Re: [TRNSYS-users] Creating a New Component

[David BRADLEY <d.bradley@tess-inc.com>]

Ali,
  There is no need to create an .exe. Your compiler project should be set up to create a .dll containing only your Type. TRNExe.exe calls the TRNDll.dll and the TRNDll.dll will call your *.dll. If you are using a different Fortran compiler than the Intel compiler then instead of getting access to the TRNSYS kernel functions through a USE statement (as is done in the Fortran template) you have to import them from the TRNDLL using a DLLIMPORT command. The method for using DLLIMPORT will depend upon your compiler.
kind regards,
 David

Dear All

 

I am trying to create a new component using the Silverfrost Plato Fortran compiler following the procedure in vol. 01 and 07 of the Trnsys documentation. I was not able to create either the .EXE or .DLL files for my component. Instead, I get the following error message:

 

Error 404 – Cannot find definition for MODULE TRNSYSCONTANTS

 

I’ll be grateful for any body who can provide me with some guidance.
