Hy guys,
I am new to OpenFoam and C++,

I have to make an inlet patch for a semicircle section of an inside pipe. The semicircle pipe is comprised out of 4 blocks and it can be seen in the picture below with the chosen numbers. The problem is when I try to write them I do not know why is giving me the error that it can find neighbor cell faces.

Here is the code. Can you help me out please?

Please attach an image of the blocks you are trying to build, as well as the error that is outputted

I managed to solve the error. It was a typo in my code. Please close this thread.
