- in most cases a parallel-consistent order is required.
Even when the order is not important, it will generally require
fewer allocations to create a UPtrList of entries instead of a
HashTable or even a wordList.
- additional verbosity option for conversions
- ignore old `-finite-area` option and always convert available
finiteArea mesh/fields unless `-no-finite-area` is specified (#2374)
ENH: simplify point offset handling for ensight output
- extend writing to include compact face/cell lists
- set() was silently deprecated in favour of reset() FEB-2018
since the original additional check for overwriting an existing
pointer was never used. The reset(...) name is more consistent
with unique_ptr, tmp etc.
Now emit deprecations for set().
- use direct test for autoPtr, tmp instead of valid() method.
More consistent with unique_ptr etc.
STYLE: eliminate redundant ptr() use on cloned quantities
- includes restructuring and simplification of low-level ensight part
handling and refactor of backends to improve code reuse.
foamToEnsight
-------------
* new cellZone support.
This was previously only possible via a separate foamToEnsightParts
utility that was not parallelized.
* support for point fields.
* `-nearCellValue` option (as per foamToVTK)
* data indexing now uses values from the time index.
This is consistent with the ensightWrite function object and
can help with restarts.
* existing ensight directories are removed, unless the -no-overwrite
option is supplied
foamToEnsightParts
------------------
* now redundant and removed.
ensightOutputSurface (new class)
--------------------------------
* a lightweight wrapper for point/face references that is tailored
for the ensightSurfaceWriter. It uses compact face/point information
and is serial only, since this is the format requirements from the
surfaceWriter class.
ensightMesh (revised class)
---------------------------
* now only holds a polyMesh reference, which removes its dependency
on finiteVolume and allows it to be relocated under fileFormats
instead of conversion.
Removed classes: ensightParts, ensighPartFaces, ensightPartCells
- these were used by foamToEnsightParts, but not needed anymore.
- changed ensightOutput from a class solely comprising static methods to
a namespace and added in sub-namespaces Detail and Serial.
This makes it easier to "mix-in" functions at different levels.
Refactored and combined some serial/parallel code where possible.
The general ensightOutput namespace has now shifted to be in the
fileFormats lib, while leaving volField outputs in the conversion lib
and cloud outputs in the lagrangian-intermediate lib.
The ensightCloud namespace is now simply folded into the new
ensightOutput namespace.
These changes clean up some code, reduce fragmentation and
duplication and removes the previous libconversion dependency for
sampling.
- use int for ensight nTypes constexpr
Note: issue #1176 is unaffected except for the change in file name:
ensightOutputTemplates.C -> ensightOutputVolFieldTemplates.C
