3.1.3. Syntax of CFX Resource Configuration Files

Ansys CFX resource configuration files should consist only of:

  • Lines beginning with # (which are comments).

  • Variable assignments such as: CFX5EDITOR="textedit"

The right hand side of an assignment may include references to previously assigned variables by prefixing the variable name with $; for example,

CFX5BROWSER="$CFX5EDITOR"

Note:  In previous releases of Ansys CFX, these files could contain arbitrary Bourne shell commands. These are no longer supported.


3.1.3.1. Resource Names

Ansys CFX software makes use of variable names that start with the following strings:

  • CFDS_

  • CFX_

  • CFX4

  • CFX5

  • CUE_

You must not set any variable of your own with a name beginning with these letters.
