If Visual Studio is not a requirement in Windowsĭevelopment, CMake is adequate. See Visual Studio Solution for Windowsįor more information. Giving Windows developers another option for writing code, compilingĪnd debugging in a streamlined manner. Is not well supported, so OpenFAST maintains a Visual Studio Solution Currently,ĬMake support for Visual Studio while doing active development To compile from source code, the NREL OpenFAST team has developed anĪpproach that uses CMake to generate build files for all platforms. The zipped file contains the following items:Ĭontroller library for NREL 5MW - ITI BargeĬontroller library for NREL 5MW - OC3 HywindĪfter extracting the contents, the OpenFAST executablesĬan be tested by opening a command prompt, moving into the directoryĬontaining the executables, and running a simple test command: The two assets named “Source code” are not needed. The OpenFAST executables can be downloaded from the “Assets” dropdown Installing the libraries in order for the changes to take effect.Īdmin privileges are required to install the Intel libraries. If you have a Command Prompt open, you will need to close it after Libraries, download the installers from the bottom of Not by default included with the binaries. The precompiled binaries require either the Intel FortranĬompiler or the Intel MKL redistributable libraries, which are
