CFD Online Discussion Forums - surfaceVectorField

Hi everyone

I need to create a surfaceVectorField and what i do in my code is:

Code:

forAll(mesh_.boundary(),patchI)

{

      scalarField wallStress = mag(- (nut_.boundaryField()[patchI] + nu()) * mesh_.Sf().boundaryField()[patchI] ^ 

                   ((uGrad ^ mesh_.Sf().boundaryField()[patchI])

                    / mesh_.magSf().boundaryField()[patchI]) / mesh_.magSf().boundaryField()[patchI]); // tau (value)



      surfaceVectorField wallStress1 = - (nut_.boundaryField()[patchI] + nu()) * mesh_.Sf().boundaryField()[patchI] ^ 

                   (uGrad ^ mesh_.Sf().boundaryField()[patchI]); // tau (value)

}

wallStress works fine but when i add surfaceVectorField wallStress1, when i compile it i get this error:

Code:

make: *** [Make/linux64GccDPOpt/kOmegaWilcox2006.o] Error 1

Does anyone know how to correct this????

thanks
