- this seems to be the only reliable means of obtaining the values.
Using typeName_() yields the wrong value.
Using the typeName causes initialization issues
(segfault when executing on some systems).
- support name filtering by class based on <Type> or predicates.
Eg,
objects.sortedNames<volScalarField>(namePattern);
vs objects.sortedNames(volScalarField::typeName, namePattern);
These can also be used directly for untyped name matching.
Eg,
objects.sortedNames<void>(namePattern);
Can also use a predicate:
objects.sortedNames(wordRe("vol.*Field"), namePattern);
objects.sortedNames
(
[](const word& clsName){ return clsName.startsWith("vol"); },
namePattern
);
- naming similar to objectRegistry, with unambiguous resolution.
The lookup() methods have different return types depending on the
calling parameter.
STYLE: use IOobjectListTemplates.C for implementations
- previously included as local definition within IOobjectList.C,
but will be adding more templated methods soon.
- adjust parameters (eg, matchName instead of matcher) to show their
function
ENH: handle objectRegistry::names<void>(...)
- this is equivalent to no Type restriction, and can be used when
filtering names. Eg,
obr.names<void>(wordRe..);
- handle tmp fields in interpolate methods
- special method interpolateInternal() for creating a volume field
with zero-gradient treatment for patches from an internal field.
This method was previously also called interpolate(), but that
masked the ability to subset the internal field only.
Ensight output needs the volume field:
uses interpolateInternal().
VTK output has separate handling of internal and patch fields:
uses interpolate().
ENH: added fvMeshSubset mesh() method for baseMesh or subMesh.
- simplies coding when the fvMeshSubset may or may not be in active use.
ENH: update foamToEnsight to use newer methods in wrapped form
- static interpolate functions with renaming for manual use with
fvMeshSubset (when fvMeshSubsetProxy may be too limiting in
functionality)
- helps reduce clutter in the topoSetDict files.
Caveats when using this.
The older specification styles using "name" will conflict with the
set name. Eg,
{
name f0
type faceSet;
action add;
source patchToFace;
sourceInfo
{
name inlet;
}
}
would flattened to the following
{
name f0
type faceSet;
action add;
source patchToFace;
name inlet;
}
which overwrites the "name" used for the faceSet.
The solution is to use the updated syntax:
{
name f0
type faceSet;
action add;
source patchToFace;
patch inlet;
}
- faceBitSet, pointBitSet and faceBoolSet (similar to cellBitSet)
* allows topo sources in a wider variety of places.
* With copy or move constructors.
- cylinderToPoint, searchableSurfaceToFace, searchableSurfaceToPoint,
sphereToFace, sphereToPoint sources
- optional innerRadius for sphere and cylinder sources to treat as hollow.
- support "sets" as well as "set" for cellToCell, faceToFace... sources.
* convenience and avoids writing the set during processing.
- now applicable to labelLists.
Note:
in some situations it will be more efficient to use
Foam::identity() directly. Eg,
globalIndex globalCells(mesh.nCells());
...
labelList cellIds
(
identity(globalCells.localSize(), globalCells.localStart())
);
- old 'DELETE' enum was easily confused with 'REMOVE', which removes
the set, not the elements from the set.
- provide corresponding subtractSet() method
STYLE: HashSet set/unset instead of insert/erase methods in topoSetSource
- simplifies switching to/from bitSet storage
- 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.
Update of overRhoPimpleDyMFoam and overInterDyMFoam solvers.
Adding corresponding tutorials with best possible settings
The main effort was put on reducing pressure spikes as the
stencil change with hole cells on the background mesh.
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.
- these currently only with bool parameters, but the return value should
nonetheless always be a bool value:
andOp(), orOp(), lessOp(), lessEqOp(), greaterOp(), greaterEqOp()
- renamed the unused eqEqOp() to equalOp() for naming consistency with
the equal() global function.
ENH: equalOp() specialization for scalars
- function object version of the equal() function.
The default constructor uses the same tolerance (VSMALL),
but can also supply an alternative tolerance on construction.
- with the 'cwd' optimization switch it is possible to select the
preferred behaviour for the cwd() function.
A value of 0 causes cwd() to return the physical directory,
which is what getcwd() and `pwd -P` return.
Until now, this was always the standard behaviour.
With a value of 1, cwd() instead returns the logical directory,
which what $PWD contains and `pwd -L` returns.
If any of the sanity checks fail (eg, PWD points to something other
than ".", etc), a warning is emitted and the physical cwd() is
returned instead.
Apart from the optical difference in the output, this additional
control helps workaround file systems with whitespace or other
characters in the directory that normally cause OpenFOAM to balk.
Using a cleaner symlink elsewhere should skirt this issue.
Eg,
cd $HOME
ln -s "/mounted volume/user/workdir" workdir
cd workdir
# start working with OpenFOAM
- 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");
- same as !isPattern(), but can be more readable.
- add wordRe enum state 'UNKNOWN', which has the identical value as
'DETECT' but used for a return value.
