[Gmsh] Gmsh and MED-3.x

[jean pierre aubry]

hello

after the good news, the bad ones
i have just tried compiling the source with cmake and i get the
following error at an early stage

[ 24%] Building CXX object
CMakeFiles/gmsh.dir/Post/PViewDataGModelIO.cpp.o /dedalus/downloaded/gmsh-2.5.1-svn-20110921-source/Post/PViewDataGModelIO.cpp:
In member function ‘virtual bool
PViewDataGModel::writeMED(std::string)’: /dedalus/downloaded/gmsh-2.5.1-svn-20110921-source/Post/PViewDataGModelIO.cpp:673:28:
error: ‘meshname’ was not declared in this scope make[2]: ***
[CMakeFiles/gmsh.dir/Post/PViewDataGModelIO.cpp.o] Erreur 1 make[1]:
*** [CMakeFiles/gmsh.dir/all] Erreur 2 make: *** [all] Erreur 2

i must point point out that this is the first time i compile gmsh from
scartch and my experience in the matter is rather thin
