[esp-r] Construction database - problem

[Sara Nikoofard]

Hi All, 

 

I am introducing my construction database instead of the default one for
simulations. Since my constructions are more than maximum allowable value
for the ESP-r, I got this message during simulation:

 

FAILURE: in ../../../databases/con_db_xml.a: 177

the no of composite constructions value (177) > allowable maximum 120!

Warning: Problem during reading of construction database.

 

I changed the MMLC dimension from 120 to 200 in /include/building.h file.
After compiling ESP-r I still had the error till I added the following line
to /esrucom/edatabase.F:

 

WRITE (*,*) MMLC, NMLC

 

After adding and deleting this line everything worked fine and warning
disappeared. But another problem popped up. Now, if I want to use the ESP-r
default construction file, the construction database in GUI interference
shows only squares nothing is there. If I click on those squares it reports
in text box what it is but it gives a warning: "corrected mlc". 

 

Now there are two questions:

 

1-      why ESP-r needed the trick to understand the real dimension of MMLC?

2-      How can I get back my database without reducing the MMLC dimension?
How can I have 200 spots for constructions and still see my default
construction database?

 

By the way my ESP-r is installed on KUBUNTU 8.10.

 

Thanks,
