Dear Friends
I have a problem in defining PtrList<volScalarField> in KinematicCloudI.H and KinematicCloud.H.

When I define Yi() in KinematicCloudI.H as below

template<class CloudType>
inline Foam::PtrList<Foam::volScalarField>& Foam::KinematicCloud<CloudType>::Yi() const
{
    return Yi_;
}

And in KinematicCloud.H as below;

inline const Foam::PtrList<Foam::volScalarField>& Yi() const;

I get below errors;

lnInclude/KinematicCloudI.H:123:45: error: prototype for ‘Foam::PtrList<Foam::GeometricField<double, Foam::fvPatchField, Foam::volMesh> >& Foam::KinematicCloud<CloudType>::Yi() const’ does not match any in class ‘Foam::KinematicCloud<CloudType>’
 inline Foam::PtrList<Foam::volScalarField>& Foam::KinematicCloud<CloudType>::Yi() const
                                             ^

                                                                  ^

lnInclude/KinematicCloudI.H:136:1: error: ‘PtrList’ does not name a type
 PtrList<volScalarField>& Y

Could you please tell me what is my problem?

Dear Friends
I have solved above error using below piece of codes;

in KinematicCloudI.H as below

template<class CloudType>
inline const Foam::PtrList<Foam::volScalarField>& Foam::KinematicCloud<CloudType>::Yi() const
{
    return Yi_;
}

And in KinematicCloud.H as below;

 inline const PtrList<volScalarField>& Yi() const;

Now, another error happened in the KinematicParcelTrackingDataI.H as below;

./../../../../src/lagrangian/intermediateBFD/lnInclude/KinematicParcelTrackingDataI.H:63:9: error: no matching function for call to ‘Foam::interpolation<double>::New(const Foam::dictionary&, const Foam::PtrList<Foam::GeometricField<double, Foam::fvPatchField, Foam::volMesh> >&)’

the code lines in KinematicParcelTrackingDataI.H are:

YiInterp_
    (
        interpolation<scalar>::New              
        (
            cloud.solution().interpolationSchemes(),
            cloud.Yi()
        )
    ),

Now, the question is where should I add PtrList?
