Previously Fstreams had stdStream() as a public member and the other
streams had stream() as a protected member.
All serial streams now have public method stdStream() and the stream()
method has been eliminated. This is not only more consistent, but also
avoids confusion (for the programmer, not the compiler) with the
ITstream::stream() method.
- regIOobject: don't re-register an unregister object on rename/assignment
- Hasher: split-off HasherInt with uint32_t specializations
- IOobject: writeBanner/writeDivider return Stream for easier chaining.
... also dropped some namespace bracketing while I was at it.
- removed the previously added fileName type(), isDir(), isFile() methods.
- added optional bool parameter to isFile() function to explicitly
enable/disable the check for gzip files.
- fixed minor bugginess where the default usage of isFile() would result in
false positive matches.
- be slightly more stringent and use isDir() and isFile() instead of
exists() function when we actually know the expected type.
- can use 'XX.empty()' instead of 'XX.size() == 0', 'XX.size() < 1' or
'XX.size() <= 0' or for simpler coding.
It also has the same number of characters as '!XX.size()' and /might/ be
more readable
- many size checking had 'XX.size() > 0', 'XX.size() != 0', or 'XX.size() >= 1'
when a simple 'XX.size()' suffices
- Istream and Ostream now retain backslashes when reading/writing strings.
The previous implementation simply discarded them, except when used to
escape a double-quote or a newline. It is now vitally important to retain
them, eg for quoting regular expression meta-characters.
The backslash continues to be used as an escape character for double-quote
and newline, but otherwise get passed through "as-is" without any other
special meaning (ie, they are *NOT* C-style strings). This helps avoid
'backslash hell'!
For example,
string: "match real dots \.+, question mark \? or any char .*"
C-style: "match real dots \\.+, question mark \\? or any char .*"
- combined subfiles in db/IOstreams, some had more copyright info than code
- OPstreamI.H contained only private methods, moved into OPstream.C
Are these really correct?
IOstreams/Istream.H:# include "HashTable.C"
token/token.H:#define NoHashTableC
