[Scons-users] SCons for Ansys APDL Analysis

[Hubley, Christopher (GE Aerospace, US)]

Thanks!

I wasn't able to get the analysis to work without setting "duplicate=True".

However, when I do that SCons seems to want to recompile everything if I delete the duplicates.

Perhaps it's not working because I'm working in Windows/Cygwin. Our setup is a bit... specific.
Maybe Windows wants to generate .lnk files rather than softlinks, which might be preventing Ansys from seeing the files.

I'm not sure exactly how to debug things like that with SCons though...

Perhaps there are some options that I need to set to get it working.

Zeroing in just on this one piece: SCons has support for this via a concept called a "variant directory", which is a shadow of your source directory (created either using links/copies, or by doing beind the covers path fiddling, depending on options you select). You build in the variant directory, leaving the results there, if you selected the non-copying option, the sources won't be left there.
