- in addition to managing different vendors and versions, it may also
be necessary or desirable to have a particular variant
(eg, profiling, release, etc).
Devise a new meaningful name for the variant and create a
corresponding wmake rule.
Eg, SYSTEMOPENMPI-profiling with a corresponding
"wmake/rules/linux64Gcc/mplibSYSTEMOPENMPI-profiling" file
that has suitable content for your system.
CONFIG: intel-mpi use intel64/ paths only for config and wmake rules (#1153)
- previously adjusted the config files, but missed the changes
required for the wmake rules too.
Now simply migrate to using "intel64/{include,bin,lib}"
instead of the older naming "{include,bin,lib}64"
These changes work since at least intel-mpi 2015 (5.x), but possibly
earlier as well
- was WM_PROJECT_API in the environment and FOAM_API in dictionaries.
Make these both consistently FOAM_API.
This is a non-breaking change, since the value of WM_PROJECT_API
(added in 1812) and/or FOAM_API is purely informative.
For the current correct values, always use
* foamEtcFile -show-api
* wmakeBuildInfo -show-api
- If using a non-clang compiler suite (gcc, intel, etc) the additional
lbraries required for mesa with llvm pipelines may not be found.
Provide a mesa_llvm configuration with in the 'vtk' config file.
Can use the usual types of settings
* mesa_llvm=llvm-4.0.1
* mesa_llvm=none
* mesa_llvm=system
- looks slightly messier without associative arrays, but improves
portability. Should now also work with dash.
STYLE: support wmakeBuildInfo -cmp and -check options as equivalent
Averages columns of cells for layered meshes.
For each patch face, calculates the average value of all cells attached in
the patch face normal direction, and then pushes the average value back
to all cells in the column.
Useful for channel-like cases where we want to average fields in the
spanwise direction.
Example of function object specification:
columnAverage1
{
type columnAverage;
libs ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
...
patches (front side);
fields (U p);
}
Where the entries comprise:
\table
Property | Description | Required | Default value
type | type name: fieldMinMax | yes |
patches | list of patches to collapse onto | yes |
fields | list of fields to process | yes |
\endtable
- this corresponds to 'never match', which may be useful in combination
with -constant selection.
Eg,
surfaceMeshTriangulate -constant -time none
selects only the constant entry and suppresses any automatic time loop
STYLE: adjust help for the standard -times option
- indicate that times can be comma or space separated, since this is
otherwise not apparent. Don't mention semicolon separators in the help
since that just adds even more clutter.
- 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
- note that it does not actually triangulate unless necessary, should
probably receive a new name.
- use newer constructs for handling processor/non-processor patch
selection etc.
