- 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.
General:
* -roots, -hostRoots, -fileHandler
Specific:
* -to <coordinateSystem> -from <coordinateSystem>
- Display -help-compat when compatibility or ignored options are available
STYLE: capitalization of options text
- this avoids a situation when an aborted sourcing of the etc/bashrc
file can leave WM_SHELL_FUNCTIONS defined, which causes all
subsequent sourcing to fail.
- 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.
- FOAM_CONFIG_NOUSER
Suppress use of user/group configuration files.
This is useful when packaging for a central installation.
- allow additional user tuning of compiler settings.
Per-compiler overrides in "compiler-$WM_COMPILER" files
- relocate some standard functionality to TimePaths to allow a lighter
means of managing time directories without using the entire Time
mechanism.
- optional enableLibs for Time construction (default is on)
and a corresponding argList::noLibs() and "-no-libs" option
STYLE:
- mark Time::outputTime() as deprecated MAY-2016
- use pre-increment for runTime, although there is no difference in
behaviour or performance.
- since 1612, FOAM_INST_DIR and foamInstDir longer have any
special meanings when sourcing the bashrc or cshrc files.
Thus no need for special treatment in any of the dispatch wrappers.
Retained FOAM_INST_DIR as (unexported) variable in etc/bashrc,
just in case people are using patched versions of etc/bashrc
as part of their installation.
ENH: relax prefix restrictions on foamCreateVideo (issue #904)
- shift the implicit '.' to be part of the default prefix. This allows
things like "-image myimages_00" to work as might be expected.
- the current working path with replacements for base-level
OpenFOAM env variables such as FOAM_RUN, WM_PROJECT_DIR,
WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR etc
Can be used directly from the command-line or embedded into a
command prompt. For example,
PS1='$(foamPwd)\n\u\$ '
- aliases for user solver/utilities located under "$WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR":
(ufoam, uapp, usol, uutil)
- handling of dead links (find -L -delete unsupported)
- remove ignore case flag on 's/../../i' used in have_scotch script.
It is unneeded and not tolerated by Darwin's sed.
- avoid embedded comments in EXE_INC (Make/options files), which do
not work well with the OSX LLVM cpp.
It strips out the comments but also removes the continuation char.
STYLE: adjust notes about paraview library locations
- generalize some of the library extensions (.so vs .dylib).
Provide as wmake 'sysFunctions'
- added note about unsupported/incomplete system support
- centralize detection of ThirdParty packages into wmake/ subdirectory
by providing a series of scripts in the spirit of GNU autoconfig.
For example,
have_boost, have_readline, have_scotch, ...
Each of the `have_<package>` scripts will generally provide the
following type of functions:
have_<package> # detection
no_<package> # reset
echo_<package> # echoing
and the following type of variables:
HAVE_<package> # unset or 'true'
<package>_ARCH_PATH # root for <package>
<package>_INC_DIR # include directory for <package>
<package>_LIB_DIR # library directory for <package>
This simplifies the calling scripts:
if have_metis
then
wmake metisDecomp
fi
As well as reducing clutter in the corresponding Make/options:
EXE_INC = \
-I$(METIS_INC_DIR) \
-I../decompositionMethods/lnInclude
LIB_LIBS = \
-L$(METIS_LIB_DIR) -lmetis
Any additional modifications (platform-specific or for an external build
system) can now be made centrally.
- a partial selection from https://github.com/mrklein/openfoam-os-x
with adjustments. The primary purpose is to reduce header-level
incompatibilities and to provide a common set of make rules to allow
easier patching (or re-integration).
ParaView 5.4 and older:
- requires lib/paraview-X.X only
ParaView 5.5:
- requires lib/
- does not appear to require lib/paraview-X.X, but retained for simplicity
- Change default version to paraview-5.5.0 for testing purposes
- primary points for an external user are the polyMesh constructor
- add config info for gcc-7.3.0
COMP: intel-2017. Ignore unknown pragmas. Disambiguate method resolution.
- export library path for gmp/mpfr from CGAL config files.
This is required when non-system gmp/mpfr libraries are being
used, but not using a ThirdParty compiler installation.
- automatically handle lib/ vs lib64/ (eg, for central installations)
for packages such as boost, CGAL, etc. While the ThirdParty
compilation of these will normally land in lib64/, this may not be
the case when they are supplied by another means.
- reworked the handling of foamEtcFile and foamCleanPath for less
clutter in the configuration files.
Added the bin/tools/lib-dir script to handle logic that is
too complex to easily manage in csh.
- required if there is no system openmp and libomp or libgomp are
only found in the clang hierarchy
STYLE: add some notes in the openmp rules.
- the _OPENMP macro is now used in low-level testing files
- The -rotate-angle option allows convenient specification of a
rotation about an arbitrary axis. Eg, -rotate-angle '((1 1 1) 45)'
- The -origin option can be used to temporarily shift the origin
for the rotation operations. For example,
-origin '(0 0 1)' -rotate-angle '((1 0 0) 180)'
for mirroring.
- relocate WM_COMPILER_ARCH, WM_COMPILER_LIB_ARCH from
etc/{bashrc,cshrc} to etc/config.{csh,sh}/settings since these
should not be changed by the user anyhow.
- Use gcc/g++ as common base and specialize afterwards (to reduce
duplication)
- adjust format of WM_PROJECT_SITE fallback to allow for easier
automated edits
- unknown options or missing option values now emit a shorter message
without the entire usage. This makes it easier to identify the errors
and is better aligned with the behaviour of GNU system tools.
====
$ simpleFoam -case
Using: OpenFOAM-plus (see www.OpenFOAM.com)
Build: plus-01234
Error: option '-case' requires an argument
See 'simpleFoam -help' for usage
====
- provide for reduced (-help) and full (-help-full) usage information.
In many cases the reduced usage provided sufficient and easier
to find the information.
- make -srcDoc an alias for -doc-source
- no warnings about option aliases for future dates.
- this provides a better typesafe means of locating predefined cell
models than relying on strings. The lookup is now ptr() or ref()
directly. The lookup functions behave like on-demand singletons when
loading "etc/cellModels".
Functionality is now located entirely in cellModel but a forwarding
version of cellModeller is provided for API (but not ABI) compatibility
with older existing user code.
STYLE: use constexpr for cellMatcher constants
