SaveBoundaryValues with restarted run

[joeatodd]

Hi,

I believe there's a problem with the SaveBoundaryValues routine when restarting from a run in which SaveBoundaryValues was already used, and all the requested Parameters already exist as variables. In this situation, values are never updated and so any VTU, SaveLine or result file output shows the initial values.

I think this is due to the use of the logical ParamsExist, which is only ever set to .TRUE. once a variable has been created. Thus, if the routine finds that all the variables already exist, ParamsExist never becomes .TRUE. and so the following is executed every timestep:

Code: Select all

  IF( .NOT. ParamsExist ) THEN
     CALL WARN( 'SaveBoundaryValues', 'Parameters are not to be found. Nothing will be written')
     RETURN
   END IF

Thanks,

Joe

Hi Joe,

You're right. The test is not needed since all the variables either exist or are created. I removed the test. Fix is in the svn.

Hi Peter,
i just installed a fresher version of Elmer few weeks ago from svn.
If i want to use this debugging, should i reinstall it again?

Yes. Say "svn update" in the trunk directory and recompile. -Peter
