By default the case stops following the next write but stopping immediately with
or without writing are also options.
The stopAtFile functionObject derived from stopAt stops the run when a file
predefined file is created in the case directory:
Description
Stops the run when the specified file is created in the case directory.
The default name of the trigger file is \c $FOAM_CASE/<name> where \c
<name> is the name of the functionObject entry and the default action is \c
nextWrite.
Currently the following action types are supported:
- noWriteNow
- writeNow
- nextWrite
Examples of function object specification:
\verbatim
stop
{
type stopAtFile;
libs ("libutilityFunctionObjects.so");
}
\endverbatim
will stop the run at the next write after the file "stop" is created in the
case directory.
\verbatim
stop
{
type stopAtFile;
libs ("libutilityFunctionObjects.so");
file "$FOAM_CASE/stop";
action writeNow;
}
\endverbatim
will write the fields and stop the run when the file "stop" is created in
the case directory.
