Hi,

I am trying to write a macro with eclipse.

my macro code has the following statements at the begining.

package macro;

import java.util.*;

import star.common.*;
import star.base.neo.*;
//when jar importing in eclipse, don't add star.meshing.jar cause star.base.jar will take care of it
//for report object
import star.base.report.*;

// turbulence
import star.turbulence.*;
import star.kwturb.*;

// flow
import star.flow.*;
import star.segregatedflow.*;

// material properties
import star.material.*;

// mesh
import star.resurfacer.*;
import star.trimmer.*;
import star.prismmesher.*;
import star.metrics.*;
import star.meshing.*;

also, *.jar required is specified in properties>Libraries>Modulepath as follows:
flow.jar
keturb.jar
kwturb.jar
lesturb.jar
material.jar
metrics.jar
prismmesher.jar
resurfacer.jar
rsturb.jar
saturb.jar
segregatedflow.jar
starbase.jar
trimmer.jar
turbulence.jar

However, code assist of the eclipse make the error, cannot be resolved t a type, for the following statements

        meshContinuum.getReferenceValues().get(BaseSize.class).setValue(10.0);

        MaximumCellSize maximumCellSize = meshContinuum.getReferenceValues().get(MaximumCellSize.class);
        GenericRelativeSize genericRelativeSize = ((GenericRelativeSize) maximumCellSize.getRelativeSize());

I found the MaximumCellSize, BaseSize is defined in meshing.jar and imported star.meshing.*. I don't have a cluse why it make the error.

Any comment will be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

First of all: You need to tell us which Version you're using. Because looking in my v12.06, I can't find a Maximum Cell Size option.
Second: You should import the jar files as described in the Users Guide. So you don't need to load every lib separately.

AFAI, the above macro is independant on which StarCCM+ version. but FYI, I have tested it in 11.06 and 12.06.
Once you have created mesh continuum with trimmer mesh, you can see Maximum Cell Size node.

In User guide (pp 6231), it advices to get every jar file in the ext directory and so did I.

FYI, without eclipse, I could succefully compile the above macro code with Makefile and javac and the same jar files. So what I wondering is why eclipse is complaining while there is nothing wrong.

Then maybe here isn't the right place to ask. I get no error using netbeans and your code from above.

And btw: 11.06 and 12.06 using different Java versions. Have you successfully integrated the libraries into your eclipse project?
