Force use of boundary conditions

akidess · October 10, 2012, 07:57

I have a coupled solver that ensures the use of a mixed boundary condition at a specific patch as:

Code:

field().boundaryField()[bPatchID()].type()
              == mixedFvPatchField<scalar>::typeName

This works really nicely if I just want to allow strictly a mixed boundary condition, but it shuts out derived boundary conditions such as groovyBC. Anyone know how to check for the base class?

I think I found my answer: isA<mixedFvPatchScalarField>(field().boundaryField ()[bPatchID()])
