Default problems with F_AREA

Hello, I have some problems when I'm using F_AREA macro. It returns a zero vector, and I don't understand why. I have a function which computes the cross-section area of a domain at a given x position, but my variable is always 0. I appreciate any help. Thanks, Bogdan

void computeCrossSectionArea(Domain*mixture, real x,real*totalArea){

/************************************************** ******************

** This function computes the cross-section area of a domanin at a

** given x.

**

************************************************** *******************/

Thread* face_thread;

Message("x= %f\n",x);

face_t face;

real xf[ND_ND],area[ND_ND];

int counter1=0;

*totalArea=0.0;

FILE * fp;

char filename[]="area_vectors.txt";

fp=fopen(filename,"a");

thread_loop_f(face_thread,mixture)

{

begin_f_loop_all(face,face_thread)

{

F_CENTROID(xf,face,face_thread);

if(equals6(xf[0],x)){

counter1++;

F_AREA(area,face,face_thread);

fprintf(fp,"at x= %f area[0] is %f, area[1] is %f and area[2] is %f\n",xf[0],area[0],area[1],area[2]);

*totalArea+=NV_MAG(area);

}

}

end_f_loop_all(face,face_thread)

}

Message("counter1 is %d\n",counter1);

fclose(fp); }

int equals (real d1, real d2, real delta) {

if ( fabs(d1-d2) < delta )

return 1 ;

return 0 ; }

int equals6 ( real d1, real d2) {

return equals( d1,d2,0.000001); }
