In creatFields.H i want to specify dimensions of a specific variable which i am getting from controlDict using lookupOrDefault. But i am unable to set proper dimensions to the variable. what i did is

dimensionedScalar heightOfOrigin
(
runTime.controlDict().lookup("heightOfOrigin"),
dimensionSet( 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0),
);

But it gives me error.

Please help me

Hi,

Since you are constructing dimensionedScalar, use one of the constructors of the class (http://foam.sourceforge.net/docs/cpp/a00525.html) instead random attempts to guess the syntax:

dimensionedScalar heightOfOrigin 
( 
"heightOfOrigin",
dimLength,
readScalar(runTime.controlDict().lookup("heightOfOrigin"))
);

so in controlDict you just put "heightOfOrigin 1.0;", or you can have default value:

dimensionedScalar heightOfOrigin 
( 
"heightOfOrigin",
dimLength,
runTime.controlDict().lookupOrDefault<scalar>("heightOfOrigin", 0.0)
);

or you can set dimensions in controlDict like "heightOfOrigin heightOfOrigin [ m ] 1.0" and use constructor from Istream like:

dimensionedScalar heightOfOrigin(runTime.controlDict().lookup("heightOfOrigin"));

Dear foamers,

We have a problem compiling a solver in v2006 that was previously compiled in v1806 version.

This is the problem shown:

createFields.H:247:1 warning 'Foam::dimensioned<Type>::dimensioned(Foam::Istream&) [with Type = double]' is depracted (declared at 7share/apps/OpenFOAM-v2006/src/OpenFOAM/lnInclude/dimensionedType.C:305): Since 2018-11 [-Wdeprecated-declarations] );

This problem is repeated some times and it is related with this code:

IOdictionary diffusionProperties
(
	IOobject
	(
		"diffusionProperties",
		runTime.constant(),
		mesh,
		IOobject::MUST_READ_IF_MODIFIED,
		IOobject::NO_WRITE
	)
);


Info<< "Reading diffusivity DX\n" << endl;
dimensionedScalar DX
(
	diffusionProperties.lookup("DX")
);

Thanks a lot,

[/CODE]

As the message states it is a deprecation, which means that it not a compilation error, but a suggestion. The message furthermore states "deprecated since 2018-11", which is a clear indication why it compiled without warnings in v1806 but now starts emitting warnings with a new version.


From the docs (https://www.openfoam.com/documentati...d.html#details) it states

Deprecated(2018-11) Construct from Istream with given name (expects dimensions, value)
Deprecated:(2018-11) - should generally use construct from dictionary or primitiveEntry instead (additional checks on the input stream).

Which further information should we provide???

Thanks olesen for your quick reply. I thought it was wrong in my code so it is enough to know that it is just a suggestion.
