Hello,

I'd like to create a list of volScalarField. I have made testListField.C but
the compilation results in an error at the line highlighted in red.
What's wrong with this?

#include "fvCFD.H"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
#include "setRootCase.H"
#include "createTime.H"
#include "createMesh.H"

  int N = 10; // size of the list
  List<volScalarField> X(N);

  Info<< "End\n" << endl;
  
  return(0);
}

Greetings Seiji,

I think this has been asked a few times in the past... here's one thread on this topic: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...alarfield.html

In essence, the problem is that you're trying to use the list as the traditional/simpler kind of lists in C++. But OpenFOAM uses a far more complex operator overload mechanisms, which leads you're attempt to fail.
As I wrote above, you can find more examples on the forum, if you search for:

List<volScalarField>

Best regards,
Bruno

Hello Bruno,

By referring to the thread you showed, this problem has been
solved. Thanks a lot!
