Hello,

I would like to compile and use the tool waves2FoamMooring provided within waves2Foam on OpenFoam1812 or OpenFoam 1912.

When I try to compile it i get the error below. It seems that the code is calling for a function "Xfer" and cannot find it.

I managed to compile this tool and use it on OF1712. Indeed, I found the function Xfer in the folder '/home/engineer/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-v1712/src/OpenFOAM/memory'

However this Xfer function disappeared in v1812 and v1912.


Does anyone know how to compile this mooring tool on the new OF versions ? Is there another function that could be used instead of 'Xfer' ? Or how I could compile the Xfer function ?

Thanks for your help.

Hi,


The syntax changed between versions, so I recommend that you dive into the code and make the necessary changes.



Kind regards

Hello Niels,


Thank you for answering.


I checked the v1912 Developer Upgrade Guide and it says that: "The pre-C++11 Xfer has now been removed. it was deprecated and slated for removal 2018-03."


I'm trying to fix the write1DFvMesh.C file, but apparently this Xfer funciton doesn't exist on OF-v1912 anymore, so I don't know what to do yet.




Best regards,
Carlos
