Hi to everybody!
I'm trying to write a postprocessing utility that modify cell-by-cell the values of a volVectorField, like this:

forAll(ut,celli)
{
...operations...

ut[celli] += 2.0*ampU*cos(xdotk + phi)*sig;
}

where ampU, xdotk and phi are dimensionedScalar and sig a dimensionedVector.
When I compile it, wmake told me that it's wrong.
Maybe it's because ut[celli] is not the correct way to access to the cell-value of a volVectorField?
Please, help me!!!

I don't think that wmake had a problem. It probably was the compiler. But that's nitpicking.

The problem is that the result on the right hand side is a dimensionedVector while the cell value is a plain vector. So you'll have to use the value() method to get the vector out of the dimensionedVector

Thanks Bernhard, now it works. I'm new in OF and C++, so I'm still having difficulties in thinking in terms of classes and methods, my Fortran background makes me think in terms of vectors and functions!
I really need a paradigm-shift!!!
