Summary

gmshToFoam is unable to convert the example meshes in the source tree. This worked fine in v2012.

Steps to reproduce

Run Allrun in the attached minimal example. This is a example mesh from the source tree.

Example case

gmshToFoamBug.tgz

What is the current bug behaviour?

gmshToFoam exits with the error:

Wrong token type - expected word, found on line 0: variable "$MeshFormat"

file: input at line 0.

    From Foam::Istream& Foam::operator>>(Foam::Istream&, Foam::word&)
    in file primitives/strings/word/wordIO.C at line 70.

FOAM exiting

What is the expected correct behavior?

(No error)

Environment information

• OpenFOAM version : v2106
• Operating system : ubuntu
• Hardware info :
• Compiler : (OpenCFD binary package)

Possible fixes

In gmshToFoam.C, replacing all occurrences of word tag(lineStr); with string tag(token(tagStr).stringToken()); seems to do the trick.
