- set() was silently deprecated in favour of reset() FEB-2018
since the original additional check for overwriting an existing
pointer was never used. The reset(...) name is more consistent
with unique_ptr, tmp etc.
Now emit deprecations for set().
- use direct test for autoPtr, tmp instead of valid() method.
More consistent with unique_ptr etc.
STYLE: eliminate redundant ptr() use on cloned quantities
- decomposePar: -no-fields to suppress decomposition of fields
- makeFaMesh: -no-decompose to suppress creation of *ProcAddressing
and fields, -no-fields to suppress decomposition of fields only
- similar to -dry-run handling, can be interrogated from argList,
which makes it simpler to add into utilities.
- support multiple uses of -dry-run and -verbose to increase the
level. For example, could have
someApplication -verbose -verbose
and inside of the application:
if (args.verbose() > 2) ...
BUG: error with empty distributed roots specification (fixes#2196)
- previously used the size of distributed roots to transmit if the
case was running in distributed mode, but this behaves rather poorly
with bad input. Specifically, the following questionable setup:
distributed true;
roots ( /*none*/ );
Now transmit the ParRunControl distributed() value instead,
and also emit a gentle warning for the user:
WARNING: running distributed but did not specify roots!
- argList::envExecutable() static method.
This is identical to getEnv("FOAM_EXECUTABLE"), where the name of
the executable has typically been set from the argList construction.
Provides a singleton access to this value from locations that
do not have knowledge of the originating command args (argList).
This is a similar rationale as for the argList::envGlobalPath() static.
- additional argList::envRelativePath() static method.
- make -dry-run handling more central and easier to use by adding into
argList itself.
STYLE: drop handling of -srcDoc (v1706 option)
- replaced with -doc-source for 1712 and never used much anyhow
- supports redistributePar -decompose -fileHandler collated
- supports redistributePar -reconstruct
- does not support redistributePar with collated in redistribution mode
- noticed by Robin Knowles with `decomposePar -fields -copyZero`
The internals for the Foam:cp method combine the behaviour of
a regular `cp` and `cp -R` combined.
When source and target are both directories, the old implementation
created a subdirectory for the contents.
This normally fine,
ok: cp "path1/0/" to "path2/1" -> "path2/1/2"
BUT: cp "path1/0/" to "path2/0" -> "path2/0/0" !!
Now add check for the basenames first.
If they are identical, we probably meant to copy directory contents
only, without the additional subdir layer.
BUG: decomposePar -fields -copyZero copies the wrong directory
- was using the current time name (usually latest) instead of copying
the 0 directory
ENH: accept 0.orig directories as a fallback to copy if the 0 directory
is missing
- improved separation of patch creation that is also parallel-aware,
which now allows creation in parallel
- memory-safe use of PtrList for adding patches, with a more generalized
faPatchData helper
- use uindirectPrimitivePatch instead of indirectPrimitivePatch
for internal patch handling.
- align boundary methods with polyMesh equivalents
- system/faMeshDefinition instead of constant/faMesh/faMeshDefinition
as per blockMesh convention. Easier to manage definitions, easier
for cleanup.
- drop inheritence from GeoMesh.
- can now drop older Test-decomposePar for exploration purposes
and simply use -dry-run with the -domains and -method options.
- write VTK file instead of volScalarField in combination
with -dry-run and -cellDist.
Avoids adding any OpenFOAM fields and is usually faster to load.
Also easier to rename than a volScalarField would be when exploring
multiple decompositions.
- intended for the following type of use:
auto oldHandler = fileHandler(fileOperation::NewUncollated());
... do something that only works with uncollated
// Restore previous (if any)
if (oldHandler)
{
fileHandler(std::move(oldHandler));
}
ENH: make fileOperation distributed(bool) mutable
- use is "static-like" and akin to Pstream::parRun(bool),
thus allow toggling of the switch without a const_cast
Step 1.
include "addAllRegionOptions.H"
Adds the -allRegions, -regions and -region options to argList.
Step 2.
include "getAllRegionOptions.H"
Processes the options with -allRegions selecting everything
from the regionProperties.
OR use -regions to specify multiple regions (from
regionProperties), and can also contain regular expressions
OR use the -region option
Specifying a single -regions NAME (not a regular expresssion)
is the same as -region NAME and doesn't use regionProperties
Creates a `wordList regionNames`
Step 3.
Do something with the region names.
Either directly, or quite commonly with the following
include "createNamedMeshes.H"
Creates a `PtrList<fvMesh> meshes`
STYLE: add description to some central include files
- make regionName an optional constructor parameter, which eliminates
a separate set of constructors and construction tables. Adjust
internals to treat a missing/empty regionName as a no-op.
- pass in fallback dictionary content via new IOdictionary constructor
with a pointer
ENH: further relax check for matching number of processor dirs
- if the "numberOfSubdomains" entry is missing (or even zero)
ignore checks of processor dirs as meaningless.
- simplifies local toggling.
- centralize fileModification static variables into IOobject.
They were previously scattered between IOobject and regIOobject
- override casename, procesorCase flags to guarantee reconstructed
case to be written to the undecomposed directory
- alternative is to construct a Zero mesh on the undecomposed
runTime and add all other bits to that but that has not been
pursued
In reconstruct mode redistributePar will have
- master read undecomposed mesh
- slaves construct dummy mesh (0 faces/points etc.)
but correct patches and zones
so all processors have two valid meshes. This was
all handled inside fvMeshTools::newMesh and this
was behaving differently.
This adds a 'geometry' scheme section to the system/fvSchemes:
geometry
{
type highAspectRatio;
}
These 'fvGeometryMethod's are used to calculate
- deltaCoeffs
- nonOrthoCoeffs
etc and can even modify the basic face/cellCentres calculation.
- robuster matching behaviour when encountering paths that themselves
contain the word "processor" in them. For example,
"/path/processor0generation2/case1/processor10/system"
will now correctly match on processor10 instead of failing.
- use procRangeType for encapsulating the processor ranges
- provision for information of distributed vs non-distributed roots.
The information is currently available from the initial setup, but
can useful to access directly within fileOperation.
STYLE: modernize list iteration
- returns a range of `int` values that can be iterated across.
For example,
for (const int proci : Pstream::subProcs()) { ... }
instead of
for
(
int proci = Pstream::firstSlave();
proci <= Pstream::lastSlave();
++proci
)
{
...
}
- returns a range of `int` values that can be iterated across.
For example,
for (const int proci : Pstream::allProcs()) { ... }
instead of
for (label proci = 0; proci < Pstream::nProcs(); ++proci) { ... }
- with '&&' conditions, often better to check for non-null autoPtr
first (it is cheap)
- check as bool instead of valid() method for cleaner code, especially
when the wrapped item itself has a valid/empty or good.
Also when handling multiple checks.
Now
if (ptr && ptr->valid())
if (ptr1 || ptr2)
instead
if (ptr.valid() && ptr->valid())
if (ptr1.valid() || ptr2.valid())
- Favour use of argList methods that are more similar to dictionary
method names with the aim of reducing the cognitive load.
* Silently deprecate two-parameter get() method in favour of the
more familiar getOrDefault.
* Silently deprecate opt() method in favour of get()
These may be verbosely deprecated in future versions.
