Compilation fail with dealii 8.5.0 from Docker

[Ashkan Dorostkar]

Hi all,

I tried to compile my application with the new dealii 8.5.0 but it fails.

In my program I user distributed triangulation and I get the error

error: no matching function for call to ‘dealii::parallel::distributed::Triangulation<2>::Triangulation(ompi_communicator_t*&, dealii::Triangulation<2, 2>::MeshSmoothing)’

Is there any changes that I have to do? From the documentation I see that this is still available. Also the same code is compiling fine with version 8.4.2

Best,

Ashkan

Ashkan,

That sounds strange. As far as I know, the constructor of ‘dealii::parallel::distributed::Triangulation' didn't change.
Can you provide us with a minimal example showing that problem? Does this issue also appear with a recent developer version?

Best,
Daniel

I have attached the CMake file and the source file. This is as minimal as I can make it. The complete error is as follows

/home/dealii/app/mock/step-3.cc: In constructor ‘Test::mock::mock()’:

Dear Ashkan,

the error message pops up from line 1043, which is the case when your deal.II configuration does not have P4EST. This is the same code as in 8.4.0. It seems that your deal.II configuration misses to find P4EST, i.e., DEAL_II_WITH_P4EST is off with the 8.5 version. Can you check in the detailed.log file in your deal.II build directory whether something has changed?

Best,
Martin

I don't have a dealii build directory. I tried using the docker image. However I see that p4est is installed.

In the container if I do 

env | grep DIR

I get the following

P4EST_DIR=/home/dealii/libs/p4est-1.1

HDF5_DIR=/home/dealii/libs/hdf5-1.10.0-patch1

I let someone else comment on the docker configuration and why that did happen, but I am pretty sure that you have DEAL_II_WITH_P4EST commented out (=disabled) in your DEAL_II_INSTALL_DIR/include/deal.II/base/config.h which indicates that it was eventually not enabled.

Best,
Martin

What image are you using?

Try with

dealii/dealii:v8.5.0-gcc-mpi-fulldepscandi-debugrelease

my guess is that you are using

dealii/dealii:v8.5.0-gcc-mpi-fulldepsmanual-debugrelease

a bug with that image was reported by Timo, and I thought I had removed it from the image list…
