- there were previously no hashing mechanisms for lists so they
would fall back to the definition for primitives and hash the
memory location of the allocated List object.
- provide a UList::Hash<> sub-class for inheritance, and also a global
specialization for UList<T>, List<T> such that the hash value for
List<List<T>> cascades properly.
- provide similar function in triFace to ensure that it remains
similar in behaviour to face.
- added SymmHash to Pair, for use when order is unimportant.
STYLE: use string::hash() more consistently
- no particular reason to use Hash<word>() which forwards to
string::hash() anyhow
- With argList::noFunctionObjects() we use the logic added in
4b93333292 (issue #352)
By removing the '-noFunctionObjects' option, we automatically
suppress the creation of function-objects via Time (with argList
as a parameter).
There is generally no need in these cases for an additional
runTime.functionObjects().off() statement
Use the argList::noFunctionObjects() for more direct configuration
and reduce unnecessary clutter in the -help information.
In previous versions, the -noFunctionObjects would have been redundant
anyhow, so we can also just ignore it now instead.
- allows use with any container with begin(), end() and where the
"*iterator" dereference returns a label, which is used for indexing
into the list of points.
This container could be labelUList, bitSet, labelHashSet, etc
- signedDistance() method is like distance() but retains
the positive/negative sign for the side of the plane.
- the sign() method returns the sign as -1,0,+1 integer for
classification purposes where it is important to distinguish between
a zero value and a positive value (eg, for cutting). Optional
tolerance can be supplied to round for zero.
- refactor and inlined simple and frequently used methods.
- add boundBox faceCentre() method, which can be useful for creating
clipping planes from a bounding box.
Relocated treeBoundBox faceNormals to boundBox since they apply
equally there - the meaning of the faces (x-min, x-max, etc)
is the same, even if the point addressing for the faces differs.
- rationalized code dealing with extraction of name or indices from
coordinateSystems, polyBoundaryMesh, faBoundaryMesh, fvBoundaryMesh,
ZoneMesh to use internal implementations that allow direct
searching/matching without building an intermediate list of names.
- simpler and more efficient handling of patch group matching.
- 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.
- allows for simpler unpacking of a full list, or list range into any
sufficiently large integral type.
For example,
processorPolyPatch pp = ...;
UOPstream toNbr(pp.neighbProcNo(), pBufs);
toNbr << faceValues.unpack<char>(pp.range());
General:
* -roots, -hostRoots, -fileHandler
Specific:
* -to <coordinateSystem> -from <coordinateSystem>
- Display -help-compat when compatibility or ignored options are available
STYLE: capitalization of options text
- avoids compiler ambiguity when virtual methods such as
IOdictionary::read() exist.
- the method was introduced in 1806, and was thus not yet widely used
- 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());
