| Summary | 0000668: runApplication does not pass on vectors correctly | ||||
| Description | When I run the following from the command line (bash): . $WM_PROJECT_DIR/bin/tools/RunFunctions runApplication surfaceTransformPoints -translate "(0 0 1)" file1.stl file2.stl I get an error in log.surfaceTransformPoints: --> FOAM FATAL ERROR: Wrong number of arguments, expected 2 found 4 FOAM exiting However, running: surfaceTransformPoints -translate "(0 0 1)" file1.stl file2.stl runs fine. Somehow the runApplication script does not pass on the vector correctly. | ||||

I found this issue sometime ago as well and ended up ignoring it because I couldn't find a fix for it... Nonetheless, today I think I found it: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4824590/propagate-all-arguments-in-a-bash-shell-script Basically, edit the file "$WM_PROJECT_DIR/bin/tools/RunFunctions" and replace the occurrences of: $* for: "$@" And it should work next time the script is sourced again! I also found a good explanation on this subject ($* vs $@) here: http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/scripting/posparams#mass_usage |
