- accept IOobjectOption::registerOption with (MUST_READ, NO_WRITE)
being implicit. Direct handling of IOobjectOption itself, for
consistency with IOobject.
The disabling of object registration is currently the only case
where IOobjectList doesn't use default construction parameters,
but it was previously a bit awkward to specify.
- since ensight format is always float and also always written
component-wise, perform the double -> float narrowing when
extracting the components. This reduces the amount of data
transferred between processors.
ENH: avoid vtk/ensight parallel communication of empty messages
- since ensight writes by element type (eg, tet, hex, polyhedral) the
individual written field sections will tend to be relatively sparse.
Skip zero-size messages, which should help reduce some of the
synchronization bottlenecks.
ENH: use 'data chunking' when writing ensight files in parallel
- since ensight fields are written on a per-element basis, the
corresponding segment can become rather sparsely distributed. With
'data chunking', we attempt to get as many send/recv messages in
before flushing the buffer for writing. This should make the
sequential send/recv less affected by the IO time.
ENH: allow use of an external buffer when writing ensight components
STYLE: remove last vestiges of autoPtr<ensightFile> for output routines
- consistent with sumOp
ENH: globalIndex with gatherNonLocal tag, and use leading dispatch tags
- useful for gather/write where the master data can be written
separately. Leading vs trailing dispatch tags for more similarity to
other C++ conventions.
- replaced ad hoc handling of formatOptions with coordSetWriter and
surfaceWriter helpers.
Accompanying this change, it is now possible to specify "default"
settings to be inherited, format-specific settings and have a
similar layering with surface-specific overrides.
- snappyHexMesh now conforms to setFormats
Eg,
formatOptions
{
default
{
verbose true;
format binary;
}
vtk
{
precision 10;
}
}
surfaces
{
surf1
{
...
formatOptions
{
ensight
{
scale 1000;
}
}
}
}
- support globalIndex for points/faces as an output parameter,
which allows reuse in subsequent field merge operations.
- make pointMergeMap an optional parameter. This information is not
always required. Eg, if only using gatherAndMerge to combine faces
but without any point fields.
ENH: make globalIndex() noexcept, add globalIndex::clear() method
- end_value() corresponds to the infrequently used after() method, but
with naming that corresponds better to iterator naming conventions.
Eg,
List<Type> list = ...;
labelRange range = ...;
std::transform
(
(list.data() + range.begin_value()),
(list.data() + range.end_value()),
outIter,
op
);
- promote min()/max() methods from labelRange to IntRange base class
STYLE: change timeSelector from "is-a" to "has-a" scalarRanges.
STYLE: combine templated/non-templated headers (reduced clutter)
STYLE: use hitPoint(const point&) combined setter
- same as setHit() + setPoint(const point&)
ENH: expose and use labelOctBits::pack method for addressing
- construct boundBox from Pair<point> of min/max limits,
make sortable
- additional bounding box intersections (linePointRef), add noexcept
- templated access for boundBox hex-corners
(used to avoid temporary point field).
Eg, unrolled plane/bound-box intersection with early exit
- bounding box grow() to expand box by absolute amounts
Eg,
bb.grow(ROOTVSMALL); // Or: bb.grow(point::uniform(ROOTVSMALL));
vs
bb.min() -= point::uniform(ROOTVSMALL);
bb.max() += point::uniform(ROOTVSMALL);
- treeBoundBox bounding box extend with two or three parameters.
The three parameter version includes grow(...) for reduced writing.
Eg,
bb = bb.extend(rndGen, 1e-4, ROOTVSMALL);
vs
bb = bb.extend(rndGen, 1e-4);
bb.min() -= point::uniform(ROOTVSMALL);
bb.max() += point::uniform(ROOTVSMALL);
This also permits use as const variables or parameter passing.
Eg,
const treeBoundBox bb
(
treeBoundBox(some_points).extend(rndGen, 1e-4, ROOTVSMALL)
);
ENH: extend rmDir to handle removal of empty directories only
- recursively remove directories that only contain other directories
but no other contents. Treats dead links as non-content.
- stem(), replace_name(), replace_ext(), remove_ext() etc
- string::contains() method - similar to C++23 method
Eg,
if (keyword.contains('/')) ...
vs
if (keyword.find('/') != std::string::npos) ...
- avoids redundant dictionary searching
STYLE: remove dictionary lookupOrDefaultCompat wrapper
- deprecated and replaced by getOrDefaultCompat (2019-05).
The function is usually specific to internal keyword upgrading
(version compatibility) and unlikely to exist in any user code.
- read construct from dictionary.
Calling syntax similar to dimensionedType, dimensionedSet,...
Replaces the older getEntry(), getOptional() static methods
- support readIfPresent
- noexcept on some Time methods
ENH: pass through is_oriented() method for clearer coding
- use logical and/or/xor instead of bitwise versions (clearer intent)
Header information now includes, e.g.
f [Hz] vs P(f) [Pa]
Lower frequency: 2.500000e+01
Upper frequency: 5.000000e+03
Window model: Hanning
Window number: 2
Window samples: 512
Window overlap %: 5.000000e+01
dBRef : 2.000000e-05
Area average: false
Area sum : 6.475194e-04
Number of faces: 473
Note: output files now have .dat extension
- for example,
defaultFieldValues
(
areaScalarFieldValue h 0.00014
);
regions
(
clipPlaneToFace
{
point (0 0 0);
normal (1 0 0);
fieldValues
(
areaScalarFieldValue h 0.00015
);
}
);
ENH: additional clipPlaneTo{Cell,Face,Point} topo sets
- less cumbersome than defining a semi-infinite bounding box
- remedy by performing the attach() action sequentially (as per
stitchMesh changes). This ensures that the current point addressing
is always used and avoids references to the already-merged points
(which is what causes the failure).
ENH: improve handling of empty patch removal
- only remove empty *merged* patches, but leave any other empty
patches untouched since they may intentional placeholders for other
parts of a workflow.
- remove any empty point/face zones created for patch merging
- whichPolyPatches() = the polyPatches related to the areaMesh.
This helps when pre-calculating (and caching) any patch-specific
content.
- whichPatchFaces() = the poly-patch/patch-face for each of the faceLabels.
This allows more convenient lookups and, since the list is cached on
the area mesh, reduces the number of calls to whichPatch() etc.
- whichFace() = the area-face corresponding to the given mesh-face
ENH: more flexible/consistent volume->area mapper functions
- include -no-libs option by default, similar to '-lib',
which makes it available to all solvers/utilities.
Add argList allowLibs() method to query it.
- relocate with/no functionObjects logic from Time to argList
itself as argList allowFunctionObjects()
- add libs/functionObjects override handling to decomposePar etc
ENH: report the stream relativeName for IOerrors (see c9333a5ac8)
- simplifies coding
* finishedRequest(), waitRequest(), waitRequests() with parRun guards
* nRequests() is noexcept
- more consistent use of UPstream::defaultCommsType in branching
- the output write scaling should be applied *after* undoing the
effects of the specified rotation centre. Fixes#2566
ENH: update option names for transformPoints and surfaceTransformPoints
- prefer '-auto-centre' and '-centre', but also accept the previous
options '-auto-origin' and '-origin' as aliases.
Changing to '-centre' avoids possible confusion with
coordinate system origin().
