- CGAL itself includes its library dependencies, we only need to
provide the -L... option to the proper ThirdParty locations.
Should help improve general build robustness.
- instead we use the CGAL settings directly since they have the
same option of (version | system | none)
- may wish to review this again in the future.
- Normally use '()' to deference. This has extra safety and issues a
fatal error if the underlying pointer is not valid.
However, in some cases we are happy with getting a null reference.
The refOrNull() method returns the reference without any checking.
Usage example:
autoPtr<OFstream> osPtr;
if (Pstream::master())
{
osPtr.reset(new OFstream(...));
}
writeViaMaster(osPtr.refOrNull());
- The writeViaMaster() call takes an OFstream reference,
but this is only used directly on the master.
The slaves will pass things through to the master.
- Some commonly used write methods that are independent of
the calling context (ie, 2D/3D data, geometry, fields)
- Provide singleton null() for ensightFile, ensightGeoFile.
Can be used for MPI slaves that need a file reference for their
methods, but will never write to it, but it is also reasonable
to use an autoPtr with rawRef() for that as well.

Block description
For a given block, the correspondence between the ordering of
vertex labels and face labels is shown below.
For vertex numbering in the sequence 0 to 7 (block, centre):
faces 0 (f0) and 1 are left and right, respectively;
faces 2 and 3 are bottom and top;
and faces 4 and 5 are front the back:
4 ---- 5
f3 |\ |\ f5
| | 7 ---- 6 \
| 0 |--- 1 | \
| \| \| f4
f2 3 ---- 2
f0 ----- f1

1. Spaced ending of multi-level template parameters are not allowed, such as:
List<List<scalar> >
which instead should be:
List<List<scalar>>
2. The use of the 'NULL' macro should be replaced by 'nullptr'
to ensure 'patchType' is set as specified.
Required substantial change to the organization of the reading of the
'value' entry requiring careful testing and there may be some residual
issues remaining. Please report any problems with the reading and
initialization of patch fields.
Resolves bug-report http://bugs.openfoam.org/view.php?id=2266
e.g. for the cavity tutorial the moving wall patch can be specified in
terms of the block vertices as before:
boundary
(
movingWall
{
type wall;
faces
(
(3 7 6 2)
);
}
.
.
.
or the new specification of the face as block 0, block face 3:
boundary
(
movingWall
{
type wall;
faces
(
(0 3)
);
}
- Less looping when detecting lagrangian clouds and their fields.
- Avoid using Time::setTime() and IOobjectList in tight loops.
They both kill performance immensely.
ENH: provide a -noLagrangian option to foamToEnsight and foamToEnsightParts
for even more control.
- The new field needs initialization with a dimensioned<Type> not just
the dimensionSet.
- The new field was also incorrectly being registered, which could
cause issues later.
