- Extended runTimePostProcessing to include access to "live"
simulation objects such a geometry patches and sampled surfaces
stored on the "functionObjectObjects" registry.
- Add 'live' runTimePostProcessing of cloud data.
Extracts position and fields from the cloud via its objectRegistry writer
- For the "live" simulation objects, there are two new volume filters
that work directly with the OpenFOAM volume fields:
* iso-surface
* cutting planes
Both use the VTK algorithms directly and support multiple values.
Eg, can make multiple iso-levels or multiple planes parallel to each
other.
- When VTK has been compiled with MPI-support, parallel rendering will
be used.
- Additional title text properties (shadow, italic etc)
- Simplified handling of scalar-bar and visibility switches
- Support multiple text positions. Eg, for adding watermark text.
- support .vtp format for geometry, surface, line, cloud.
- use native reader for handling vtk, vtp, obj, stl surface files.
For other formats, use the MeshedSurface (the surfMesh lib) to
handle reading and Foam::vtk::Tools::Patch to handle the
conversion to vtkPolyData. This combination is more memory efficient.
- update tutorial case to include vtp surface geometry
- this allows more use of the runTimePostProcessing functionObject
that will fail more gracefully if the proper version could not be
built.
The dummy functionObject simply emits a message that it is not available.
- as part of the cleanup of dictionary access methods (c6520033c9)
made the dictionary class single inheritance from IDLList<entry>.
This eliminates any ambiguities for iterators and allows
for simple use of range-for looping.
Eg,
for (const entry& e : topDict))
{
Info<< "entry:" << e.keyword() << " is dict:" << e.isDict() << nl;
}
vs
forAllConstIter(dictionary, topDict, iter))
{
Info<< "entry:" << iter().keyword()
<< " is dict:" << iter().isDict() << nl;
}
