- The only reasonable means of mirroring the data layout.
The '{}' delimiters mark the extent of the binary writes.
The primitives 'label' and 'scalar' are directly supported and correspond
to known byte widths.
Using "List<scalar>" was a bad choice, since this triggers unpleasant
tokenizing behaviour. Instead use 'scalars' as a provisional placeholder
to indicates a list of scalar values. However, there is currently no
support for actually handling lists of scalars, for several reasons:
* The information is not available at compile-time.
The cloud or parcel must be queried. And it must be guaranteed
that this value is consistent for the entire cloud.
* Binary output of lists is currently not great for determining the
the encoded width:
- A zero-size list is a single '0'.
- The leading size is a non-constant number of digits.
- There are prefix/suffix newlines need to be tagged and
skipped.
The special '*' (glob) token indicates that the remaining content
has a dynamic variable length and nothing reasonable can be known
about their sizes. This is exemplified by the collision records.
About OpenFOAM
OpenFOAM is a free, open source CFD software package developed primarily by OpenCFD since 2004 and is currently distributed by ESI-OpenCFD and the OpenFOAM Foundation. It has a large user base across most areas of engineering and science, from both commercial and academic organisations. OpenFOAM has an extensive range of features to solve anything from complex fluid flows involving chemical reactions, turbulence and heat transfer, to acoustics, solid mechanics and electromagnetics.
