- return autoPtr<token::compound> instead of the derived type,
otherwise cannot easily construct a token from it
ENH: additional typed version of refCompoundToken()
- symmetric with typed version of transferCompoundToken()
and isCompound()
- add ITstream::findCompound<Type>() method.
Useful for searching within token streams
- previously automatically skipped the first communicator (which was
assumed to be MPI_COMM_WORLD), but now simply rely on the
internal pendingMPIFree_ to track which communicators have actually
been allocated.
- UPstream::Communicator is similar to UPstream::Request to
wrap/unwrap MPI_Comm. Provides a 'lookup' method to transcribe
the internal OpenFOAM communicator tracking to the opaque wrapped
version.
- provide an 'openfoam_mpi.H' interfacing file, which includes
the <mpi.h> as well as casting routines.
Example (caution: ugly!)
MPI_Comm myComm =
PstreamUtils::Cast::to_mpi
(
UPstream::Communicator::lookup(UPstream::worldComm)
);
- replace point-to-point transmission of the argList args/options with
a broadcast. This is sufficient for most cases (without distributed
roots).
For "normal" cases (non-distributed roots) this will replace the
nProcs-1 messages with a single broadcast.
- for cases with distributed roots, distinguish between a single,
identical root and different roots. An identical root can also be
subsequently handled with a broadcast. Different roots will still
require individual point-to-point communication.
For cases with distributed roots, it will add the overhead of an
additional broadcast.
- adds consistency with regular point-to-point parallel streams.
ENH: add ITstream::tokens() methods
- useful, for example, to disambiguate constructing tokenList from
a ITstream.
ITstream& is = otherDict.lookup("original");
tokenList deepCopy(is); // Error: from Istream or tokenList??
tokenList deepCopy(is.tokens()); // OK: from tokenList
- The internal storage location of finite-area changes from being
piggybacked on the polyMesh registry to a having its own dedicated
registry:
* allows a clearer separation of field types without name clashes.
* prerequisite for supporting multiple finite-area regions (future)
Old Locations:
```
0/Us
constant/faMesh
system/faMeshDefinition
system/faSchemes
system/faSolution
```
New Locations:
```
0/finite-area/Us
constant/finite-area/faMesh
system/finite-area/faMeshDefinition (or system/faMeshDefinition)
system/finite-area/faSchemes
system/finite-area/faSolution
```
NOTES:
The new locations represent a hard change (breaking change) that
is normally to be avoided, but seamless compatibility handling
within the code was found to be unworkable.
The `foamUpgradeFiniteArea` script provides assistance with migration.
As a convenience, the system/faMeshDefinition location continues
to be supported (may be deprecated in the future).
- Delete() will perform a 'checkOut()' which does the following:
* remove the object from the registry
* delete the pointer (if owned by the registry)
- Release() does the following:
* transfer ownership of the pointer (if owned by the registry)
- Store() does the following:
* transfer ownership of the pointer to the registry
ENH: use UPtrList of sorted objects for MeshObject updates
- few allocations and lower overhead than using a HashTable,
ensures the same walk order over the objects (in parallel)
STYLE: adjust meshObject debug statements
STYLE: update code style for phi modification (engine motion)
ENH: pass isMeshUpdate param in fvMesh/polyMesh clearOut() methods
- top-level use of isMeshUpdate parameter to clearOut and
clearAddressing was being inadvertently filtered out
- after the modification of d578d48a4f, the parent was now actually
searched. However, should be returning "constant" and not trigger a
FatalError if the file/directory is not found.
- findStrings, findMatchingStrings now mostly covered by matching
intrinsics in wordRe and wordRes.
Add static wordRes match() and matching() variants
COMP: remove stringListOps include from objectRegistry.H
- was already noted for removal (NOV-2018)
- NewIFstream would read complete remote file to decide if
was collated.
- This limits files to 31bit size
- Instead now have master-only opening of file.
- Still has problem with refinement history/cellLevel etc.
- previously would always return "constant" as the instance for
an optional dir/file that wasn't found.
However, this meant retesting to screen out false positives.
Now support an additional parameter
'bool constant_fallback = ...'
to return "constant" or an empty word.
The method signature changes slightly with a new optional bool
parameter:
//! Return \c "constant" instead of \c "" if the search failed
const bool constant_fallback = true
ENH: code consolidation for findInstancePath
- relocate from Time to TimePaths and provide an additional static
version that is reused in fileOperations
BUG: distributedTriSurfaceMesh:::findLocalInstance broken (#3135)
- was not checking the parent at all.
COMP: remove unused findInstancePath(const fileName&, ..) method
- leave 'readContents' method name for exposed (public) methods.
Generally not a problem, but can confuse the compiler when various
public/private versions are available with the same number of
parameters.
STYLE: adjust meshObject debug statements
- 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
