Rather than requiring each functionObject to handle failed construction
internally (using the active_ flag) the static member function "viable"
is provided which returns true if construction of the functionObject is
likely to be successful. Failed construction is then handled by the
wrapper-class which constructs the functionObject,
e.g. "OutputFilterFunctionObject".
When the GeometricBoundaryField template class was originally written it
was a separate class in the Foam namespace rather than a sub-class of
GeometricField as it is now. Without loss of clarity and simplifying
code which access the boundary field of GeometricFields it is better
that GeometricBoundaryField be renamed Boundary for consistency with the
new naming convention for the type of the dimensioned internal field:
Internal, see commit a25a449c9e
This is a very simple text substitution change which can be applied to
any code which compiles with the OpenFOAM-dev libraries.
This had been used in functionObjects:
Info(log)<< "messages" << data << ....
in which it is not at all clear what the "log" argument does whereas
if (log) Info<< "messages" << data << ....
is totally clear and more efficient.
