| Summary | 0003469: error if faces contains binary faceList | ||||
| Description | Check the attached example. In the file: .../constant/polyMesh/faces the binary section is written as faceList. In OpenFOAM v7, when executing a utility, e.g. checkMesh, it crashes with this error: --> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR: Expected a ')' while reading binaryBlock, found on line 25 an error file: /.../2volumes/constant/polyMesh/faces at line 25. From function Foam::Istream& Foam::Istream::readEnd(const char*) in file db/IOstreams/IOstreams/Istream.C at line 109. FOAM exiting In OpenFOAM v6, utilities are able to process this case. | ||||

How was the constant/polyMesh/faces file generated? Can you provide the steps to reproduce including the method to generate the constant/polyMesh/faces file? Can you reproduce the problem in a tutorial case? |

It looks like there is a bug in the ANSA OpenFOAM export function, you will need to contact the producers of ANSA about this as their software in not open-source. If you can reproduce the problem using any of the mesh generation or manipulation tools in OpenFOAM we can take a look at it. |
|
|
Do you support OpenFOAM v7? Is looks like your export module needs updating. |
|
|
I've actually been using ANSA recently and for me the version 20.1.1 of ANSA is exporting the "faces" file as type "faceCompactList", which OpenFOAM 7 has no problems using. I suspect that in ANSA, the export to v1.5 version compatibility option was used, instead of the v4.0. |

|
We are unable to reproduce this problem in OpenFOAM and do not have access to ANSA which is closed-source. It appears the bug is in ANSA rather than OpenFOAM. |
