where abaqus_dir is the name of the directory in which Abaqus is installed. To determine the location of abaqus_dir at your site, type abaqus whereami at an operating system prompt. The correct path to the Abaqus runtime libraries must be specified prior to starting the user application. The runtime library path is typically set using the system environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but the method used to set the path may vary depending on your operating system configuration. The ABQodb library and several utility libraries resolve all the functions available in the interface to the output database, as described in Link library location. At runtime these libraries depend on many of the underlying Abaqus libraries. As a result, if you do not define the correct runtime library path, your application will not run. | |||||||
