Downloading OpenTURNS

If you want to use OpenTURNS, we highly recommend you to pick up the lastest stable release. Download the file named openturns-setup-x.y.z.exe :

Installing

  • Run the executable openturns-setup-x.y.z.exe and follow instructions.
  • Read Readme.txt from OpenTURNS menu (start -> programs -> OpenTURNS -> Readme.txt).

Since openturns 1.0 :

  • Installation and uninstallation can be done in silent mode with the /S switch. E.g.: openturns-setup-x.y.exe /S
  • Installation directory can be specified with the /D switch. E.g.: openturns-setup-1.0.exe /S /D=C:\OpenTURNS1.0
  • Installation type can be forced with /userlevel switch. It permits too to avoid permission check. 0 means install OT for all users (needs admin rights), 1: install OT only for the current user. E.g.: openturns-setup-x.y.exe /userlevel=0

openturns-developers

Since OpenTURNS version 0.14, wrappers can be made entirely from python (i.e. without compiling them).
openturns-developers installer is now therefore useful only for advanced users that need to link against OpenTURNS lib or for custom wrapper (e.g. wrapper that has built-in C functions).

openturns-developers-x.y.z.exe installer is also available on  SourceForge. It provide a MinGW environment (compiler, DLLs) compatible with OpenTURNS lib. For further details have a look to openturns_developer_script.nsi file.

The  windows port guide explains to OpenTURNS developers how to cross compile OpenTURNS from Linux to Windows.
But the Open TURNS compilation examples chapter can be useful for advanced users that need to link wrapper or program against OpenTURNS lib.
