CoolProp, Is an open-source, cross-platform, reference-quality fluid property database that mirrors many of the functionalities of REFPROP. The codebase is written in C++ and wrappers are available for Python and C#. A DLL is also available for calling from other languages. It is currently the only open-source package that implements the extended corresponding states model for transport properties.
Yep, I saw that discussion. Still not entirely clear to me what needs to be done
before its ready to be registered. I want to know if there’s something I can do
to help.
In Julia 0.7, I had no problems with installing CoolProp, but in 1.0.1 I cannot make it work. This is the output when I do, in the REPL (see below), Pkg.Clone(“https://github.com/vimalaad/CoolProp.jl.git”)
Can you help?
Thanks!

If I use the standard route as above I now get errors during precompiling:

I also had difficulty installing CoolProp. Not the same error you have. After much trial and error, I think the following got it working for me.
delete all previous attempts to install
delete .julia/registries/General
dev https://github.com/CoolProp/CoolProp.jl.git
use git GUI to switch to origin/master branch and create tracking branch
]build CoolProp
using CoolProp
This still throws a warning about Libdl not being listed in CoopProp’s dependencies, but it runs anyway. It does not pass it’s own tests. ]test CoolProp fails, but the examples provided in the docstrings work.
I still get the same errors when typing “using CoolProp”. Adding and building goes fine. It is the precompiling of CoolProp where I get the error messages.
CoolProp/CoolProp.jl works for me. Ignore the readme which still directs to vimalaad/CoolProp.jl. vimalaad/CoolProp.jl has not been updated for three years.
