Re: [TRNSYS-users] Creating new component



Janne,
  You do need to move the file to the ..\Trnsys17\UserLib\ReleaseDLLs\ directory.

  From what you describe, it sounds as though the error is in the code, not in the compiling. If there were a compiling (or more likely a linking error) then your component would generate an error. Instead it is generating values, but not the right ones. It is possible (and very helpful) to add the component to the TRNDll recompile project then to debug the entire simulation run from the compiler. This allows you to step one line at a time through the code and look at intermediate values. The procedure is laid out in the 07-Programmer's Guide.

  If that is too complicated, I would recommend that you create a few outputs in your Type that simply mirror the input and parameter values, then watch those and make sure you can simply pass data through your Type.

  Yes, it is possible to call a subroutine within your Type. Simply end it with RETURN though (not Return 1)
Kind regards,
 David

Hi,

I was able to make .dll file using TRNSYS manual example and what you told, but should I move that .dll file from ..\Trnsys17\Compilers\Ivf11x\MyType\Release to ..\Trnsys17\UserLib\ReleaseDLLs\?

Compiling didnt give any errors and allso TRNSYS does not give any errors for the simulation but that new component does not seem to work. I am using Equa + my own type to test it (like getting started manual does):
Equa: time*2
my own type: Out1=Inp1+Par1

Result is that every timestep Out1 = 0

Is there something else that I should do while compiling that file?

On another topic, is it possible to use own subroutine within Type?

Thanks,

Janne

Janne,
  The Intel compiler used to be able to convert a *.dsp file (which was the project format for Compaq's Fortran compiler) to its own *.sln format. It doesn't seem to be able to do so anymore. Open the ..\Trnsys17\Compilers\Ivf11x\Ivf11x.sln file. In it, there should be a MyType project. Right click that project and add the skeleton code that was created by the Studio.
Kind regards,
 David

Hi,

I am trying to create a new component by using Intel Visual Fortran Composer XE 2011 with Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. I followed the instructions described in Chapter 1.8 in the getting stated manual to generate the new component; however the project workspace generated by TRNSYS has an extension .dsp and I am unable to open this project file. When I try to open the .dsp file with Microsoft Visual Studio, I am asked if I want to convert the file into a Visual C++ project file, which generates a .ncb and a .vcproj files. When I try to build the project compailer creates .sln file and I obtain the following two errors(Build log as attachment file):
 
Error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol__DllMainCRTStartup@12
Fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

Is that compiler supposed to convert that .dsp file into visual C++ project? Could there be problems with some settings or that project file or am I perhaps doing something wrong?

Thank you,

Janne
