Hi!

I would like to create an output file at my last time step. I wondered if an command similar to
Code:
    if (runTime.outputTime())
    {
          logFile << balbalbalblalba << endl;
    }
exist for the last time step ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Best regards,
Cyp

I believe you're looking for:

Code:
if (runTime.end())

Hi Marupio!

Thank you for your answer. I tried your suggestion but nothing is written inside my output file...

akidess will become famous soon enough
You could also put your write command behind the time loop:

Code:
while (runTime.run())
{
        [...]
}
logfile << STUFF;
Of course you will only be able to output variables that were defined outside the time loop brackets, e.g. in createFields.H.
