[gmx-users] #include section for a .top file

[soumadwip ghosh]

Dear GMX users,
                          I am simulating some polyelectrolytes in the
presence of a large organic cation. I have made both the .itp files from
SWIISPARAM web server since I am using CHARMM27 force field. Next, I made
the topology file for GROMACS like this-


 GROMACS topology
;
; Include the force field
#include "charmm27.ff/forcefield.itp"
; Define SWISSPARAM atomtypes here
#include "atomtypes_nafion.itp"
#include "atomtypes_tma.itp"

; Include chain topologies
#include "sdg_nafion.itp"
#include "tmaua.itp"

; Include water topology
#include "charmm27.ff/tip3p.itp"

; Include generic ion topology
#include "charmm27.ff/ions.itp"

[ system ]
Two proteins in water

[ molecules ]
LIG       1
tma      37
SOL         1750
CL               36

I have included atomtypes separately immediately after the force field
description since previously issuing grompp was giving this error-------

" fatal error
'  [ atomtypes ]
Invalid order for directive atomtypes'.
Hence, I constructed the system.top file in the above way according to some
relevant google discussion thread. My question is my .top file correct? the
two .itp file are given below----

Then when I proceeded for grompp there was a warning that-

'atomtype CR has been overridden'

I guess this is not surprising since both the itp's contain this CR
