CFD Online Discussion Forums - multidimensional Field<>

Hi Foamers,

is there an elegant way to declare multimedensional fields? Something similar to a multidimensional array e.g. scalar[n4][n3][n2][n1] my4DArray;

This implementation seems to works, but is really inelegant (please don't laugh to loud at this stupid solution):

Code:

Field <scalar>                              dummy1D(n1,scalar(0.0));

Field <Field <scalar> >                     dummy2D(n2,dummy1D);

Field <Field <Field <scalar> > >            dummy3D(n3,dummy2D);

Field <Field <Field <Field <scalar> > > >   my4DField(n4,dummy3D);

Furthermore there are dummies remaining and soiling the code. Do you have an idea, how n-dimensional fields should be defined?

Best regards,
illya
