- update TimeState access methods
- use writeTime() instead of old method name outputTime()
- use deltaTValue() instead of deltaT().value()
to avoids pointless construct of intermediate
- similar to surface writing formats, also support optional
dictionary of reading options. The main beneficiary of this is the
ensight surface reader:
readOptions
{
ensight
{
masterOnly true;
}
}
This will restrict reading to the master rank. Surfaces and values
read will be broadcast to the other ranks, with the intention of
reducing load on the filesystem.
ENH: add writing of Dimensioned fields for areaWrite functionObject
- can be useful for examining finite-area source terms
- replaced ad hoc handling of formatOptions with coordSetWriter and
surfaceWriter helpers.
Accompanying this change, it is now possible to specify "default"
settings to be inherited, format-specific settings and have a
similar layering with surface-specific overrides.
- snappyHexMesh now conforms to setFormats
Eg,
formatOptions
{
default
{
verbose true;
format binary;
}
vtk
{
precision 10;
}
}
surfaces
{
surf1
{
...
formatOptions
{
ensight
{
scale 1000;
}
}
}
}
- uniq() : creates an IndirectList with duplicated entries
filtered out
- subset() : creates an IndirectList with positions that satisfy
a condition predicate.
- subset_if() : creates an IndirectList with values that satisfy a
given predicate.
An indirect subset will be cheaper than creating a subset copy
of the original data, and also allows modification.
STYLE: combine UIndirectList.H into UIndirectList.H (reduce file clutter)
- bundles frequently used 'gather/scatter' patterns more consistently.
- combineAllGather -> combineGather + broadcast
- listCombineAllGather -> listCombineGather + broadcast
- mapCombineAllGather -> mapCombineGather + broadcast
- allGatherList -> gatherList + scatterList
- reduce -> gather + broadcast (ie, allreduce)
- The allGatherList currently wraps gatherList/scatterList, but may be
replaced with a different algorithm in the future.
STYLE: PstreamCombineReduceOps.H is mostly unneeded now
- depending on how the finiteArea is split up across processors,
it is possible that some processors have failed to register
fields in their object registry.
Now ensure that the field names are synchronized in parallel before
attempting a write. Replace locally missing fields with a dummy
zero-sized field.
- ensure surface writing is time-step and nFields aware.
This avoids overwriting (ignoring) previous output fields.
- allow sampled surfaces to be used for weight fields as well.
Not sure why this restriction was still there.
- remove old compatibility reading of orientedFields.
Last used in v1612, now removed.
- only use face sampling. For surfaceFieldValue we can only do
something meaningful with face values.
ENH: modify interface methods for surfaceWriter
- replace direct modification of values with setter methods.
Eg,
old: writer.isPointData() = true;
new: writer.isPointData(true);
This makes it possible to add internal hooks to catch state changes.
ENH: allow post-construction change to sampledSurface interpolation
- rename interpolate() method to isPointData() for consistency with
other classes and to indicate that it is a query.
- additional isPointData(bool) setter method to change the expected
representation type after construction
- remove 'interpolate' restriction on isoSurfacePoint which was
previously flagged as an error but within sampledSurfaces can use
sampleScheme cellPoint and obtain representative samples.
Relax this restriction since this particular iso-surface algorithm
is slated for removal in the foreseeable future.
- make handling of verbosity more consistent.
Make all setter return the old value, remove (unused) default
parameter as being counter-intuitive. This makes it easier to
restore the original values.
For example,
const bool oldVerbose = sampler.verbose(false);
...
sampler.verbose(oldVerbose);
- previously introduced `getOrDefault` as a dictionary _get_ method,
now complete the transition and use it everywhere instead of
`lookupOrDefault`. This avoids mixed usage of the two methods that
are identical in behaviour, makes for shorter names, and promotes
the distinction between "lookup" access (ie, return a token stream,
locate and return an entry) and "get" access (ie, the above with
conversion to concrete types such as scalar, label etc).
