[Gmsh] [SUSPICIOUS SENDER] Help on format ASCII 2

[michael.asam at infineon.com]

Hi Abdullah,

could it be that this error is caused due to the different line endings of windows and linux text files?
Linux uses just LF whereas windows uses CR+LF. See:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newline
The newline formats can be converted easily by e.g. the windows editor Notepad++ or by
the unix commands shown in the wikipedia article mentioned above.

Cheers,
Michael

Subject: [SUSPICIOUS SENDER] [Gmsh] Help on format ASCII 2

Hello,

I am a master level mechanical engineer using gmsh 3.0.6 GUI to build meshes for my CFD studies. I use the output of ASCII 2 as an input to matlab mesh reader function (which is a function of redbKIT library). My problem is when i save mesh files as .msh extension and ASCII 2 format, the matlab function does not read it. On the other hand when i generate exactly the same .msh file wih my linux computer it works.

The error of matlab function: Syntax error (no $Elements) in: geometry.msh

My -not working- msh file is generated in windows 10, it had the system default language as turkish, but my linux is in english. So i thought the problem may be related to the operating system generating/reading the files with different arrays or binaries of characters (because of language difference). So i changed my windows language as english but problem still exists.

Have you ever met with that problem before? If so, what can be the solution to it?
In theory, i have two same txt or msh files but one works the other one does not. What is their difference you think?


Thanks in advance
Kind Regards
