The writeEntry form is now defined and used consistently throughout OpenFOAM
making it easier to use and extend, particularly to support binary IO of complex
dictionary entries.
"pos" now returns 1 if the argument is greater than 0, otherwise it returns 0.
This is consistent with the common mathematical definition of the "pos" function:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_(mathematics)
However the previous implementation in which 1 was also returned for a 0
argument is useful in many situations so the "pos0" has been added which returns
1 if the argument is greater or equal to 0. Additionally the "neg0" has been
added which returns 1 if if the argument is less than or equal to 0.
Foam::direction is an unsigned type which makes it easier for the
compiler to pickup and report errors in the instantiation of
VectorSpaces and associated types.
Now solvers return solver performance information for all components
with backward compatibility provided by the "max" function which created
the scalar solverPerformance from the maximum component residuals from
the SolverPerformance<Type>.
The residuals functionObject has been upgraded to support
SolverPerformance<Type> so that now the initial residuals for all
(valid) components are tabulated, e.g. for the cavity tutorial case the
residuals for p, Ux and Uy are listed vs time.
Currently the residualControl option of pimpleControl and simpleControl
is supported in backward compatibility mode (only the maximum component
residual is considered) but in the future this will be upgraded to
support convergence control for the components individually.
This development started from patches provided by Bruno Santos, See

posPart returns a value or field in which the value or values are set to
0 if negative
negPart returns a value or field in which the value or values are set to
0 if positive
On 32bit OSs long is not unambiguously int32_t (or int64_t) causing
problems for IO operator resolution. This problem is avoided by
explicitly defining the following operators:
To compile with 64bit labels set
WM_LABEL_SIZE=64
in ~/OpenFOAM/dev/prefs.sh
source ~/.bashrc
then Allwmake in OpenFOAM-dev.
This will build into for example OpenFOAM-dev/platforms/linux64ClangDPInt64Opt
If WM_LABEL_SIZE is unset or set to 32:
WM_LABEL_SIZE=32
the build would be placed into OpenFOAM-dev/platforms/linux64ClangDPInt32Opt
Thus both 32bit and 64bit label builds can coexist without problem.
