regular user. Lines that start with # must be run as root (on most distributions, just prefix the command with ‘sudo’).
1: Download all the components:
$ wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/gcc-4.8.2/gcc-4.8.2.tar.bz2
$ wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/binutils/binutils-2.23.1.tar.bz2
$ wget ftp://ftp.ni.com/pub/devzone/tut/updated_vxworks63gccdist.zip
2: Set WIND_BASE:
# echo 'export WIND_BASE=/usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/wind_base' >> /etc/profile
$ source /etc/profile
3: Install the WindRiver headers and development resources:
$ unzip updated_vxworks63gccdist.zip
# mkdir -p /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/wind_base/target
# mkdir -p /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/share/ldscripts
# cp -R gccdist/WindRiver/vxworks-6.3/host /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/wind_base
# cp -R gccdist/WindRiver/vxworks-6.3/target/h/. /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/sys-include
# ln -fsT /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/sys-include/wrn/coreip /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/wind_base/target/h
# sed '/ENTRY(_start)/d' < /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/wind_base/target/h/tool/gnu/ldscripts/link.OUT > /usr/powerpc-wrs-vxworks/share/ldscripts/dkm.ld
4: extract binutils and gcc, and the dependency libraries:
$ tar -jxf gcc-4.8.2.tar.bz2
$ tar -jxf binutils-2.23.1.tar.bz2
$ cd gcc-4.8.0
$ ./contrib/download_prerequisites
$ cd ..
5: Build & install binutils:
$ mkdir binutils-build
$ cd binutils-build
$ ../binutils-2.23.1/configure --prefix=/usr --target=powerpc-wrs-vxworks --disable-nls
$ make -j4
# make install
$ cd ..
6: Build & install gcc:
$ mkdir gcc-build
$ cd gcc-build
$ ../gcc-4.8.2/configure \
--prefix=/usr \
--target=powerpc-wrs-vxworks \
--with-gnu-as \
--with-gnu-ld \
--with-headers \
--disable-shared \
--disable-libssp \
--disable-multilib \
--with-float=hard \
--enable-languages=c,c++ \
--enable-libstdcxx \
--enable-threads=vxworks \
--without-gconv \
--disable-libgomp \
--disable-nls \
--disable-libmudflap \
--with-cpu-PPC603 \
--disable-symvers \
CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET='-mstrict-align -mlongcall -g -O2' \
CXXFLAGS_FOR_TARGET='-mstrict-align -mlongcall -g -O2'
$ make -j4
# make install
