- use allocator class to wrap the stream pointers instead of passing
them into ISstream, OSstream and using a dynamic cast to delete
then. This is especially important if we will have a bidirectional
stream (can't delete twice!).
STYLE:
- file stream constructors with std::string (C++11)
- for rewind, explicit about in|out direction. This is not currently
important, but avoids surprises with any future bidirectional access.
- combined string streams in StringStream.H header.
Similar to <sstream> include that has both input and output string
streams.
- this shifts responsibility away from caller to the individual writers
for knowing which file formats are supported and which file ending is
appropriate. When the writer receives the output format request,
it can elect to downgrade or otherwise adjust it to what it can
actually manage (eg, legacy vs xml vs xml-append).
But currently still just with legacy format backends.
Some tools now output sets at the pointsInstance (if relating to geometry),
some at the facesInstance (if relating to topology).
So when loading them we now search for them from current time down
to facesInstance. They cannot be beyond facesInstance.
Adapted Time::findInstance to take optional limiting instance. Adapted
topoSet to use this. Adapted all uses of IOobjectList on sets to do the
same.
- removed the previously added fileName type(), isDir(), isFile() methods.
- added optional bool parameter to isFile() function to explicitly
enable/disable the check for gzip files.
- fixed minor bugginess where the default usage of isFile() would result in
false positive matches.
- be slightly more stringent and use isDir() and isFile() instead of
exists() function when we actually know the expected type.
- can use 'XX.empty()' instead of 'XX.size() == 0', 'XX.size() < 1' or
'XX.size() <= 0' or for simpler coding.
It also has the same number of characters as '!XX.size()' and /might/ be
more readable
- many size checking had 'XX.size() > 0', 'XX.size() != 0', or 'XX.size() >= 1'
when a simple 'XX.size()' suffices
