Compiling and linking your C++ source code

Sample postprocessing programs to perform commonly exercised tasks are presented in separate sections in this chapter. These and other C++ postprocessing programs must be compiled and linked using the make parameter when running the Abaqus execution procedure (see Making User-Defined Executables and Subroutines). To link properly, the programs cannot contain a C++ main routine. Instead, the programs must begin with a C++ function called ABQmain.

#include <odb_API.h>

int ABQmain(int argc, char **argv)
{
    //Insert user code here
    return 0
 }
