- The logic for switching input-mode was previously completely
encapsulated within the #inputMode directive, but without any
programming equivalent. Furthermore, the encapsulation in inputMode
made the logic less clear in other places.
Exposing the inputMode as an enum with direct access from entry
simplifies things a fair bit.
- eliminate one level of else/if nesting in entryIO.C for clearer logic
- for dictionary function entries, simply use
addNamedToMemberFunctionSelectionTable() and avoid defining a type()
as a static. For most function entries the information is only used
to get a name for the selection table lookup anyhow.
- consolidate word::validated() into word::validate() and also allow
as short form for string::validate<word>(). Also less confusing than
having similarly named methods that essentially do the same thing.
- more consistent const access when iterating over strings
- add valid(char) for keyType and wordRe
- error::throwExceptions(bool) returning the previous state makes it
easier to set and restore states.
- throwing() method to query the current handling (if required).
- the normal error::throwExceptions() and error::dontThrowExceptions()
also return the previous state, to make it easier to restore later.
- resets the output buffer completely - implementing what rewind was
likely meant to have accomplished for many use cases.
STYLE: OSHA1stream reset() for symmetry. Deprecate rewind().
- use allocator class to wrap the stream pointers instead of passing
them into ISstream, OSstream and using a dynamic cast to delete
then. This is especially important if we will have a bidirectional
stream (can't delete twice!).
STYLE:
- file stream constructors with std::string (C++11)
- for rewind, explicit about in|out direction. This is not currently
important, but avoids surprises with any future bidirectional access.
- combined string streams in StringStream.H header.
Similar to <sstream> include that has both input and output string
streams.
- added an explicit print, but only report profiling to the log
file from master process.
We don't wish to overwrite any profiling that was conducted during
the simulation. Besides which, we don't have a proper Time object
for handling the write nicely either.
