- 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.
- 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
- 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)
- for some special cases we wish to mark command-line arguments as
being optional, in order to do our own treatment. For example,
when an arbitrary number of arguments should be allowed.
Now tag this situation with argList::noMandatoryArgs().
The argList::argsMandatory() query can then be used in any further
logic, including the standard default argument checking.
- with the new default check, can consolidate the special-purpose
"setRootCaseNonMandatoryArgs.H"
into the regular
"setRootCase.H"
- revert to a simple "setRootCase.H" and move all the listing related
bits to a "setRootCaseLists.H" file. This leaves the information
available for solvers, or whoever else wishes, without being
introduced everywhere.
- add include guards and scoping to the listing files and rename to
something less generic.
listOptions.H -> setRootCaseListOptions.H
listOutput.H -> setRootCaseListOutput.H
- now placed under postProcessing/checkMesh and postProcessing/checkAMI,
respectively.
Output files are now also tagged with the id of the patch, in case
there are multiple AMI patches in use.
- can be used, for example, to visualize all wall cells - for quality
or other purposes - without requiring an intermediate faceSet for
the selection. Request arising from pending merge !213.
- helps reduce clutter in the topoSetDict files.
Caveats when using this.
The older specification styles using "name" will conflict with the
set name. Eg,
{
name f0
type faceSet;
action add;
source patchToFace;
sourceInfo
{
name inlet;
}
}
would flattened to the following
{
name f0
type faceSet;
action add;
source patchToFace;
name inlet;
}
which overwrites the "name" used for the faceSet.
The solution is to use the updated syntax:
{
name f0
type faceSet;
action add;
source patchToFace;
patch inlet;
}
- now applicable to labelLists.
Note:
in some situations it will be more efficient to use
Foam::identity() directly. Eg,
globalIndex globalCells(mesh.nCells());
...
labelList cellIds
(
identity(globalCells.localSize(), globalCells.localStart())
);
- old 'DELETE' enum was easily confused with 'REMOVE', which removes
the set, not the elements from the set.
- provide corresponding subtractSet() method
STYLE: HashSet set/unset instead of insert/erase methods in topoSetSource
- simplifies switching to/from bitSet storage
- as part of the cleanup of dictionary access methods (c6520033c9)
made the dictionary class single inheritance from IDLList<entry>.
This eliminates any ambiguities for iterators and allows
for simple use of range-for looping.
Eg,
for (const entry& e : topDict))
{
Info<< "entry:" << e.keyword() << " is dict:" << e.isDict() << nl;
}
vs
forAllConstIter(dictionary, topDict, iter))
{
Info<< "entry:" << iter().keyword()
<< " is dict:" << iter().isDict() << nl;
}
- more dictionary-like methods, enforce keyType::LITERAL for all
lookups to avoid any spurious keyword matching.
- new readEntry, readIfPresent methods
- The get() method replaces the now deprecate lookup() method.
- Deprecate lookupOrFailsafe()
Failsafe behaviour is now an optional parameter for lookupOrDefault,
which makes it easier to tailor behaviour at runtime.
- output of the names is now always flatted without line-breaks.
Thus,
os << flatOutput(someEnumNames.names()) << nl;
os << someEnumNames << nl;
both generate the same output.
- Constructor now uses C-string (const char*) directly instead of
Foam::word in its initializer_list.
- Remove special enum + initializer_list constructor form since
it can create unbounded lookup indices.
- Removd old hasEnum, hasName forms that were provided during initial
transition from NamedEnum.
- Added static_assert on Enum contents to restrict to enum or
integral values. Should not likely be using this class to enumerate
other things since it internally uses an 'int' for its values.
Changed volumeType accordingly to enumerate on its type (enum),
not the class itself.
- same as !isPattern(), but can be more readable.
- add wordRe enum state 'UNKNOWN', which has the identical value as
'DETECT' but used for a return value.
- instead of dict.lookup(name) >> val;
can use dict.readEntry(name, val);
for checking of input token sizes.
This helps catch certain types of input errors:
{
key1 ; // <- Missing value
key2 1234 // <- Missing ';' terminator
key3 val;
}
STYLE: readIfPresent() instead of 'if found ...' in a few more places.
- 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;
}
Previously had 3 possibilities for handling exposed internal faces
1. use default "oldInternalFaces"
2. specify -patch, to use the specified (existing) patch
3. specify -patches, to use the geometrically closest patches
Now relaxed the restriction on -patch to allow specification of a new
(not yet existing) patch name. This improves flexibility, but won't
catch typing mistakes.
Harmonize behaviour of -patches and -patch. When -patches is used to
specify a single, non-regex patch name, it now behaves identically to
-patch. Since the getList handling for options already allows special
treatment for single parameter lists, the following will work
identically:
subsetMesh -patch patch0
subsetMesh -patches patch0
subsetMesh -patches '( patch0 )'
In the future it might be reasonable to fully combine the behaviour of
'-patch' and '-patches' and treat them as aliases for each other.
ENH: support subsetMesh on a cellZone.
- when the '-zone' option is specified, the command argument is treated
as the name (or names) of cellZones to be selected instead of as the
name of the cellSet.
The command argument can be a single word, regex, or list of
word/regex.
Eg,
subsetMesh -zone -patch mypatch mixer
subsetMesh -zone -patch mypatch '(mixer "moving.*" )'
STYLE: simplify set handling and other code cleanup in subsetMesh
