- the ensightReadFile init() now automatically sets up binary/ascii
(for geometry files) and checks for the transient "BEGIN TIME STEP"
marker. If found, will also populate the file offsets for each of
the timesteps. If no corresponding footer is found (which would be
very inefficient), it simply pretends that there is only a single
time step instead of performing a costly file scan.
- parsing of the ensight case file now also supports the use of
filename numbers:
as an alternative to
filename start number:
filename increment:
- improved parsing robustness of "time values:" entry.
Can now also have contents on the same line as the introducer.
ENH: base-level adjustments for writing transient single-file
- beginGeometry() is now separated out from file creation.
- in append mode, ensightFile and ensightGeoFile will attempt to
parse existing time-step information.
- 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
- some central (core) bits under fileFormats,
- general surface reading relocated from sampling to surfMesh since it
does not use any sampling-specific components and will permit
re-use in meshTools (for example)
- remove old mask, subDir methods from ensightFile which were
previously relocated to ensightCase
- improve handling of 'undef' values when generating and reading,
respect Ensight component ordering when reading.
STYLE: qualify format/version/compression with IOstreamOption not IOstream
STYLE: reduce number of lookups when scanning {fa,fv}Solution
STYLE: call IOobject::writeEndDivider as static
- use std::string instead of c-string for the string constants
- centralize some definitions of resources into foamVersion.H
Now expose some of the hard-coded values used in foamEtcFiles()
so that they can be known or even overridden as required.
Relocate to src/OpenFOAM/include as a constant location.
- For compatibility, access to the old global names is provided via
macros
#define FOAMversion foamVersion::version
#define FOAMbuild foamVersion::build
#define FOAMbuildArch foamVersion::buildArch
- this isolation makes it easier to provide additional scoped methods
for dealing with version related information. Eg, printBuildInfo()
- since PackedBoolList is now a compatibility typedef for bitSet,
it is useful to have an additional means of distinction.
STYLE: simplify internal version tests and compiler defines.
- the API version is now conveyed via the OPENFOAM define directly.
The older OPENFOAM_PLUS define is provided for existing code.
- 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.
