- Eg, with surface writers now in surfMesh, there are fewer libraries
depending on conversion and sampling.
COMP: regularize linkage ordering and avoid some implicit linkage (#1238)
- provide dedicated detection 'have_ptscotch' function that can be
used after the 'have_scotch' function.
It sets the PTSCOTCH_ARCH_PATH, PTSCOTCH_INC_DIR, PTSCOTCH_LIB_DIR
and helps when the serial and parallel versions are located with
different logic.
- a valid() method (same as !empty() call) for consistency with other
containers and data types
- a centre() method (same as midpoint() method) for consistency with
other OpenFOAM geometric entities
- makes the intent clearer and avoids the need for additional
constructor casting. Eg,
labelList(10, Zero) vs. labelList(10, 0)
scalarField(10, Zero) vs. scalarField(10, scalar(0))
vectorField(10, Zero) vs. vectorField(10, vector::zero)
- it is sufficient to provide the total number of times that findBinary()
failed instead of flooding the screen with messages
Full verbose warnings still emitted when debugging is on.
- the local third-party headers are to be searched before any MPI
include directories. This stops the situation where an mpi-specific
version of ptscotch.h is installed into the MPI directories.
This "system" version may well have a different SCOTCH_Num size
(32 bit vs 64 bit) from the third-party library etc.
- Start brief descriptions with 'Deprecated(YYYY-MM)' so that it is
readily visible in the short method description. Consistent date
format (YYYY-MM), placed immediately after the \deprecated tag.

ENH: add geometric decomposition constraint (issue #921)
- geometric decomposition constraints may be used to prevent the
decomposition of regions of the mesh.
The geometric constraint is applied according to the face centres,
which define the connectivity between cells.
Specified in decomposeParDict
constraints
{
geometric
{
type geometric;
geometry
{
box1
{
type box;
min (-10 -10 -10);
max (1 1 1);
}
ball1
{
type sphere;
origin (-2 -2 1);
radius 1;
}
}
}
}
ENH: add 'grow' option for geometric decomposition constraint (issue #921)
- the 'grow' option includes an additional check to include cell faces
for any cell that already has two or more of its faces "unblocked".
This could indicate a connection over a corner, but does not distinguish
between connectivity introduced by the constraint and the connectivity
defined by other constraints.
ENH: geometric decomposition constraint using topoSetFaceSource (issue #921)
- replaced use of searchableSurface with a more general and
more efficient topoSetFaceSource instead.
Since searchableSurface is also available as a topoSetFaceSource,
there is no loss in functionality, but using topoSetFaceSource allow
directly looping over the faces without creating of an additional
List of volumeTypes.
- as part of the cleanup of dictionary access methods (c6520033c9)
made the dictionary class single inheritance from IDLList<entry>.
This eliminates any ambiguities for iterators and allows
for simple use of range-for looping.
Eg,
for (const entry& e : topDict))
{
Info<< "entry:" << e.keyword() << " is dict:" << e.isDict() << nl;
}
vs
forAllConstIter(dictionary, topDict, iter))
{
Info<< "entry:" << iter().keyword()
<< " is dict:" << iter().isDict() << nl;
}
- more dictionary-like methods, enforce keyType::LITERAL for all
lookups to avoid any spurious keyword matching.
- new readEntry, readIfPresent methods
- The get() method replaces the now deprecate lookup() method.
- Deprecate lookupOrFailsafe()
Failsafe behaviour is now an optional parameter for lookupOrDefault,
which makes it easier to tailor behaviour at runtime.
- output of the names is now always flatted without line-breaks.
Thus,
os << flatOutput(someEnumNames.names()) << nl;
os << someEnumNames << nl;
both generate the same output.
- Constructor now uses C-string (const char*) directly instead of
Foam::word in its initializer_list.
- Remove special enum + initializer_list constructor form since
it can create unbounded lookup indices.
- Removd old hasEnum, hasName forms that were provided during initial
transition from NamedEnum.
- Added static_assert on Enum contents to restrict to enum or
integral values. Should not likely be using this class to enumerate
other things since it internally uses an 'int' for its values.
Changed volumeType accordingly to enumerate on its type (enum),
not the class itself.
New name: findObject(), cfindObject()
Old name: lookupObjectPtr()
Return a const pointer or nullptr on failure.
New name: findObject()
Old name: --
Return a non-const pointer or nullptr on failure.
New name: getObjectPtr()
Old name: lookupObjectRefPtr()
Return a non-const pointer or nullptr on failure.
Can be called on a const object and it will perform a
const_cast.
- use these updated names and functionality in more places
NB: The older methods names are deprecated, but continue to be defined.
- use keyType::option enum to consolidate searching options.
These enumeration names should be more intuitive to use
and improve code readability.
Eg, lookupEntry(key, keyType::REGEX);
vs lookupEntry(key, false, true);
or
Eg, lookupEntry(key, keyType::LITERAL_RECURSIVE);
vs lookupEntry(key, true, false);
- new findEntry(), findDict(), findScoped() methods with consolidated
search options for shorter naming and access names more closely
aligned with other components. Behave simliarly to the
methods lookupEntryPtr(), subDictPtr(), lookupScopedEntryPtr(),
respectively. Default search parameters consistent with lookupEntry().
Eg, const entry* e = dict.findEntry(key);
vs const entry* e = dict.lookupEntryPtr(key, false, true);
- added '*' and '->' dereference operators to dictionary searchers.
- use the dictionary 'get' methods instead of readScalar for
additional checking
Unchecked: readScalar(dict.lookup("key"));
Checked: dict.get<scalar>("key");
- In templated classes that also inherit from a dictionary, an additional
'template' keyword will be required. Eg,
this->coeffsDict().template get<scalar>("key");
For this common use case, the predefined getXXX shortcuts may be
useful. Eg,
this->coeffsDict().getScalar("key");
- instead of dict.lookup(name) >> val;
can use dict.readEntry(name, val);
for checking of input token sizes.
This helps catch certain types of input errors:
{
key1 ; // <- Missing value
key2 1234 // <- Missing ';' terminator
key3 val;
}
STYLE: readIfPresent() instead of 'if found ...' in a few more places.
- nBoundaryFaces() is often used and is identical to
(nFaces() - nInternalFaces()).
- forward the mesh nInternalFaces() and nBoundaryFaces() to
polyBoundaryMesh as nFaces() and start() respectively,
for use when operating on a polyBoundaryMesh.
STYLE:
- use identity() function with starting offset when creating boundary maps.
labelList map
(
identity(mesh.nBoundaryFaces(), mesh.nInternalFaces())
);
vs.
labelList map(mesh.nBoundaryFaces());
forAll(map, i)
{
map[i] = mesh.nInternalFaces() + i;
}
- centralizes IOobject handling and treatment of alternative locations.
If an alternative file location is specified, it will be used instead.
- provide decompositionMethod::canonicalName instead of using
"decomposeParDict" in various places.
- simplifies usage.
Support syncPar check on names() to detect inconsistencies.
- simplify readFields, ReadFields and other routines by using these
new methods.
- what was previously termed 'setLargeCellSubset()' is now simply
'setCellSubset()' and supports memory efficient interfaces.
The new parameter ordering avoids ambiguities caused by default
parameters.
Old parameter order:
setLargeCellSubset
(
const labelList& region,
const label currentRegion,
const label patchID = -1,
const bool syncCouples = true
);
New parameter order:
setCellSubset
(
const label regioni,
const labelUList& regions,
const label patchID = -1,
const bool syncCouples = true
);
And without ambiguity:
setCellSubset
(
const labelUList& selectedCells,
const label patchID = -1,
const bool syncCouples = true
);
- support bitSet directly for specifying the selectedCells for
memory efficiency and ease of use.
- Additional constructors to perform setCellSubset() immediately,
which simplifies coding.
For example,
meshParts.set
(
zonei,
new fvMeshSubset(mesh, selectedCells)
);
Or even
return autoPtr<fvMeshSubset>::New(mesh, selectedCells);
- improves backward compatibility and more naming consistency.
Retain setMany(iter1, iter2) to avoid ambiguity with the
PackedList::set(index, value) method.
