FieldStencils and Field(Range) views

[Nils H. Busch]

Hello,

I was trying to apply a FieldStencil on a view of a field defined by a
Range domain.
I discovered that this does not work, since such a view evaluates to a
NoGeometry template argument of Field. I was confirmed of this when
reading the tutorial.
Does this mean, I cannot apply a FieldStencil to Range views of fields ?

Is there a workaround to this or is this possible with Pooma v 2.4 ?
Currently, I am still using v 2.3, as I am not certain whether work on
v2.4 has been completed.

What I am trying to do, is to implement some kind of reduction operation
(for a multigrid scheme) that operates on blocks of the finer resolution
field and assigns them to a coarser resolution field.
If anyone could give me a hint on how to approach that problem (what
kind of classes to use, example code that does similar things),  I would
appreciate it very much.

Thanks.
