error compiling plugin_template_cpp

[Thomas Kolb]

Hi All,

I'm having some difficulties compiling the example plugin in share/hoomd/plugin_template_cpp.  I followed the README file there but keep getting the same error when I go to use ccmake (I installed hoomd in the environment 'myhoomd'):

plugin_build kolbt$ ccmake /Users/kolbt/miniconda3/envs/myhoomd/share/hoomd/plugin_template_cpp

This gives the following error:

CMake Error at FindHOOMD.cmake:90 (message):

   HOOMD Not found.  Please specify the location of your hoomd installation in

   HOOMD_ROOT

 Call Stack (most recent call first):

   CMakeLists.txt:5 (find_package)

 CMake Error at cppmodule/CMakeLists.txt:32 (fix_cudart_rpath):

   Unknown CMake command "fix_cudart_rpath".

When I go to specify HOOMD_ROOT, I write:

plugin_build kolbt$ ccmake /Users/kolbt/miniconda3/envs/myhoomd/share/hoomd/plugin_template_cpp  -DHOOMD_ROOT=/Users/kolbt/miniconda3/envs/myhoomd/bin/hoomd

And I get the same error out.  I'm running this on OS X v. 10.11.5.  I'm pretty new to hoomd (and scientific computing in general), so, any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Tom

If you are starting new hoomd extension development, my advice is to fork hoomd and add a new package on the master branch. This is easier than trying to build an independant plugin, and there are numerous examples from all of the packages already in the code.
