Description:
When I try to read surfaceFields_*.vtk files generated by foamToVTK -surfaceFields for 2D cases by ParaView it always fails with
Generic Warning: In /Volumes/RAID0data/paraview/ParaView3/VTK/IO/vtkDataReader.cxx, line 1363
Error reading binary data!
.

Solver/Application:
foamToVTK

Source file:
writeSurfFields.C

Testcase:
icoFoam/cavity or whatever

Version:
1.5

Notes:
Changing line 103 of writeSurfFields.C from
if (isA<emptyfvpatchvectorfield>(pf))
to
if (isA<emptyfvspatchvectorfield>(pf))
fixed the problem.

Takuya

Hi Mattijs,

happened to pull the latest git just now, and foamToVTK does not compile.

The change on line 103 in writeSurfaceFields.C
if (isA<emptyfvspatchvectorfield>(pf))
probably requires #include "emptyFvsPatchFields.H"

best regards
Niklas

Thanks. Should be ok now.
