UDF problem/32 bit vs. 64 bit

February 21, 2008, 16:44

Hello all,

I was wondering if someone would know of a work around for a problem I am facing. I have a complicated UDF that I have been working with for some time now on a 32 bit machine and it works great. Now I am trying to compile this UDF on a 64 bit machine but to no avail. I even tried pulling over my old case/data files that have the compiled library with them but Fluent did not load the library on the 64 bit machine. Do I need to have a 64 bit version of Fluent installed? (I am working on Linux)

Thanks in advance

Andrew

you need to install the 64bit version of Fluent and compile the UDF in 64bit using the 64bit version of Fluent. You can also run the 32bit version on a 64bit machine.
