- it seems that both sides of the ternary are evaluated despite
the divide-by-zero protection. Use volatile to force the compiler
to use in-order evaluation.
- attempt to minimize rounding in the cached time values
since these are also used to re-populate the case files
STYLE: remove ancient handling of "meshes" entry
- was superseded by "geometry" entry in OpenFOAM-1912 and later.
Now remove the transitional shim, which was in place for
restart migration from 1906.
CONFIG: downgrade non-uniform time from error to warning
- can be a spurious error when the deltaT is very small
CONFIG: support keywords 'minFreq', 'maxFreq'
- these are the updated naming for 'fl' and 'fu' (still supported)
- new format option keywords: timeFormat, timePrecision
CONFIG: default ensight output is now consistently BINARY
- this removes some uncertainty with the ensightWrite functionObject
which was previously dependent on the simulation writeFormat
and makes its behaviour consistent with foamToEnsight
Note: binary Ensight output is consistent with the
defaults for VTP output (inline binary)
ENH: minor adjustment of ensight writing methods
- retain group information when copying zones
- support construct empty (add details later)
- improve consistency for zone and boundaryMesh construction
- support front/back/both selection for faceZoneToCell
STYLE: prefer faceZone patch() method instead of operator()
STYLE: use std::unique_ptr instead of manual pointer management
- for zones and core patch types.
Easier data management, allows default destructors (for example)
- use add_tokens() instead of the old multi-parameter
append(.., bool) method which was misleading since it added tokens
at the current tokenIndex, not at the end.
- stringify ITstream contents with CharStream instead of StringStream.
Allows string_view for copying out the content.
ENH: set namedDictionary dictionary name from Istream
- provides context for error messages etc (#2990)
- now mark methods with strict deprecation, to make it easier to find
their use but without adding extra compilation noise for others
ENH: minor update for Enum methods and iterator
- add warnOnly (failsafe) option for readEntry and getOrDefault
- add good() method to Enum iterator (simliar to HashTable)
- replace unused/fragile Enum find() methods with iterator return
that can be used more generally
- explicit use of UPstream::worldComm in globalIndex methods
for more clarity
- adjust method declaration ordering:
de-emphasize the processor-local convenience methods
- consistent use of leading tag dispatch,
remove unused enum-based dispatch tag
- add begin()/cbegin() with offset (as per List containers)
BUG: missing use of communicator in globalIndex gatherNonLocal
- does not affect any existing code (which all use worldComm anyhow)
- support std::string_view (c++17) or span view (older c++) of stream
buffer contents. This simplifies formatting + reparsing.
Example,
OCharStream os;
os << ...;
ISpanStream is(os.view());
is >> ...;
- additional release() method for ICharStream, OCharStream
that returns the contents as a DynamicList<char> and resets the stream.
- provide a str() method for API compatibility with older
std::ostringstream etc.
- change write(const string&) to write(const std::string&).
This allows output of std::string without an intermediate copy.
- additional writeQuoted method to handle range of char data:
writeQuoted(const char* str, std::streamsize len, bool)
This helps with supporting string_view and span<char>
- add operator<< for stdFoam::span<char> and std::string_view (c++17)
- avoid duplicate code in OBJstream
STYLE: add override keyword for IO stream methods
- default construct is now identical to HashTable(Foam::zero).
It performs no allocation and is also noexcept.
The previously used default capacity (128) was a holdover from
much older versions where set/insert did not properly handle
insertion into a table with zero capacity (number of buckets).
- earlier deletion of unpopulated HashTable on resizing:
If the table is already clear (ie, has no entries),
can immediately remove the old internal table before reallocating
the newly sized table, which may avoid a needless memory spike.
- reserve() method:
Naming and general behaviour as per std::unordered_map.
It behaves similarly to the resize() method but is supplied the
number of elements instead of the capacity, which can be a more
natural way of specifying the storage requirements.
Additionally, reserve() will only increase the table capacity for
behaviour similar to DynamicList and std::vector, std::string etc.
Old:
labelHashSet set;
set.resize(2*nElems);
Now:
labelHashSet set;
set.reserve(nElems);
- remove unused HashTable(Istream&, label) constructor
STYLE: static_cast of (nullptr) and std::fill_n for filling table
- changes the addressed list size without affecting list allocation.
Can be useful for the following type of coding pattern:
- pre-allocate a List with some max content length
- populate with some content (likely not the entire pre-allocated size)
- truncate the list to the length of valid content
- process the List
- discard the List
Since the List is being discarded, using resize_unsafe() instead of
resize() avoids an additional allocation with the new size and
copying/moving of the elements.
This programming pattern can also be used when the List is being
returned from a subroutine, and carrying about a bit of unused memory
is less important than avoiding reallocation + copy/move.
If used improperly, it can obviously result in addressing into
unmanaged memory regions (ie, 'unsafe').
- shrink_to_fit()
corresponds to std::vector naming.
For DynamicList it is a *binding* request.
- shrink_unsafe()
simply adjusts the capacity() to match the
current size() without forcing a re-allocation.
Useful when collapsing to a non-dynamic list to avoid reallocation
and copying contents. The memory cleanup will still occur properly
at a later stage.
- DynamicList::swap(List&)
simple recovery of content into a non-dynamic List that also
ensures that the capacity is correctly updated.
STYLE: promote List::capacity() to public visibility (like std::vector)
STYLE: remove unused expandStorage() method
- simply a wrapper for resize(capacity())
- when running with "errors warn;" it will reset the warnings counter
(if any) when it returns to a good state.
This re-enables un-suppressed warnings for the next cycle.
Also reset the warnings counter on end().
ENH: add short-circuit in HashTable::erase(key)
- skip and return false if the table is empty or the key is not found.
This makes for faster no-op behaviour.
- for workflows with appearing/disappearing patches (for example)
can specify that empty surfaces should be ignored or warned about
instead of raising a FatalError.
Note that this handling is additional to the regular top-level
"errors" specification. So specifying 'strict' will only actually
result in a FatalError if the "errors" does not trap errors.
- "ignore" : any empty surfaces are simply ignored and no
file output (besides the header).
- "warn" : empty surfaces are warned about a few times (10)
and the file output contains a NaN entry
- "strict" : corresponds to the default behaviour.
Throws a FatalError if the surface is empty.
This error may still be caught by the top-level "errors" handling.
