Did you install the binary package? If yes, then you can either use FEniCS by clicking on the FEniCS icon in the Applications folder or start a terminal and run the following command: source /Applications/FEniCS.app/Contents/Resources/share/fenics/fenics.conf In both cases, you will have a terminal with environment variables set up to run FEniCS programs. If you want to use FEniCS in Eclipse, I assume that you must set the same environment variables as in fenics.conf inside Eclipse. These environment variables are listed next: FEniCS_RESOURCES=/Applications/FEniCS.app/Contents/Resources export PATH=$FEniCS_RESOURCES/bin:$PATH export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$FEniCS_RESOURCES/lib:$FEniCS_RESOURCES/lib/vtk-5.10:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH export PYTHONPATH=$FEniCS_RESOURCES/lib/python2.7/site-packages:$FEniCS_RESOURCES/lib/vtk-5.10:$PYTHONPATH export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$FEniCS_RESOURCES/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH export MANPATH=$FEniCS_RESOURCES/man:$FEniCS_RESOURCES/share/man:$MANPATH export BOOST_DIR=$FEniCS_RESOURCES export SWIG_LIB=$FEniCS_RESOURCES/share/swig/2.0.8 export CC=/usr/bin/gcc export CXX=/usr/bin/g++ export OPAL_PREFIX=$FEniCS_RESOURCES Johannes _______________________________________________ fenics-support mailing list [email protected] http://fenicsproject.org/mailman/listinfo/fenics-support
