On 64-bit systems, the system installations of boost, cgal are under
lib64/. The behaviour for a ThirdParty build is mostly lib/ but this
can also be changing.
Boost 1_62_0 and older build into 'lib/'.
CGAL-4.9 builds into 'lib64/', older versions into 'lib/'.
Future-proof things by using lib$WM_COMPILER_LIB_ARCH for boost and
cgal build rules, and forcing these as build targets in the ThirdParty
makeCGAL as well.
--
STYLE: check for boost/version.hpp, CGAL/version.h instead their directories
- was incorrectly writing it as "startFace", which would be
immediately overwritten anyhow
STYLE: avoid noisy output when adding the boundary 'type' in mesh conversion.
Note: classes are prefixed with 'foamVtk' instead of 'vtk' to avoid potential
conflicts with VTK itself.
foamVtkCore
~~~~~~~~~~~
- General very low-level functionality.
foamVtkPTraits
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Traits type of functionality for VTK
foamVtkOutputOptions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- The various format output options as a class that can be passed to
formatters etc.
foamVtkCells
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Intended for unifying vtkTopo and PV-Reader code in the future.
- Handles polyhedron decompose internally etc
foamVtkOutput, foamVtkFormatter
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Output helpers.
- Selector for individual formatters.
Currently write all scalar data a 'float' (not 'double'). Can
revisit this in the future.
Provide common face area/normal support in PrimitivePatch
For polyPatch, both the faceAreas() and faceCentres() are masked by their subField equivalents.
Since there is no polyPatch method for magFaceAreas(), the PrimitivePatch method will be seen.
See merge request !74
- In the corner case with few faces or points, the normal List I/O
results in a compact list representation.
This is less than desirable for external programs with simple
line-based parsers.
- Write exactly the following
*Faces*
// Patch: <word-Region> <word-Patch>
<int-nFaces>
(
<int-faceSize>(<int> .. <int>)
...
)
*Points*
// Patch: <word-Region> <word-Patch>
<int-nPoints>
(
(<float-x> <float-y> <float-z>)
...
)
STYLE: only use serial form of createExternalCoupledPatchGeometry in tutorial
- less confusing for the user, who wonders why it is being done twice.
- Can currently have a periodic restart, but for simulations with a
known run-up, it can be useful to have a specific time to restart
the averaging.
- Note that the restartTime acts as a 'single-shot'. If the
restartTime is already in the past when a simulation is started, it
is ignored. If, during a simulation, the restartTime is crossed, it
will be triggered and then set itself to be ignored in the future.
- On the first call, ParaView_DIR is unset and thus the clean-path
fails with the warning "ParaView_DIR: Undefined variable."
This looks messy, but is of no _major_ consequence since paraview
doesn't need to be removed anyhow. The only slight risk is that the
path to a third-party cmake might not be cleaned.
- Patch as per Bruno's suggestion.
- It is incorrect to prefix the assignment with an 'export' since this
automatically marks the overall command as successful and circumvents
the fallback.
There is no simple way to have proper behaviour when sourced with a
local directory path, but at least it now uses the fallback.
It is still easy to wreak the mechanism with valid but confusing input.
For example,
". /path/to/openfoam/etc/././bashrc"
The only real certainty is that "${BASH_SOURCE%/*}"
should point to the 'etc/' directory. In which case,
cd ${BASH_SOURCE%/*} # <- now in the etc/ directory
pwd=$(pwd -P) # <- fully-qualified path to etc/
pwd=${pwd%/*/*} # <- up two parent levels
- This works with ". ./bashrc", but fails with ". bashrc"
(probably not so common).
- Con: The construct requires an additional sub-shell.
- include cleanup of other postProcessing directories:
* Ensight, EnSight, ensightWrite
- don't need to remove files that cleanSnappyFiles already removed:
* 0/cellLevel 0/pointLevel
- bundle removal of constant/ items together:
* constant/cellDecomposition constant/polyMesh constant/tetDualMesh
- manifest in some parallel operations.
STYLE: update foamToEnsight, foamToEnsightParts to use C++ initializer_list
- avoid warning message when removing a non-existent directory (ensight output).
