- Pstreams can be ascii/binary but are always currentVersion
- rename UIPstream externalBuf_ to 'recvBuf_' for similar naming as
PstreamBuffers and symmetry with UOPstream::sendBuf_
- specific enum size for commsType (for more compact structures in the
future). Default construct lists items.
BUG: possible incidental indexing in UIPstream::read(char*, std::streamsize)
- raw reading had been split into beginRawRead(), readRaw().
However, this could change the current input position (due to word
boundary alignment), even if the expected count is zero. Make a
no-op for count == 0. This mirrors UOPstream::write behaviour.
- improves interface and data consistency.
Older signatures are still active (via the Foam_IOstream_extras
define).
- refine internals for IOstreamOption streamFormat, versionNumber
ENH: improve data alignment for IOstream and IOobject
- fit sizeof label/scalar into unsigned char
STYLE: remove dead code
- token class handles both single and double quoted strings. Single quoted
strings are used to tag regular expressions. At the moment this is just
syntactical sugar and isn't (yet) treated differently than double-quoted
strings.
- write output for std:string, with/without single quotes with the method
writeQuoted(). Use distinct method name to avoid inadvertent compiler
conversions.
- write wordRe and keyType using writeQuoted()
- 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
