- releases ownership of the pointer. A no-op (and returns nullptr)
for references.
Naming consistent with unique_ptr and autoPtr.
DOC: adjust wording for memory-related classes
- add is_const() method for tmp, refPtr.
Drop (ununsed and confusing looking) isTmp method from refPtr
in favour of is_pointer() or movable() checks
ENH: noexcept for some pTraits methods, remove redundant 'inline'
- test for const first for tmp/refPtr (simpler logic)
- previously had codeAddSup used for both incompressible and
compressible source terms. However, it was not actually possible to
use it for compressible sources since any references to the 'rho'
parameter would cause a compilation error for the incompressible case.
Added 'codeAddSupRho' to distinguish the compressible case.
User must supply one or both of them on input.
- decomposePar: -no-fields to suppress decomposition of fields
- makeFaMesh: -no-decompose to suppress creation of *ProcAddressing
and fields, -no-fields to suppress decomposition of fields only
- switch from default topology merge to point merge if degenerate
blocks are detected. This should alleviate the problems noted in
#1862.
NB: this detection only works for blocks with duplicate vertex
indices, not ones with geometrically duplicate points.
ENH: add patch block/face summary in blockMesh generation
- add blockMesh -verbose option to override the static or dictionary
settings. The -verbose option can be used multiple times to increase
the verbosity.
ENH: extend hexCell handling with more cellShape-type methods
- allows better reuse in blockMesh.
Remove blockMesh-local hex edge definitions that shadowed the
hexCell values.
ENH: simplify some of the block-edge internals
- similar to -dry-run handling, can be interrogated from argList,
which makes it simpler to add into utilities.
- support multiple uses of -dry-run and -verbose to increase the
level. For example, could have
someApplication -verbose -verbose
and inside of the application:
if (args.verbose() > 2) ...
BUG: error with empty distributed roots specification (fixes#2196)
- previously used the size of distributed roots to transmit if the
case was running in distributed mode, but this behaves rather poorly
with bad input. Specifically, the following questionable setup:
distributed true;
roots ( /*none*/ );
Now transmit the ParRunControl distributed() value instead,
and also emit a gentle warning for the user:
WARNING: running distributed but did not specify roots!
COMP: implicit cast scope name to C++-string in IOobject::scopedName
- handles 'const char*' and allows a check for an empty scope name
COMP: avoid potential name conflict in local function (Istream)
- reportedly some resolution issues (unconfirmed) with Fujitsu clang
- added -dry-run, -write-vtk options.
Additional mesh information after creation.
- add parallel reductions and more information for checkFaMesh
ENH: minor cleanup of faPatch internals
- align pointLabels and pointEdges creation more closely with coding
patterns used in PrimitivePatch
- use fileHandler when loading "S0" field.
- previous handling did not correctly account for off-processor
connections (SEGFAULT).
- revised the point/area normal calculations to use the dual of the
faces. This simplifies the logic and reduces the depth of loops.
Point corrections from the neighbouring patches is handled
centrally by the new halo face information, which properly handles
on-processor or off-processor faces irrespective of any explicit
processor patches.
STYLE: local function and add comments for finiteArea area weighting
- following the original Tukovic code, the area-weighted normal
for a vector pair (defining a triangle) is weighted by
(1) area : larger weight for larger areas
(2) sin : lower weight for narrow angles (eg, shards)
(3) invDist squared : lower weights for distant points
Refactored to eliminate intermediate operations, some additional
divide-by-zero protection - similar to vector normalise()
- the finiteArea is typically restricteed to one or more patches on a
polyMesh but will have an external connectivity to other parts of
the polyMesh. For proper determination of the point normals (for
example), the neighbouring information is needed.
These outside 'halo' faces can be located on different processors,
but not correspond to an internal processor-processor interface.
Add a dedicated form of mapDistribute for swapping this type of
information. Since this is a collective operation, locate
corresponding methods directly on the faMesh level instead of
the faPatch level.
- the case of 'fan-like' processor was previously assumed to be
rare (see merge-request !490 and issue #2084).
However, Vaggelis Papoutsis noticed that even fairly normal geometries
can trigger problems.
- replaced the old patch/patch matching style with a more general
edge-based synchronisation and matching that appears to handle
the corner cases inherently. The internal communication overhead
is essentially unchanged, and the logic is simpler.
ENH: additional framework for managing patch connectivity
- the patch remapping in faFieldDecomposer calls weights
internalField() which can trigger parallel communication on the
complete mesh for some processors only (ie, blocks).
Force a priori creation of weights instead.
- ensure that the complete mesh (reconstruction helper)
is serial when adding patches.
- when creating a finite-area mesh in parallel, need to determine
the equivalent ProcAddressing for the faMesh.
In the faceProcAddressing the collected and sorted order was being
scattered directly back to the individual processors instead of only
the sections relevant to each particular processor.
This caused the observed jumbled order for reconstructed fields.
- this makes the lookup and use of tables slightly cleaner and
provides a hook for update (compat) messages
The singleton-style method returns the function pointer directly,
or nullptr on not-found.
NEW access method (mnemonic: 'ctor' prefix for constructors)
```
auto* ctorPtr = dictionaryConstructorTable(modelType);
if (!ctorPtr)
{
...
}
return autoPtr<myModel>(ctorPtr(dict, ...));
```
OLD method, which also still works, but without any compat handling:
```
auto ctorIter = dictionaryConstructorTablePtr_->cfind(modelType);
if (!ctorIter.found())
{
...
}
return autoPtr<myModel>(ctorIter()(dict, ...));
```
- a Pstream::master with a Pstream::parRun guard in case Pstream has
not yet been initialised, as will be the case for low-level messages
during startup.
- propagate relativeName handling into IOstreams
- better distinction between content and storage type
by appending 'Type' to the typedef.
old: 'Class::abcConstructorTable* tablePtr'
new: 'Class::abcConstructorTableType* tablePtr'
Was rarely used in any exposed code.
BREAKING: LESdelta::New with additional table
- parameter change to dictionaryConstructorTableType
(was dictionaryConstructorTable)
Example using mean turbulence fields (mean fields should be available e.g. from
a fieldAverage function object)
proudmanAcousticPower1
{
// Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
type proudmanAcousticPower;
libs (fieldFunctionObjects);
...
// Turbulence field names (if not retrieved from the turb model)
k kMean;
epsilon epsilonMean;
omega none; // omegaMean
}
- was taking from the current head instead from specified commit-ish
ENH: add -debian=NUM convenience option to foamPackRelease
STYLE: relocate compile begin/end messages
COMP: suppress more clang warnings (needed for boost)
- provide a plain stream() method on messageStream to reduce reliance
on casting operators and slightly opaque operator()() calls etc
- support alternative stream for messageStream serial output.
This can be used to support local redirection of output.
For example,
refPtr<OFstream> logging; // or autoPtr, unique_ptr etc
// Later...
Info.stream(logging.get())
<< "Detailed output ..." << endl;
This will use the stdout semantics in the normal case, or allow
redirection to an output file if a target output stream is defined,
but still effectively use /dev/null on non-master processes.
This is mostly the same as this ternary
(logging ? *logging : Info())
except that the ternary could be incorrect on sub-processes,
requires more typing etc.
ENH: use case-relative names of dictionary, IOstream for FatalIOError
- normally yields more easily understandable information
- argList::envExecutable() static method.
This is identical to getEnv("FOAM_EXECUTABLE"), where the name of
the executable has typically been set from the argList construction.
Provides a singleton access to this value from locations that
do not have knowledge of the originating command args (argList).
This is a similar rationale as for the argList::envGlobalPath() static.
- additional argList::envRelativePath() static method.
- make -dry-run handling more central and easier to use by adding into
argList itself.
STYLE: drop handling of -srcDoc (v1706 option)
- replaced with -doc-source for 1712 and never used much anyhow
- for compilers such as gcc and clang, may have several different
variants installed on the computer. Use WM_COMPILER_CONTROL to
specify the preferred variant.
Eg,
WM_COMPILER=Gcc
WM_COMPILER_CONTROL="version=8"
will compile with "gcc-8" and "g++-8"
Good practice would be to tag output directory names with the
version too. Eg
WM_COMPILER=Clang110
WM_COMPILER_CONTROL="version=11.0"
STYLE: modify message for change of gcc -> clang (darwin)
