It really depends on what you want to do: do you want to read the mesh from a file, or do you want to link Gmsh in your code as a library? In the first case, just select a mesh format you like and write a small file reader. For the ".msh" format a C++ example is located (in the source code) in utils/misc/mshsort.cpp and a Matlab example in utils/converters/matlab. In the second case, you need to build Gmsh as a library (make lib) and link it with your own solver. Then you can directly use Gmsh's internal API to make queries (see e.g. utils/misc/driver.cpp). > > I checked the manual, there are some tips in the manual already but I > did not want to start coding right away, perhaps someone(or another open > source code) has done this before and shared the codes as well(hopefully). > > Best wishes, > > -- > U.T. > -- > There are some things which cannot > be learned quickly, and time, which is all we have, > must be paid heavily for their acquiring. > They are the very simplest things, > and because it takes a man's life to know them > the little new that each man gets from life > is very costly and the only heritage he has to leave. > - Ernest Hemingway > > > _______________________________________________ > gmsh mailing list > [email protected] > http://www.geuz.org/mailman/listinfo/gmsh > > -- Prof. Christophe Geuzaine University of Liege, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science http://www.montefiore.ulg.ac.be/~geuzaine _______________________________________________ gmsh mailing list [email protected] http://www.geuz.org/mailman/listinfo/gmsh
