- exprValueFieldTag is an extended version of exprValue,
with additional Field/List uniformity handling
- the exprValueFieldTag reduce() method provides a more efficient
method than using a regular combine operator. Since fields are
usually non-uniform, will mostly only need the bitwise reduce and
not a more expensive gather/combine.
ENH: output of exprValue (scalar type) now includes '.'
- prevents scalar/label ambiguity for values like '100.0', which would
otherwise be written as '100' and thus interpreted as a label value
when re-reading.

STYLE: polyPatch cached areaFraction as std::unique_ptr
- more consistent with other demand-driven data.
Getter now returns tmp field instead of const reference.
- the ensightReadFile init() now automatically sets up binary/ascii
(for geometry files) and checks for the transient "BEGIN TIME STEP"
marker. If found, will also populate the file offsets for each of
the timesteps. If no corresponding footer is found (which would be
very inefficient), it simply pretends that there is only a single
time step instead of performing a costly file scan.
- parsing of the ensight case file now also supports the use of
filename numbers:
as an alternative to
filename start number:
filename increment:
- improved parsing robustness of "time values:" entry.
Can now also have contents on the same line as the introducer.
ENH: base-level adjustments for writing transient single-file
- beginGeometry() is now separated out from file creation.
- in append mode, ensightFile and ensightGeoFile will attempt to
parse existing time-step information.
- previous support for file appending (largely unused) always
specified opening with the std::ios_base::app flag.
Now differentiate between append behaviours:
APPEND_APP
~~~~~~~~~~
Corresponds to std::ios_base::app behaviour:
- Existing files will be preserved and a seek-to-end is performed at
every write. With this mode seeks/repositioning within the file
will effectively be ignored on output.
APPEND_ATE
~~~~~~~~~~
Largely approximates std::ios_base::ate behaviour:
- Existing files will be preserved and a seek-to-end is performed
immediately after opening, but not subsequently. Can use seekp()
to overwrite parts of a file.
- evaluate()
the communication type is exposed as a parameter to allow for more
tuning, but default parameter remains defaultCommsType so there is
no change in behaviour for existing code
- evaluate_if()
supports a general selection predicate
- evaluateSelected()
now does initEvaluate() for all patches, waits and then calls
evaluate(). This avoids potential deadlocks when multiple patches
are inter-communicating.
ENH: align DimensionedField reading with GeometricField treatment
- use localIOdictionary to obtain the dictionary contents
ENH: update GeometricField code
- change GeometricField writeData() as primary output method
(not operator<<) for better clarity of purpose
- use unique_ptr for GeometricField demand-driven data
- boundary entries with writeEntry(const word&, ...) instead of
writeEntry(const keyType&, ...) to match with most other
writeEntry() signatures. Also, this content will not be used
to supply regex matched sub-dictionaries.
STYLE: more consistent patch initEvaluate()/evaluate() coding
