Adding Code to OpenSees

[faraklit]

Hi,
I am trying to add new code to OpenSees and following the procedures described in youtube:

However, it does not work. I don't understand, why?
Is it because the current version of OpenSees?
How can I add new code?

Thanks...

I had the same problem.
There was a link error when compiling, which I did not have before.
LINK:fatal error LNK1123: failure during conversion to CoFF: file invalid or corrupt

This is my solution:
1. for the link error: I just followed some instruction online: right click the project, select property/linker, and set the "Enable incremental Linking" to NO. This helped finishing the compiling and get the .dll.
2. change all Activetcl and opensees.exe to 32 bit version. Then the .dll should work.

P.S. I still do not have any idea why there is a link error while I did not have before following the same procedure.

Thank you for your help Sissy...
32 bit version worked.

Hi,
Now I am trying to do same procedure in linux computer.
I can run OpenSees in linux, but I can not add new code.
I typed 'make' in DEVELOPER/element/cpp folder, the file .o and .so was created.
However, opensees is still giving same results that Truss2D is unknown.
Why does it appear?
Thanks for your help.
