OOMMF 2.1
Alpha release of OOMMF 2.1
This is the latest alpha release of the OOMMF micromagnetic software. Be advised that this is a development release, and is likely to have more bugs and deficiencies than the stable releases (which are themselves designed to be research code).
We are maintaining a bibliography of papers using OOMMF. If you publish results using this software, we would appreciate an email with the citation, so we can include it in our list.
Be sure to retain the directory structure when unpacking. Then check the README file in the oommf subdirectory, and the online documentation and quickstart pages. If you have questions, please contact michael.donahue@nist.gov.
OOMMF requires C++11 and Tcl/Tk 8.5 (or later). The C++ requirement is met by GNU g++ 4.7, or recent releases of any of the other popular C++ compilers. For Tcl/Tk we recommend the latest stable (i.e., not alpha or beta) release concurrent with your release of OOMMF unless otherwise noted. OOMMF software does not support any alpha or beta releases of Tcl/Tk, and each release of OOMMF may not work with later releases of Tcl/Tk. Check the release dates of both OOMMF and Tcl/Tk to ensure compatibility.
If you are using one of the pre-compiled binary releases of OOMMF, then the version of Tcl/Tk on your system must match the Tcl/Tk version against which the OOMMF binaries were built. For example, if you have Tcl/Tk 8.6.6 installed, then you should download the build of OOMMF for Tcl/Tk 8.6.x.
Extensions on the Oxs Extension Modules page that are included inside an OOMMF release are current at the date of release, but check the links on the extension page for documentation, news, and more recent updates to the extensions.
Mac OSX users: The version of Tcl/Tk (8.5.9) that comes with macOS doesn't display Tk widgets properly in macOS Mojave (10.14) or later, as can be demonstrated with a simple Tcl script. To use OOMMF on recent releases of macOS you will need to install Tcl/Tk 8.6.9 or later from a third-party source such as MacPorts or HomeBrew, and then build and run OOMMF using that Tcl/Tk installation.
