ImportError: No module named AirQuick.general.generalMath

Hi

Googling for an open source nastran parser ended up finding this
group. It seems you have put a great effort on pyNastran.

Here is an obstacle i have faced while trying to get used to
pyNastran.

I tried to test my bdf file like this:

code:
python test_helper.py my-bdf-file.bdf

It breaks giving an error about a library:
AirQuick.general.generalMath

I was not successful to find it anywhere. What am i doing wrong?

Hi Gokhan,

The short version is I just found a bug in the code, really it was you
:), but it's easy to fix. The long version is the code came from a
bigger project and I didn't realize it was still being referenced.
Basically you just need to change AirQuick to pyNastran, or just
replace the file.

If you drop replace this file with the old one, it should work just fine.
It goes in:

pyNastran/bdf/cards/elements.py

Sorry about the bug,

Steve

Without debugging projects never finish, do they?

thanx for the light-fast response... i'll keep looking around the
code, and inform you in case i find more.

Anyway, great job.

thanks :)

yea...I'm fully aware there are bugs in the code. It's just too big
for there to not be. For example, I recently found some bugs in the
CELASx cards and the PCOMP thickness method (the mass works though),
but I figure people can wait a few weeks for the next update. To some
extent, I'm relying on an user base to supply me with buggy models.

Let me know if you have any questions about using the code or if you
have ideas for new features/new cards. I'd like to support what
people are interested in and any feedback is appreciated.

Steve
