- parallel output.
The output is now postProcessing/<name> for similar reasoning as
mentioned in #866 - better alignment with other function objects, no
collision with foamToVTK output.
- align the input parameters with those of vtkCloud so that we can
specify the ASCII precision and the padding width for the output
file names as well.
- emit TimeValue field, support file series generation
- support internal or boundary meshes, combining the result into a vtm
file.
- can restrict conversion based on zone names, enclosing volumes,
bounding box
- use parallel list writing, beginDataArray methods.
- use static_assert to restrict conversion of non-label integral types
- cache .vtp.series information by fileName instead of by cloud name.
This issues if the output directory changes, and simplifies code.
ENH: emit TimeValue in files generated by vtkCloud
- additional information for passing to ParaView
ENH: vtkCloud output to postProcessing/ (issue #866)
- better alignment with other function objects, no collision with
foamToVTK output.
- Provides a means of accumulating file entries for generating vtm
by accumulate blocks, datasets and writing them later.
Only a single block depth is currently supported and the methods
are kept fairly simple.
- Output formats such as vtp, vtu follow a particular internal data
structure (HEAD, FIELD_DATA, PIECE, CELL_DATA/POINT_DATA) and other
output conventions. This writer base tracks these expected output
states internally to help avoid logic errors in the callers.
- parallel list output for foamVtkOutput
- simplified '.series' file output
- beginDataArray() method instead of openDataArray() + closeTag()
since this seems to be the most common use anyhow.
With an optional argument for leaving the tag open, this works the
same as openDataArray() which may be deprecated in the future.
- begin/end methods for CellData, PointData, FieldData (commonly used)
- templating parameters for file headers, content version,
legacy fields. This improves coding robustness and convenience of use.
- use formatter and higher-level methods for legacy output
- attribute quoting character now part of the formatter itself
instead of as an argument for xmlAttr().
Toggle with quoting() method.
- pair-wise processing of xml attributes, which also allows them to be
passed as optional entries when creating an xml tag.
- xmlComment with multiple arguments
- allows cell point labels will use global numbering, but only for
unmerged points. We'd ideally like to avoid point merging per se,
and instead use VTK point blanking instead (as required).
This approach allows parallel collation of the output into a single
piece directly.
- Within strings it is preferable to use the "<etc>" instead.
Most use cases for the old "~OpenFOAM" expansion have been obsoleted
by the #includeEtc directive.
- 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()
- foamVersion.H now includes stdFoam.H for consistent use
of compatibility compiler defines.
- move forward declaration of Detail, Module namespaces to stdFoam.H
- doxygen documentation of Foam namespace in stdFoam.H
- generalize output text wrapping, use for usage notes
- add -help-man option for generating manpage content for any OpenFOAM
application or solver.
bin/tools/foamCreateManpage as helper
- 'unfriend' operators on dimensionSet, since they operate without
requiring access to non-public members.
- add missing invTransform() function for dimensionSet.
- make inv(const dimensionSet&) available as
operator~(const dimensionSet&), which can be used instead
of (dimless/ds).
- writing of dictionary entry with the name of the dimensionedType
suppressed if it is identical to the keyword.
This corresponds to the input requirements.
- deprecate dimensionedType constructors using an Istream in favour of
versions accepting a keyword and a dictionary.
Dictionary entries are almost the exclusive means of read
constructing a dimensionedType. By construct from the dictionary
entry instead of doing a lookup() first, we can detect possible
input errors such as too many tokens as a result of a input syntax
error.
Constructing a dimensionedType from a dictionary entry now has
two forms.
1. dimensionedType(key, dims, dict);
This is the constructor that will normally be used.
It accepts entries with optional leading names and/or
dimensions. If the entry contains dimensions, they are
verified against the expected dimensions and an IOError is
raised if they do not correspond. On conclusion, checks the
token stream for any trailing rubbish.
2. dimensionedType(key, dict);
This constructor is used less frequently.
Similar to the previous description, except that it is initially
dimensionless. If entry contains dimensions, they are used
without further verification. The constructor also includes a
token stream check.
This constructor is useful when the dimensions are entirely
defined from the dictionary input, but also when handling
transition code where the input dimensions are not obvious from
the source.
This constructor can also be handy when obtaining values from
a dictionary without needing to worry about the input dimensions.
For example,
Info<< "rho: " << dimensionedScalar("rho", dict).value() << nl;
This will accept a large range of inputs without hassle.
ENH: consistent handling of dimensionedType for inputs (#1083)
BUG: incorrect Omega dimensions (fixes#2084)
- use forwarding templates for the factory method
- avoid double use of dynamic_cast.
Don't need implicit use in isA<>, can use result directly
STYLE: updated iteration over HashTable of mesh objects
- was using coordinate-system and transform() which is the
local-to-global mapping, whereas it should be invTransform() which
is the global-to-local mapping
- this seems to be the only reliable means of obtaining the values.
Using typeName_() yields the wrong value.
Using the typeName causes initialization issues
(segfault when executing on some systems).
