Sample time ranges

Pj. · May 21, 2013, 01:10

A very quick question. I want to use sample on my simulation only for time 30+.

The help says

Code:

-time <ranges>    comma-separated time ranges - eg, ':10,20,40-70,1000:'

I tried

Code:

sample -time 30-60

Code:

sample -time '30-60'

Code:

sample -time :30-60:

Code:

sample -time ':30-60:'

but i always get

Code:

Create time

rejected ill-formed or empty range: ERROR--> FOAM Warning : 
    From function Ostream& operator<<(Ostream&, const token&)
    in file db/IOstreams/token/tokenIO.C at line 95
    Error token



--> FOAM FATAL ERROR: 
No times selected

    From function sample
    in file db/Time/timeSelector.C at line 257.

FOAM exiting

Which is the correct syntax?

Probably you found out by yourself, but to complete the Thread:

Code:

sample -time '30:60'

should work.

How do you get the detailed help? Using

Code:

 sample -help

(in OF 2.2) I only get

Code:

Usage: sample [-latestTime] [-time ranges] [-parallel] [-constant] [-noZero] [-case dir] [-region name]  [-help] [-doc] [-srcDoc]

Best regards,
Hella
