- snGrad, internalField, neighbourField.
Functional use as per swak: "... + internalField(T) ..."
ENH: additional volume/patch expressions
- deltaT()
STYLE: rename exprDriverWriter -> fvExprDriverWriter
- the original class name was a misnomer since it holds a reference
to fvExprDriver
BUG: expression faceToPoint/pointToFace definitions were flipped
ENH: refactor expression hierarchy and code style
- handle TimeState reference at the top-level for simpler derivations
- unified internal search parameters (cruft)
- new '-ascii' option to write in ASCII format instead of the
controlDict setting. This can be useful when generating fields that
should be parsed with other tools, or for visual inspection.
- correct mismatch of option names and lookups
- can use either command-line option "-load-fields" or dictionary
entry "readFields" to specify field names to be preloaded.
Essentially the same functionality as with a readFields function
object but with a lot less typing.
- tutorial examples provided by Ryan Danks <ryan.danks@rwdi.com>
illustrate using setExpr* utilities to calculate a quantity
as a post-processing step.
- with '&&' conditions, often better to check for non-null autoPtr
first (it is cheap)
- check as bool instead of valid() method for cleaner code, especially
when the wrapped item itself has a valid/empty or good.
Also when handling multiple checks.
Now
if (ptr && ptr->valid())
if (ptr1 || ptr2)
instead
if (ptr.valid() && ptr->valid())
if (ptr1.valid() || ptr2.valid())
- Favour use of argList methods that are more similar to dictionary
method names with the aim of reducing the cognitive load.
* Silently deprecate two-parameter get() method in favour of the
more familiar getOrDefault.
* Silently deprecate opt() method in favour of get()
These may be verbosely deprecated in future versions.
