Receiving errors while building UDF, but it loads just fine

alinik · August 29, 2017, 13:18

Hi all,

I receive numerous errors when I compile and build my UDF codes but I have no problem loading them and using them.

Some of the errors are:

error: Domain undeclared (first use in this function)
error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
error: for each function it appears in.)

Why is that?

Thanks,
Ali

The error "Domain undeclared" means that you use the variable "Domain", but you did not declare this variable. Without seeing your code, I can not give more detailed information.

And when you load and use the udf anyway, you will get results for the most recent udf code that worked. So the code that you wrote, and the code that Fluent uses, will not be the same. Avoid this!
