Comment thread
henningjp marked this conversation as resolved.

> **NOTE:**
> Specifying the Mathcad Prime root directory is optional. CMake will attempt to find the most recent version of Mathcad Prime on the system and use that one to link the Mathcad Prime library and header file. If a valid Mathcad Prime installation directory cannot be found, or you want to specify an older version on the system to link to, then supply the ``-DIF97_PRIME_ROOT`` flag as directed above.

Make the Build for Legacy Mathcad 15 (Discontinued by PTC)
----------------------------------------------------------

* Go to the top level IF97 directory and make a build directory (something like \build15):

```bash
mkdir build15
cd build15
```

* Build the makefile using CMake (Note: Mathcad 15 is 32-bit)::

```cmake
cmake .. -DIF97_MATHCAD15_MODULE=ON
-DIF97_MATHCAD15_ROOT="C:/Program Files (x86)/Mathcad/Mathcad 15"
-G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A Win32
-DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON

> Insert your version of Visual Studio for the -G option.
> Legacy Mathcad was 32-bit and requires a 32-bit add-in DLL.
> Prior to VS2017, use something like `-G "Visual Studio 14 2015` as 32-bit was the default.
```

- Insert your version of Visual Studio for the -G option.
- Legacy Mathcad was 32-bit and requires a 32-bit add-in DLL.
- Prior to VS2017, use something like `-G "Visual Studio 14 2015` as 32-bit was the default.

==============
The Mathcad wrapper code uses the ``REGION3_ITERATE`` flag to provide more accurate (but slightly slower) calculation of density in Region 3 (mostly super-critical), but does **_not_** use the ``IAPWS_UNITS`` flag by default, leaving all input/output values in SI units.

The `IAPWS_UNITS` flag can be set (uncommented) in the top of the IF97.cpp file to input and output IAPWS units (Pressures in MPa and energy in kJ) for easy comparison with IAPWS release documents.
