- behaves the same as the valid() method, but can be queried directly
like a normal raw pointer and as per std::unique_ptr.
Eg,
autoPtr<T> ptr = ...
if (ptr) ...
- 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);
- can be used to test the behaviour of the decomposion and its
characteristics without writing any decomposition to disk.
Combine with -cellDist to visualize the expected decomposition
result.
- aids with detection of excess tokens (issue #762)
- deprecated dictionary::operator[] in favour of the lookup() method
which offers more flexibilty and clarity of purpose.
Additionally, the read<> and get<> forms should generally be used
instead anyhow.
- the vector normalise() method modifies the object inplace,
the normalised function returns a copy.
vector vec1(1,2,3);
vec1.normalise();
vs
vector vec1(1,2,3);
vec1 /= mag(vec1) + VSMALL;
For const usage, can use either of these
const vector vec2a(normalised(vector(1,2,3)));
const vector vec2b(vector(1,2,3).normalise());

ENH: check for excess tokens in dictionary input (issue #762)
- various bits of code cleanup (modernization) in meshTool/sets.
- relocate some standard functionality to TimePaths to allow a lighter
means of managing time directories without using the entire Time
mechanism.
- optional enableLibs for Time construction (default is on)
and a corresponding argList::noLibs() and "-no-libs" option
STYLE:
- mark Time::outputTime() as deprecated MAY-2016
- use pre-increment for runTime, although there is no difference in
behaviour or performance.
- functionObjectLibs -> libs
- redirectType -> name
- change deprecated writeCompression flags types to Switch.
- cleanup some trailing ';;' from some dictionaries
- The additional output generated by #calc directives in the
controlDict or decomposeParDict causes issues for the RunFunctions
extraction of 'application' and 'numberOfSubdomains'.
Avoid by using -disableFunctionEntries, which also has the side-effect
of disabling '#include'.
- add additional control via a Foam::infoDetailLevel flag, which is
supported by a 'DetailLevel' macro. Eg,
DetailLevel << "some information" << nl
- When infoDetailLevel is zero, the stdout for all Foam::system() calls
are also redirected to stderr to prevent child output from
appearing on the parent.
- close stdin before exec in system call.
