- weight fields are combined by multiplication
- volFieldValue:
* 0-N scalar fields
- surfaceFieldValue:
* 0-N scalar fields
* 0-1 vector fields
In some cases this can be used to avoid creating additional
fields.

- when sampling onto a meshed surface, the sampling surface may be
outside of the mesh region, or simply too far away to be considered
reasonable.
Can now specify a max search distance and default values for samples
that are too distant.
If a default value is not specified, uses Type(Zero).
Eg,
maxDistance 0.005;
defaultValue
{
"p.*" 1e5;
T 273.15;
U (-100 -100 -100);
}
- additional "names" entry to specify a word/regex list of selections
For example,
{
type patch;
name inlets;
names ("inlet_[0-9].*" inlet);
}
- if "names" exists AND contains a literal (non-regex) that can be used
as a suitable value for "name", the "name" entry becomes optional.
For example,
{
type patch;
names ("inlet_[0-9].*" inlet);
// inferred name = inlet
}
- reduce some overhead in surfaceFieldValue

- read surfaces which are defined in terms of solid element sides. Eg,
```
*ELEMENT, TYPE=C3D4, ELSET=...
1, ...
2, ...
*SURFACE, NAME=Things, TYPE=ELEMENT
1, S1
2, S1
```
The element and side number are encoded as a synthetic face id
according to
-(10 * elemId + sideNum)
but the underlying solid geometry is discarded, since there is no
reasonable way to pass it through the surface sampling mechanism.
- bitSet and PackedList fill() as per boost dynamic_bitset.
Silently deprecate assign(val), which is potentially confusing
with other forms of assign().
- FixedList fill() as per std::array.
Add missing assignment from Foam::zero
- minor code simplication in bitSet and PackedList
STYLE: fix typo in comment, qualify Foam::zero
Example usage,
wmake -with-bear src/OpenFOAM
src/Allwmake -with-bear -s -j
- bin/tools/vscode-settings
Emit some json content suitable for setting up Visual Studio Code
for use with OpenFOAM.
For example,
bin/tools/vscode-settings > .vscode/settings.json
Ideas from Volker Weissman
----
install-dirs: a general directory installer
Copy installs non-binary (platform) directories.
Eg,
install-dirs -prefix=... -devel
install-dirs -prefix=... -default -no-app
----
install-platform: a platform (binary) installer
This is primarily driven by the need to install into system mpi
directories. The problem noted in issue #1893 is caused by the
rpm-mpi-hooks (fedora and redhat-8).
For the additional mpi library qualifier (openmpi-x86_64) to be
added to the requirements, the mpi-specific libraries (eg,
libPstream.so) need to be installed in the mpi system directory
(eg, /usr/lib64/openmpi).
However, then need symlinks from the system locations back to our
local directories to ensure that the libraries are correctly found
via our LD_LIBRARY_PATH and we don't get dummy libraries.
----
update-mpi-links: a post-install update hook
Expected paths are registered as persistent information into the
hook during packaging. Triggering the hook after installation
completes the creation of the symlinks.
Normal usage,
```
prefix="/tmp/local-install/openfoam"
bin/tools/install-dirs -prefix="$prefix" -common
bin/tools/install-platform -prefix="$prefix"
```
Installs
- /tmp/local-install/openfoam/META-INFO
- /tmp/local-install/openfoam/bin
- /tmp/local-install/openfoam/etc
- /tmp/local-install/openfoam/platforms/linux64GccDPInt32Opt/bin
- /tmp/local-install/openfoam/platforms/linux64GccDPInt32Opt/lib
Can also place architecture-dependent bits elsewhere,
```
prefix="/tmp/local-install/openfoam"
multi_arch="$(dpkg-architecture -qDEB_TARGET_MULTIARCH)"
bin/tools/install-dirs -prefix="$prefix" -common
bin/tools/install-platform -exec-prefix="$prefix/$multi_arch"
```
Installs
- /tmp/local-install/openfoam/META-INFO
- /tmp/local-install/openfoam/bin
- /tmp/local-install/openfoam/etc
- /tmp/local-install/openfoam/x86_64-linux-gnu/bin
- /tmp/local-install/openfoam/x86_64-linux-gnu/lib
Can use it to flatten out platforms entirely,
```
prefix="/tmp/local-install/openfoam"
bin/tools/install-dirs -prefix="$prefix" -common
bin/tools/install-platform -exec-prefix="$prefix"
```
Installs
- /tmp/local-install/openfoam/META-INFO

- /tmp/local-install/openfoam/etc

- findZone(), cfindZone() to return pointer to existing or nullptr if
not found. This fits with methods such as findObject() etc for other
classes and can simplify code without checks for '-1' as not found.
- use simpler constructors for empty cell/face/point zones
- change to a templated implementation instead of relying on
the container's writeList() method.
This inlines the generation while also adding the flexibility to
define different delimiters (at compile time) without the
performance penalty of passing run-time parameters.
- deprecate get(key, deflt) in favour of lookup(key, deflt).
Method name compatibility with HashTable.
- deprecate operator().
The meaning is too opaque and equally served by other means:
- use get(key) instead of operator()(key).
Const access whereas HashTable::operator()(key)
creates missing entry.
- lookup(key, deflt) - instead of operator()(key, deflt).
Const access whereas HashTable::operator()(key, deflt)
creates a missing entry.
- make Enum iterable to allow participation in range-for etc.
- non-uniform offsets are generated due to truncation errors,
which can lead to problems later on (e.g. redistributePar).
Detect if the offsets are close to being uniform.
This also is to do with redistributePar:
this uses subsetMesh to generate parts to
send to different processors.
2) related to 1558: make sure not to choose 'mapped'
patches to move the processor patches into so
we can use the mapper cloning and correctly
size additional data (e.g. offsets). This should
be generalised to hold for any patch type
holding local data ...
- For slow oscillations it can be more intuitive to specify the
period.
ENH: separate mark/space for Square
- makes it easier to tailor the desired intervals.
BUG: incorrect square wave fraction with negative phase shifts
ENH: additional cosine Function1
STYLE: avoid code duplication by inheriting Cosine/Square from Sine.
- deprecated Feb-2018, but not marked as such.
The set() method originally enforce an additional run-time check
(Fatal if pointer was already set), but this was rarely used.
In fact, the set() method was invariably used in constructors
where the pointer by definition was unset.
Can now mark as deprecated to catch the last of these.
We prefer reset() for similarity with std::unique_ptr
Eg,
FOAM_EXTRA_CXXFLAGS="-DFoam_autoPtr_deprecate_setMethod" wmake
- easier support for non-mandatory functions.
In some boundary conditions it can be desirable to support
additional functions, but not necessarily require them. Make this
easier to support with a Function1, PatchFunction1 NewIfPresent()
selector.
- support for compatibility lookups
- harmonize branching logic and error handling between Function1 and
PatchFunction1.
ENH: refactor a base class for Function1, PatchFunction1
- includes base characteristics, patch or scalar information
ENH: additional creation macros
- makeConcreteFunction1, makeConcretePatchFunction1Type for adding a
non-templated function into the correct templated selection table.
makeScalarPatchFunction1 for similarity with makeScalarFunction1
ENH: support construction of zero-sized IndirectList
- useful when addressing is to be generated in-place after construction.
Eg,
indirectPrimitivePatch myPatches
(
IndirectList<face>(mesh.faces(), Zero),
mesh.points()
);
labelList& patchFaces = myPatches.addressing();
patchFaces.resize(...);
// populate patchFaces
STYLE: add noexcept for zero/one fields and remove old dependency files
COMP: correct typedefs for geometricOneField, geometricZeroField
- uses ocountstream for the output, which swallows all output.
Improves portability
ENH: improved efficiency in countstreambuf
- xsputn() instead of overflow
- more consistent seek* methods
