- soft renames (ie, old names still available via typedefs) for more
reasonable names and more coverage with std stream variants.
The old names could be a bit cryptic.
For example, uiliststream (== an unallocated/external list storage),
which is written as std::ispanstream for C++23.
Could similarly argue that IListStream is better named as
ICharStream, since it is an input stream of characters and the
internal storage mechanism (List or something else) is mostly
irrelevant.
Extending the coverage to include all std stream variants, and
simply rewrap them for OpenFOAM IOstream types. This simplifies the
inheritance patterns and allows reuse of icharstream/ocharstream as
a drop-in replace for istringstream/ostringstream in other wrappers.
Classes:
* icharstream / ICharStream [old: none / IListStream]
* ocharstream / OCharStream [old: none / OListStream]
* ispanstream / ISpanStream [old: uiliststream / UIListStream]
* ospanstream / OSpanStream [old: none / UOListStream]
Possible new uses : read file contents into a buffer, broadcast
buffer contents to other ranks and then transfer into an icharstream
to be read from. This avoid the multiple intermediate copies that
would be associated when using an istringstream.
- Use size doubling instead of block-wise incremental for ocharstream
(OCharStream). This corresponds to the sizing behaviour as per
std::stringstream (according to gcc-11 includes)
STYLE: drop Foam_IOstream_extras constructors for memory streams
- transitional/legacy constructors but not used in any code
- local writeHeaderEntry helper was not marked as file-scope static.
- use do/while to simplify handling of padding spaces
ENH: IOobject - copy construct, resetting name and local component
- when copying with a new local component, this is simpler than
constructing from all of the components, which was previously the
only possibility for setting a new local component.
- support selective enable/disable of the file banner.
ENH: improve code isolation for decomposedBlockData
- use readBlockEntry/writeBlockEntry to encapsulate the IO handling,
which ensures more consistency
- new decomposedBlockData::readHeader for chaining into the
block header information.
- remove unused constructors for decomposedBlockData
ENH: minor cleanup of collated fileOperations
