[ESPResSo-users] Bug in C++-code of LB-Algorithm (??)

[Wink, Markus]

Dear all,

 

I have downloaded Espresso version 3.3 from git://git.savannah.nongnu.org/espressomd.git. I have created a “test-binary” with the default myconfig header, which worked fine.

Now I wanted to create a binary to simulate a lattice Boltzmann fluid. I am able to run configure, but by typing make, I get the following error messages (no binary is produced):

 

/usr/local/src/espressomd/src/core/lb.cpp:100: error: conversion from 'Lattice*' to non-scalar type 'Lattice' requested

/usr/local/src/espressomd/src/core/lb.cpp: In function 'int lb_lbfluid_get_interpolated_velocity_global(double*, double*)':

/usr/local/src/espressomd/src/core/lb.cpp:1082: error: 'map_position_to_lattice_global' was not declared in this scope

 

The source code of lb.cpp looks like this (line 100):

 

            Lattice lblattice=new Lattice();

 

As far, as I understood, the command new is a language construct to dynamically allocate an array. So shouldn’t it be something like (I am not exactly sure)

Lattice *lblattice=new Lattice(); ?

 

In an older code, I found the line Lattice lblattice = { {0,0,0}, {0,0,0}, 0, 0, 0, 0, -1.0, -1.0, NULL, NULL }; instead. Replacing that line did not work with the newer code, the error message there is:

 

/usr/local/src/espressomd/src/core/lb.cpp:100: error: in C++98 'lblattice' must be initialized by constructor, not by '{...}'

/usr/local/src/espressomd/src/core/lb.cpp:100: warning: extended initializer lists only available with -std=c++0x or -std=gnu++0x

/usr/local/src/espressomd/src/core/lb.cpp:100: error: no matching function for call to 'Lattice::Lattice(<brace-enclosed initializer list>)'

/usr/local/src/espressomd/src/core/lattice.hpp:85: note: candidates are: Lattice::Lattice()

/usr/local/src/espressomd/src/core/lattice.hpp:53: note:                 Lattice::Lattice(const Lattice&)

 

 

Concerning the second error message: where do I exactly have to declare the function 'map_position_to_lattice_global'?

 

Thank you in advance,

Greetings
