Dear fellow foamers,
I am relatively new in OpenFoam so I am not very familiar with this software.I have OpenFoam v2.0.1 and I would like to use an already working code from an older version of OpenFoam. The problem is that the old code used readSIMPLEcontrols.H, which my version does not have. I have tried to replace it with simpleControl.H, but still it doesn't work. Is there any idea how can I overcome this drawback? Thank you in advance for your time and interest


PS:I have attached the error message that I get when compiling:
[kmitafidisvlachakis@hpc11:fieldFoam]$ wclean

Normally you have to change the simpleControl.H with the readSimpleControl.H in the *.C file and be sure that he find that file in the Make/option file

PS: Maybe its possible that you have to update more files.
