- silently deprecate 'startsWith', 'endsWith' methods
(added in 2016: 2b14360662), in favour of
'starts_with', 'ends_with' methods, corresponding to C++20 and
allowing us to cull then in a few years.
- handle single character versions of starts_with, ends_with.
- add single character version of removeEnd and silently deprecate
removeTrailing which did the same thing.
- drop the const versions of removeRepeated, removeTrailing.
Unused and with potential confusion.
STYLE: use shrink_to_fit(), erase()
- this largely reverts 3f0f218d88 and 4ee65d12c4.
Consistent addressing with support for wrapped pointer types (eg,
autoPtr, std::unique_ptr) has proven to be less robust than desired.
Thus rescind HashTable iterator '->' dereferencing (from APR-2019).
- change contiguous from a series of global functions to separate
templated traits classes:
- is_contiguous
- is_contiguous_label
- is_contiguous_scalar
The static constexpr 'value' and a constexpr conversion operator
allow use in template expressions. The change also makes it much
easier to define general traits and to inherit from them.
The is_contiguous_label and is_contiguous_scalar are special traits
for handling data of homogeneous components of the respective types.
- adjust naming of quaternion 'rotationSequence' to be 'eulerOrder'
to reflect its purpose.
- provide rotation matrices directly for these rotation orders in
coordinateRotations::euler for case in which the rotation tensor
is required but not a quaternion.
- Eg, with surface writers now in surfMesh, there are fewer libraries
depending on conversion and sampling.
COMP: regularize linkage ordering and avoid some implicit linkage (#1238)
- remove writeGeometry() in favour of write() and make it pure virtual
so that all writers must explicitly deal with it.
- establish proxy extension at construction time and treated as an
invariant thereafter. This avoids potentially surprising changes in
behaviour when writing.
- While a rectilinear mesh can be created with blockMesh, not every mesh
created with blockMesh will satisfy the requirements for being a
rectilinear mesh.
This alternative to blockMesh uses a single block that is aligned
with the xy-z directions and specifications of the control points,
mesh divisions and expansion ratios. For example,
x
{
points ( -13.28 -0.10 6.0 19.19 );
nCells ( 10 12 10 );
ratios ( 0.2 1 5 );
}
y { ... }
z { ... }
With only one block, the boundary patch definition is simple and the
canonical face number is used directly. For example,
inlet
{
type patch;
faces ( 0 );
}
outlet
{
type patch;
faces ( 1 );
}
sides
{
type patch;
faces ( 2 3 );
}
...
- After a mesh is defined, it is trivial to retrieve mesh-related
information such as cell-volume, cell-centres for any i-j-k location
without an actual polyMesh.
STYLE: remove -noFunctionObjects from blockMesh
- no time loop, so function objects cannot be triggered anyhow.
- The writers have changed from being a generic state-less set of
routines to more properly conforming to the normal notion of a writer.
These changes allow us to combine output fields (eg, in a single
VTK/vtp file for each timestep).
Parallel data reduction and any associated bookkeeping is now part
of the surface writers.
This improves their re-usability and avoids unnecessary
and premature data reduction at the sampling stage.
It is now possible to have different output formats on a per-surface
basis.
- A new feature of the surface sampling is the ability to "store" the
sampled surfaces and fields onto a registry for reuse by other
function objects.
Additionally, the "store" can be triggered at the execution phase
as well
- changed the sectorCoeffs keyword to 'point' from 'axisPt'
for more similarity with other dictionaries.
Continue to accept 'axisPt' for compatibility.
