I have a solver that compiles in OpenFOAM v1812 but I am trying to compile it in OpenFOAM v8 and it does not work. I wrote it to create a mesh using STL files. Any suggestions. Below you can find the compilation error and I also attached the tool. Thank you All the best.

Well, the error just says that g++ doesn't know where these files are located (and you can tell g++ where they are through the -I flag in your options file. In the EXE_INC, you could try to add the relevant directory, i.e. place -I$(LIB_SRC)/triSurface/triSurfaceFields on your last line and escape the line before with \ so that you have:

EXE_INC = \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/finiteVolume/lnInclude \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/meshTools/lnInclude \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/surfMesh/lnInclude \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/sampling/lnInclude \
    -I$(LIB_SRC)/triSurface/triSurfaceFields

I would have though the lnInclude of surfMesh would have taken care of that, but maybe something changed. There are small differences between ESI (v1812) and cfd-direct (v8), this might be one of them. I'm not familiar with v8 but the above may work

There is also a better place to post such questions here on the forum, if the above doesn't solve your issue, you probably get a response quite quickly there.
