- additional dummy template parameter to assist with supporting
derived classes. Currently just used for string types, but can be
extended.
- provide hash specialization for various integer types.
Removes the need for any forwarding.
- change default hasher for HashSet/HashTable from 'string::hash'
to `Hash<Key>`. This avoids questionable hashing calls and/or
avoids compiler resolution problems.
For example,
HashSet<label>::hasher and labelHashSet::hasher now both properly
map to Hash<label> whereas previously HashSet<label> would have
persistently mapped to string::hash, which was incorrect.
- standardize internal hashing functors.
Functor name is 'hasher', as per STL set/map and the OpenFOAM
HashSet/HashTable definitions.
Older code had a local templated name, which added unnecessary
clutter and the template parameter was always defaulted.
For example,
Old: `FixedList<label, 3>::Hash<>()`
New: `FixedList<label, 3>::hasher()`
Unchanged: `labelHashSet::hasher()`
Existing `Hash<>` functor namings are still supported,
but deprecated.
- define hasher and Hash specialization for bitSet and PackedList
- add symmetric hasher for 'face'.
Starts with lowest vertex value and walks in the direction
of the next lowest value. This ensures that the hash code is
independent of face orientation and face rotation.
NB:
- some of keys for multiphase handling (eg, phasePairKey)
still use yet another function naming: `hash` and `symmHash`.
This will be targeted for alignment in the future.
- wrap command-line retrieval of fileName with an implicit validate.
Instead of this:
fileName input(args[1]);
fileName other(args["someopt"]);
Now use this:
auto input = args.get<fileName>(1);
auto other = args.get<fileName>("someopt");
which adds a fileName::validate on the inputs
Because of how it is implemented, it will automatically also apply
to argList getOrDefault<fileName>, readIfPresent<fileName> etc.
- adjust fileName::validate and clean to handle backslash conversion.
This makes it easier to ensure that path names arising from MS-Windows
are consistently handled internally.
- dictionarySearch: now check for initial '/' directly instead of
relying on fileName isAbsolute(), which now does more things
BREAKING: remove fileName::clean() const method
- relying on const/non-const to control the behaviour (inplace change
or return a copy) is too fragile and the const version was
almost never used.
Replace:
fileName sanitized = constPath.clean();
With:
fileName sanitized(constPath);
sanitized.clean());
STYLE: test empty() instead of comparing with fileName::null
- eliminates a potentially invalid code branch.
Since it essentially had the same internals as std::swap anyhow,
make that more evident.
ENH: use std::swap for basic types
- makes it clearer that they do not rely on any special semantics
ENH: limit output to 25 cell types per line for readability
- makes it easier to trace potential format errors etc
STYLE: downgrade warning about polyhedrals to a simple info message
- can assume that polyhedral support is widespread enough to not
warrant a warning.
- 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.
- adjustments to internal handling to improve run-time addition of
other formats (eg, with additional user library)
For example, to write a binary STL with a '.stl' extension:
$ surfaceMeshConvert input.obj -write-format stlb output.stl
Or in a sampler,
to specify the input type without ambiguity:
surf
{
type meshedSurface;
surface sampling.inp;
fileType starcd;
scale 0.001;
...
}
STYLE: regularize naming for input/output scaling
* -read-scale (compat: -scaleIn)
* -write-scale (compat: -scaleOut)
CONFIG: change edge/surface selection name for STARCD format
- now select as "starcd" instead of "inp" to avoid naming ambiguity
with abaqus
- 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()
- fixed some more places with an explicit AUTO_WRITE.
BUG: revert handling of the readOption. It should not be NO_READ.
In cases where the user a IOobject without specifying read/write, it
defaults to NO_READ anyhow. However, the move constructor can also
be called with empty lists and a read option. This has the same
signature, but obviously will not work with NO_READ.
- makes the intent clearer and avoids the need for additional
constructor casting. Eg,
labelList(10, Zero) vs. labelList(10, 0)
scalarField(10, Zero) vs. scalarField(10, scalar(0))
vectorField(10, Zero) vs. vectorField(10, vector::zero)
- nBoundaryFaces() is often used and is identical to
(nFaces() - nInternalFaces()).
- forward the mesh nInternalFaces() and nBoundaryFaces() to
polyBoundaryMesh as nFaces() and start() respectively,
for use when operating on a polyBoundaryMesh.
STYLE:
- use identity() function with starting offset when creating boundary maps.
labelList map
(
identity(mesh.nBoundaryFaces(), mesh.nInternalFaces())
);
vs.
labelList map(mesh.nBoundaryFaces());
forAll(map, i)
{
map[i] = mesh.nInternalFaces() + i;
}
- there were previously no hashing mechanisms for lists so they
would fall back to the definition for primitives and hash the
memory location of the allocated List object.
- provide a UList::Hash<> sub-class for inheritance, and also a global
specialization for UList<T>, List<T> such that the hash value for
List<List<T>> cascades properly.
- provide similar function in triFace to ensure that it remains
similar in behaviour to face.
- added SymmHash to Pair, for use when order is unimportant.
STYLE: use string::hash() more consistently
- no particular reason to use Hash<word>() which forwards to
string::hash() anyhow
- With argList::noFunctionObjects() we use the logic added in
4b93333292 (issue #352)
By removing the '-noFunctionObjects' option, we automatically
suppress the creation of function-objects via Time (with argList
as a parameter).
There is generally no need in these cases for an additional
runTime.functionObjects().off() statement
Use the argList::noFunctionObjects() for more direct configuration
and reduce unnecessary clutter in the -help information.
In previous versions, the -noFunctionObjects would have been redundant
anyhow, so we can also just ignore it now instead.
General:
* -roots, -hostRoots, -fileHandler
Specific:
* -to <coordinateSystem> -from <coordinateSystem>
- Display -help-compat when compatibility or ignored options are available
STYLE: capitalization of options text
- aids with detection of excess tokens (issue #762)
- deprecated dictionary::operator[] in favour of the lookup() method
which offers more flexibilty and clarity of purpose.
Additionally, the read<> and get<> forms should generally be used
instead anyhow.
