- in most cases a parallel-consistent order is required.
Even when the order is not important, it will generally require
fewer allocations to create a UPtrList of entries instead of a
HashTable or even a wordList.
- with the changes in vtkCellArray, the legacy files now have
OFFSET, CONNECTIVITY information.
- support reading of both versions.
- continue to generate legacy format 2.0, since this is what
many programs still expect
- previously simply read files until the input stream went bad and no
more lines could be read. With the more stringent checking of
values read (commit 0ce7e364a4) this approach causes problems.
Use the underlying tokenizer instead to decide about termination.
- 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
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.
