Open binary postprocess information automatically

Post by mvscheven »

Hi,

when changing to postprocessing, GiD tries to find and open the postprocess information for the current project. But only the *.post.res file is considered. I am using binary format in a *.post.bin file and get an error message:

Results file ...\...\...\Platte.gid\Platte.post.res' not found
No results read.

Is there a way to open the binary file also automatically?

Regards
Malte

To be opened automatically (when changing from pre to post) the GiD results file must be named <modelname>.post.res
It doesn't matter if the file is written in ASCII,binary or HDF5 format, the extension '.post.res' must be the same.

Thank you for the reply!

We have no changed the extension of he binmary output file to *.post.res, but still it does not work:

The output file <modelname>.post.res exists inside the GiD project directory and when I toggle to postprocess I get the following outoput in GiD:

Code: Select all

Initializing postprocess...
0 volume mesh and 1 surface mesh read using Layers.
Reading 'GiD_Scheibe.post' Postprocess information
Postprocess ready.
But still in the "View Results" menu it says "Please load a Model first".
If I open the output file manually in the postprocess mode it works fine.

Hi,
we've found the problem and corrected it for the next version, to be released very soon!

The problem was that the mesh in the binary file was defined inside a group and gid mistook this as an error when changing from preprocess to postprocess, but not when opening the file from the file menu.
Now it's correctly read.

thanks for the report,
best regards
