The timeName() function simply returns the dimensionedScalar::name() which holds
the user-time name of the current time and now that timeName() is no longer
virtual the dimensionedScalar::name() can be called directly. The timeName()
function implementation is maintained for backward-compatibility.
This reference represents unnecessary storage. The mesh can be obtained
from tracking data or passed to the particle evolution functions by
argument.
In addition, removing the mesh reference makes it possible to construct
as particle from an Istream without the need for an iNew class. This
simplifies stream-based transfer, and makes it possible for particles to
be communicated by a polyDistributionMap.
replacing the virtual functions overridden in engineTime.
Now the userTime conversion function in Time is specified in system/controlDict
such that the solver as well as all pre- and post-processing tools also operate
correctly with the chosen user-time.
For example the user-time and rpm in the tutorials/combustion/XiEngineFoam/kivaTest case are
now specified in system/controlDict:
userTime
{
type engine;
rpm 1500;
}
The default specification is real-time:
userTime
{
type real;
}
but this entry can be omitted as the real-time class is instantiated
automatically if the userTime entry is not present in system/controlDict.
The -dict option is now handled correctly and consistently across all
applications with -dict options. The logic associated with doing so has
been centralised.
If a relative path is given to the -dict option, then it is assumed to
be relative to the case directory. If an absolute path is given, then it
is used without reference to the case directory. In both cases, if the
path is found to be a directory, then the standard dictionary name is
appended to the path.
