- this corresponds to 'never match', which may be useful in combination
with -constant selection.
Eg,
surfaceMeshTriangulate -constant -time none
selects only the constant entry and suppresses any automatic time loop
STYLE: adjust help for the standard -times option
- indicate that times can be comma or space separated, since this is
otherwise not apparent. Don't mention semicolon separators in the help
since that just adds even more clutter.
- support .vtp format for geometry, surface, line, cloud.
- use native reader for handling vtk, vtp, obj, stl surface files.
For other formats, use the MeshedSurface (the surfMesh lib) to
handle reading and Foam::vtk::Tools::Patch to handle the
conversion to vtkPolyData. This combination is more memory efficient.
- update tutorial case to include vtp surface geometry
- note that it does not actually triangulate unless necessary, should
probably receive a new name.
- use newer constructs for handling processor/non-processor patch
selection etc.
- for quantities such as face area/normals etc, it can be useful to
calculate directly and avoid the overhead of caching all the values.
STYLE: comments, use HashTable lookup() method in whichPoint()
- this allows more use of the runTimePostProcessing functionObject
that will fail more gracefully if the proper version could not be
built.
The dummy functionObject simply emits a message that it is not available.
- this is identical to either of these solutions:
* getEnv("FOAM_CASE")
* stringOps::expand("<case>")
but with a closer resemblance to argList or Time globalPath(),
which makes the intent clearer.
Avoids using raw strings in the caller, which improves compile-time checks.
Used in situations where a class has no derivation path or other
access to a time registry or command args.
- provide relativePath() for argList and for Time.
These are relative to the case globalPath().
Eg,
Info<< "output: " << runTime.relativePath(outputFile) << nl;
- partial solution for issue #1091
This generates file properties that are case-relative,
Eg,
plane0
{
p
{
file "<case>/postProcessing/plane0/1/p_plane0.vtk";
}
U
{
file "<case>/postProcessing/plane0/1/U_plane0.vtk";
}
}
This allows the case to be moved elsewhere and still find its files.
This functionality was previously added for vtkCloud, but now also
applies to streamLine, sampledSets and sampledSurfaces
- 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.
- now use findEtcEntry() instead to handle file or directory.
Added findEtcEntries(), which provides provides a common code basis
for findEtcDirs(), findEtcFiles() ...
- this simplifies use of a unified test for directory or file.
fileName::Type what = myfile.type(true, true);
if (what == FILE) ...
if (what == DIRECTORY) ...
- Use distinct bit values for fileName::Type, for possible use in
the future.
- related to issue #1121, since we need a more flexible way of
expanding file or directory.
An alternative would be to add checkGzip to Foam::exists() and
Foam::type() functions, but that would make the code there more
confusing and in the fileHandler classes.
