- the type/name for field caching were saved as word, but ensight has
things like "tensor symm" etc, which do not parse very well as
'word'. Now save as 'string' type.
Backwards compatibility is OK since a word token will also be
readable as string etc.
- makes string reading consistent with fileName reading.
Related to #3133 to also allow compatibility when reading existing
dictionaries written with unquoted string contents.
- used defunct "processors/" directory naming, and includes are now
addressed by the file-handler anyhow.
ENH: support 'tutorials/Alltest -init'
- for copying/creating test directory without running
- in renumberMesh replace calculation of a subMesh connectivity
with calculation of the full mesh connectivity followed by subsetting
of the full adjacency matrix. This should reduce the overall number of
operations. (MR !669)
- added solidBodyMotionFunctions to topoSet which allows things like
moving cellSet selection for fvOptions etc.
COMP: relocate solidBodyMotionFunctions to meshTools
Co-authored-by: Kutalmis Bercin <>
- provide no_topology() characteristic to avoid triggering potentially
expensive mesh connectivity calculations when they are not required.
- remove/deprecate unused pointField references from the renumber
methods. These appear to have crept in from outer similarities
with decompositionMethod, but have no meaning for renumbering.
- remove/deprecate various unused aggregation renumberings since these
have been previously replaced by pre-calling calcCellCells, or
using bandCompression directly.
- make regionFaceOrder for block-wise renumbering optional and
treat as experimental (ie, default is now disabled).
The original idea was to sort the intra-region and inter-region faces
separately. However, this will mostly lead to non-upper triangular
ordering between regions, which checkMesh and others don't really like.
ENH: add timing information for various renumberMesh stages
ENH: add reset of clockTime and cpuTime increment
- simplifies section-wise timings
ENH: add globalIndex::null() and fieldTypes::processorType conveniences
- provides more central management of these characteristics
- particularly useful in these combinations:
1.
OCharStream buf;
// populate
ISpanStream is(buf.view());
// parse
2.
// read from file
ifile.getLine(str);
ISpanStream is(str);
// parse
These avoid making a copy of the character content, compared to
versions with stringstream:
OStringStream buf;
IStringStream is(buf.str());
- a few places still used listCombineReduce instead of
newer constructs (eg allGatherList) with fewer MPI calls.
- align triangulation handling of turbulentDFSEMInlet and
patchInjectionBase with meshTools/triangulatedPatch
(will ease future code refactoring)
- renumberMesh now has -dry-run, -write-maps, -no-fields,
-renumber-method, -renumber-coeffs options.
* Use -dry-run with -write-maps to visualize the before/after
effects of renumbering (creates a VTK file).
* -no-fields to renumber the mesh only.
This is useful and faster when the input fields are uniform
and the -overwrite option is specified.
* -renumber-method allows a quick means of specifying a different
default renumber method (instead of Cuthill-McKee).
The -renumber-coeffs option allows passing of dictionary content
for the method.
Examples,
// Different ways to specify reverse Cuthill-McKee
* -renumber-method RCM
* -renumber-coeffs 'reverse true;'
* -renumber-method CuthillMcKee
* -renumber-coeffs 'reverse true;'
* -renumber-coeffs 'method CuthillMcKee; reverse true;'
// Other (without dictionary coefficients)
* renumberMesh -renumber-method random
// Other (with dictionary coefficients)
renumberMesh \
-renumber-method spring \
-renumber-coeffs 'maxCo 0.1; maxIter 1000; freezeFraction 0.99;'
// Other (with additional libraries)
renumberMesh -renumber-method zoltan -lib zoltanRenumber
COMP: build zoltan renumbering to MPI-specific location
- zoltan and Sloan renumbering are now longer automatically linked to
the renumberMesh utility but must be separately loaded by a
command-line option or through a dictionary "libs" entry.
ENH: add output cellID for decomposePar -dry-run -cellDist
ENH: eliminate unnecessary duplicate communicator
- in globalMeshData previously had a comm_dup hack to avoid clashes
with deltaCoeffs calculations. However, this was largely due to a
manual implementation of reduce() that used point-to-point
communication. This has since been updated to use an MPI_Allreduce
and now an MPI_Allgather, neither of which need this hack.
- this was previously a UList instead of SubList,
but SubList supports better assignment of values
ENH: add invertOneToManyCompact
- returns a CompactListList<label> instead of labelListList, which
allows for reuse as partitioning table etc and/or slightly reduced
memory overhead
