- allows (for example) splitting a user string on whitespace and
passing this to system as a list of arguments, thus bypassing any
implicit use of 'sh'.
- system() with optional background, for spawning processes.
- this makes them applicable to Foam::string, Foam::word etc
ENH: improvements to CStringList
- add strings() sublist variant which can be useful when handling
command arguments separately
- add construct from SubStrings.
- in rare cases we may wish to have command-line arguments that are
non-mandatory. This can now be reflected in the usage output, provided
that the argList::nonMandatoryArgs() has been used.
- added setRootCaseNonMandatoryArgs.H that applies the
argList::nonMandatoryArgs() settings and otherwise performs largely
as per setRootCase.H, except that the check for mandatory arguments
is deferred to later user code.
- constructor for empty cell/face/point Zones, with contents to be
transferred in later.
- ZoneMesh::operator(const word&) to return existing zone or a new empty one.
- this provides a better typesafe means of locating predefined cell
models than relying on strings. The lookup is now ptr() or ref()
directly. The lookup functions behave like on-demand singletons when
loading "etc/cellModels".
Functionality is now located entirely in cellModel but a forwarding
version of cellModeller is provided for API (but not ABI) compatibility
with older existing user code.
STYLE: use constexpr for cellMatcher constants
- warn or fatal if Pstream::init or Pstream::exit are called multiple
times.
- additional Pstream::initNull method as failsafe to initialize MPI
when the underlying OpenFOAM process is not running in parallel but
the application still needs MPI.
- Pstream::exit() can now also be called without having used MPI::init(),
which means it can be used to cleanup serial process or for
applications that used the special purpose Pstream::initNull()
mechanism.
- the dictionary-driven variant of stitchMesh allows sequential
application of 'stitch' operation with requiring intermediate
writing to disk.
- Without arguments:
* stitchMesh uses a system/stitchMeshDict or -dict dict
- With arguments:
* master/slave patches specified on the command-line as in previous
versions.
Within decomposeParDict, it is now possible to specify a different
decomposition method, methods coefficients or number of subdomains
for each region individually.
The top-level numberOfSubdomains remains mandatory, since this
specifies the number of domains for the entire simulation.
The individual regions may use the same number or fewer domains.
Any optional method coefficients can be specified in a general
"coeffs" entry or a method-specific one, eg "metisCoeffs".
For multiLevel, only the method-specific "multiLevelCoeffs" dictionary
is used, and is also mandatory.
----
ENH: shortcut specification for multiLevel.
In addition to the longer dictionary form, it is also possible to
use a shorter notation for multiLevel decomposition when the same
decomposition method applies to each level.
- only warn about missing cells/points if the mesh is also missing
boundary patches.
- reduce verbosity when decomposing to an empty mesh
- skip face matching when either mesh has no faces
- the -dir option was added in commit c1c6243c3e to allow quick
testing of documentation for a set of classes.
This was largely replicated in commit 843d83117, but accepting
multiple directories.
Apply some of the same ideas here and avoid creation of a tmp file.
