hi,

i used a modified sonicFoam solver with variable time steps in OpenFOAM 2.4.
I modified the solver following this tutorial and everything worked fine.
http://www.idurun.com/2008/06/13/run...p-in-openfoam/

I now updated to 4.0 and tried to use my old solver again, but i was not able to compile it. I then started from the standard sonicFOAM solver in 4.0 and added the lines as done before. Im not able to compile it and get the following errors:

My code looks the following (i added the red lines):

#include "pimpleControl.H"
#include "fvOptions.H"

}

rho = thermo.rho();

runTime.write();

}

I couldnt figure out whats wrong, has the naming mybe changed from OpenFOAM 2.4 to 4.0??

Thanks!

For future references:
you should include the following header after createMesh

    #include "createTimeControls.H"
