Eg,
#define FOAM_CONFIGURED_PROJECT_ETC "/usr/share/openfoam/etc"
This provides some easy to file patching locations, but is not yet
integrated in the build system at all.
- 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)
Previously silently accepted '-o' as being equivalent to '-output',
but the former could be misinterpreted meaning an output file (which
it is not) instead of an output directory.
- instead of
WM_COMPILER=GccKNL WM_COMPILE_OPTION=Opt
-> linux64GccKNLDPInt32Opt
now specify
WM_COMPILER=Gcc WM_COMPILE_OPTION=OptKNL
-> linux64GccDPInt32OptKNL
This makes it easier (and more obvious) for adding different tweaks
without needing to generate too many files.
Eg,
cd wmake/rules/linux64Gcc
cp cOpt cOptBdw
cp c++Opt c++OptBdw
edit these two files and then use WM_COMPILE_OPTION=OptBdw
CONFIG: provide some default c/c++ flags in General compiler rules
- can make is easier when deriving new compile options, and ensures
that '-02' is enabled as an initial default.
- finds the correct root directory location before creating
the lnInclude directory
Eg,
from within something like src/finiteVolume/fields/fvPatchFields/..
wmakeLnInclude -update -root
it backtracks to find the top-level directory with Make/
and makes the lnInclude directory there:
Using /home/mark/openfoam/OpenFOAM-plus/src/finiteVolume
ln: /home/mark/openfoam/OpenFOAM-plus/src/finiteVolume/lnInclude
- 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.
- now free anything owned by the registry when doing a clear.
- the myriad of other ways to remove items (and potentially leaking)
have not yet been addressed:
* set, erase, retain, filterKeys, filterValues, filterEntries
- Uses the user-specified value for the HTC calculation
{
type externalCoupledTemperature;
outputTemperture fluid; // or wall;
htcRefTemperature user; // or cell (default)
Tref 293.15;
}
- was for parallel compilation across multiple hosts, but less useful
with modern CPUs with higher number of cores and/or hyperthreading.
Fragile use and dependent on a 'lockfile' utility that is not often
installed.
- previously stated that the patch level would be 0, but this would
necessitate many revert commits after merging in the master branch.
It is better to leave the meaning open.
