OpenFOAM class declaration error with volScalarField
3 Attachment(s)
Hi everyone,
I am currently using OpenFOAM v1706.
I am trying to declare a class with the internal field of a volScalarField object and a volVectorField object. During class instantiation, I simply want them to be initialized with a uniform zero value. Even though I have copied the constructors used in other OpenFOAM libraries, I am not able to make them work.
Here is the code definition for the volScalarField object.
In .H file, the variable is defined as:
Code:
volScalarField::Internal alphaSource_;
Class instantiation in the .C file uses the following code:
Code:
alphaSource_
(
IOobject
(
"alphaSource",
mesh_.time().timeName(),
mesh_
),
mesh_,
dimensionedScalar("zero", dimVol, 0)
)
I have attached the error log, but I believe the main error is the following:

Any help would be much appreciated. I have always come across some or the other error in instantiating a volScalarField object in a class but every time I have used a workaround. Don't want to keep ignoring this forever. |
