- vtkWrite with moving mesh was not updated the subsets properly,
which caused it to crash.
- foamToVTK -overwrite ignored for single region cases,
was working for multi-region cases
- minor documentation changes
- Default format is now XML binary (base64) instead of legacy format.
The old -xml option is redundant and ignored.
The new -legacy option can be used to force legacy output instead.
- Polyhedral decomposition is now off by default (old -poly is ignored).
The option -poly-decomp forces decomposition of polyhedrals into
primitive shapes.
- reduced memory footprint by reading and converting fields
successively.
- Creation of symlinks to processor files is no longer required or
desired. The old -noLinks option is ignored.
- Ignore -useTimeName option. Always number according to timeIndex.
- align input parameters and some of the behaviour with vtkWrite
The output is now postProcessing/<name> for similar reasoning as
mentioned in #866 - better alignment with other function objects, no
data collision with foamToEnsight output.
- separate controls for internal and boundary meshes
- can restrict conversion based on zone names, enclosing volumes,
bounding box.
- parallel output.
The output is now postProcessing/<name> for similar reasoning as
mentioned in #866 - better alignment with other function objects, no
collision with foamToVTK output.
- align the input parameters with those of vtkCloud so that we can
specify the ASCII precision and the padding width for the output
file names as well.
- emit TimeValue field, support file series generation
- support internal or boundary meshes, combining the result into a vtm
file.
- can restrict conversion based on zone names, enclosing volumes,
bounding box
- use parallel list writing, beginDataArray methods.
- use static_assert to restrict conversion of non-label integral types
- cache .vtp.series information by fileName instead of by cloud name.
This issues if the output directory changes, and simplifies code.
ENH: emit TimeValue in files generated by vtkCloud
- additional information for passing to ParaView
ENH: vtkCloud output to postProcessing/ (issue #866)
- better alignment with other function objects, no collision with
foamToVTK output.
- Provides a means of accumulating file entries for generating vtm
by accumulate blocks, datasets and writing them later.
Only a single block depth is currently supported and the methods
are kept fairly simple.
- Output formats such as vtp, vtu follow a particular internal data
structure (HEAD, FIELD_DATA, PIECE, CELL_DATA/POINT_DATA) and other
output conventions. This writer base tracks these expected output
states internally to help avoid logic errors in the callers.
- parallel list output for foamVtkOutput
- simplified '.series' file output
- beginDataArray() method instead of openDataArray() + closeTag()
since this seems to be the most common use anyhow.
With an optional argument for leaving the tag open, this works the
same as openDataArray() which may be deprecated in the future.
- begin/end methods for CellData, PointData, FieldData (commonly used)
- templating parameters for file headers, content version,
legacy fields. This improves coding robustness and convenience of use.
- use formatter and higher-level methods for legacy output
- attribute quoting character now part of the formatter itself
instead of as an argument for xmlAttr().
Toggle with quoting() method.
- pair-wise processing of xml attributes, which also allows them to be
passed as optional entries when creating an xml tag.
- xmlComment with multiple arguments
- allows cell point labels will use global numbering, but only for
unmerged points. We'd ideally like to avoid point merging per se,
and instead use VTK point blanking instead (as required).
This approach allows parallel collation of the output into a single
piece directly.
- provide edit for adjusting the ThirdParty and fallback site variables.
This is useful when packaging into a single directory, and possibly
without any ThirdParty dependencies.
- support '-prefix' (similar to auotconfig) as an alternative to
'-foamInstall'. Use this prefix to set the prefix directly.
Bypasses and disables the bash sourcing magic.
- Within strings it is preferable to use the "<etc>" instead.
Most use cases for the old "~OpenFOAM" expansion have been obsoleted
by the #includeEtc directive.
- use std::string instead of c-string for the string constants
- centralize some definitions of resources into foamVersion.H
Now expose some of the hard-coded values used in foamEtcFiles()
so that they can be known or even overridden as required.
Relocate to src/OpenFOAM/include as a constant location.
- uses wmake, without OpenFOAM libraries.
The application and libray serve as a minimal test case for wmake,
but can also be used to generate a minimal library/executable pair
target for testing of packaging etc.
- For compatibility, access to the old global names is provided via
macros
#define FOAMversion foamVersion::version
#define FOAMbuild foamVersion::build
#define FOAMbuildArch foamVersion::buildArch
- this isolation makes it easier to provide additional scoped methods
for dealing with version related information. Eg, printBuildInfo()
- foamVersion.H now includes stdFoam.H for consistent use
of compatibility compiler defines.
- move forward declaration of Detail, Module namespaces to stdFoam.H
- doxygen documentation of Foam namespace in stdFoam.H
- generalize output text wrapping, use for usage notes
- add -help-man option for generating manpage content for any OpenFOAM
application or solver.
bin/tools/foamCreateManpage as helper
- The changes in foamCleanPath introduced for issues (#1007, #1008)
include quoted output of the cleaned environment variable.
When used in foamCreateModuleInclude, the quotes make their way
into the final environment. Avoid this by using the -sh-env
eval format instead.
- add environment extraction of MANPATH changes
