- in some circumstances we need to pass a bool value upwards to the
caller and know if the true/false value was set based on real input
or is a default value.
Eg, in the object::read() we might normally have
enabled_(dict.readIfPresent(key, true));
but would lose information about why the value is true/false.
We can change that by using
enabled_(dict.readIfPresent<Switch>(key, Switch::DEFAULT_ON));
After which we can use this information is testing.
if
(
child.enabled().nonDefault()
? child.enabled()
: parent.enabled()
)
{ ... }
And thus enable output if the parent requested it explicitly or by
default and it has not been explicitly disabled in the child.
No difference when testing as a bool and the text representation
of DEFAULT_ON / DEFAULT_OFF will simply be "true" / "false".
ENH: add construction of Switch from dictionary (similar to Enum)
- Can result in inadvertent conversions where the user should really
know or check if the pointer is valid prior to using.
- Still have several places to fix that are using the deprecated copy
construct and copy assignment
- changed the sectorCoeffs keyword to 'point' from 'axisPt'
for more similarity with other dictionaries.
Continue to accept 'axisPt' for compatibility.
- introduced a ListPolicy details to make the transition between
a short list (space separated) and a long list (newline separated)
more configurable.
We suppress line breaks for commonly used types that often have
short content: (word, wordRes, keyType).
- accidentally introduced by 27c62303ad
STYLE: trial use of brace-initialized dimensionSet
- instead of writing
dimensionedScalar(dimensionSet(1, -2, -2, 0, 0, 0), Zero);
we can use C++11 brace-initialization to bundle the parameters
for the dimensionSet construction and simply write
dimensionedScalar({1, -2, -2, 0, 0, 0}, Zero);
Note the following is incorrect syntax (extra brackets):
dimensionedScalar(({1, -2, -2, 0, 0, 0}), Zero);
- a valid() method (same as !empty() call) for consistency with other
containers and data types
- a centre() method (same as midpoint() method) for consistency with
other OpenFOAM geometric entities
- fixed some more places with an explicit AUTO_WRITE.
BUG: revert handling of the readOption. It should not be NO_READ.
In cases where the user a IOobject without specifying read/write, it
defaults to NO_READ anyhow. However, the move constructor can also
be called with empty lists and a read option. This has the same
signature, but obviously will not work with NO_READ.
- identical to found(), which should be used for more consistency.
The contains() is a remnant from when hashedWordList was generalized
from a speciesTable (OCT 2010)
- provide a lookupOrDefault constructor form, since this is a fairly
commonly used requirement and simplifies the calling sequence.
Before
dimensionedScalar rhoMax
(
dimensionedScalar::lookupOrDefault
(
"rhoMax",
pimple.dict(),
dimDensity,
GREAT
)
);
After
dimensionedScalar rhoMax("rhoMax", dimDensity, GREAT, pimple.dict());
- read, readIfPresent methods with alternative lookup names.
- Mark the Istream related constructors with compile-time deprecated
warnings.
BUG: read, readIfPresent methods not handling optional dimensions (#1148)
