Cannot compile Tests with CoolProp - undeclared identifier '_fluidConstants' about externalmedia

[SpaceSapien]

I was with several hacks able to compile the libExternalMedialLib.a library file to compile. I however am getting the same errors as stated here. @slamer59 were you able to figure out how to fix these issues?

I don't see why it has problem with _fluidConstants.
The class CoolPropSolver should inherit it from the class BaseSolver as it is a protected variable there.

Oh, the current OM frontend fails to evaluate some constants involving redeclare or something like that and just pretends it has no value, failing during code compilation. The problem with the type of the pointer to the record probably needs to be resolved by the ExternalMedia function taking a void* and casting it afterwards (because it's not specified how to generate a unique name for the structs in Modelica); you probably want to verify that the structs both have the same fields in the same order though (or simply avoid passing records in Modelica external "C" interface since it never works the way you want it to).

[jowr]

Hould the void casting suggested by @sjoelund be implemented? Is this still one way to improve things?

All these issues should be fixed when using OMC 1.21.0 and ExternalMedia 3.3.2.
