- just check WM_PROJECT_DIR instead.
- provide a fallback value when FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN might actually be needed.
Only strictly need FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN for scotch/metis decomposition, and
when these are actually supplied by ThirdParty.
All other ThirdParty dependencies are referenced by BOOST_ARCH_PATH etc.
Can therefore drop the FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN dependency for VTK-related
things, which do not use scotch/metis anyhow.
- this implies that jobControl is a user-resource for OpenFOAM.
It was previously located under $WM_PROJECT_INST_DIR/jobControl,
but few users will have write access there.
- an unset FOAM_JOB_DIR variable is treated as "~/.OpenFOAM/jobControl",
which can partially reduce environment clutter.
- provide argList::noJobInfo() to conveniently suppress job-info on an
individual basis for short-running utilities (eg, foamListTimes) to
avoid unneeded clutter.
- the purpose is more explicit, without needing to check documentation
about what the bool parameter means.
STYLE: improve formatting of fileName documentation
- The code create a box with a (0,0,0) point.
The new definition is more logical and makes it very easy to grow
the bounding box to include new points. It also simplifies much of
the logic in the constructors.
- Use ROOTVGREAT instead of VGREAT for sizing greatBox and invertedBox.
Avoids some overflow issues reported by Mattijs (thus GREAT has been
used in treeBoundBox), but might still need further revision.
- Constructor for bounding box of a single point.
- add(boundBox), add(point) ...
-> Extend box to enclose the second box or point(s).
Eg,
bb.add(pt);
vs.
bb.min() = Foam::min(bb.min(), pt);
bb.max() = Foam::max(bb.max(), pt);
Also works with other bounding boxes.
Eg,
bb.add(bb2);
// OR
bb += bb2;
vs.
bb.min() = Foam::min(bb.min(), bb2.min());
bb.max() = Foam::max(bb.max(), bb2.max());
'+=' operator allows the reduction to be used in parallel
gather/scatter operations.
A global '+' operator is not currently needed.
Note: may be useful in the future to have a 'clear()' method
that resets to a zero-sized (inverted) box.
STYLE: make many bounding box constructors explicit
reduce()
- parallel reduction of min/max values.
Reduces coding for the callers.
Eg,
bb.reduce();
instead of the previous method:
reduce(bb.min(), minOp<point>());
reduce(bb.max(), maxOp<point>());
STYLE:
- use initializer list for creating static content
- use point::min/point::max when defining standard boxes
- as originally intended years ago, but never actually done.
- use 'foamPvCore' instead of 'vtkPVReaders' to avoid potential name
collisions with any 'vtk*' files and since we may reuse these
functions in other foam-paraview modules (not just readers).
STYLE: use same font size/colour for patch-names as for point-numbers
BUG: repair issue with single time-step
- paraview time-selector returns '0' as the requested time if there is
only one time step. However, if we have skipped the 0/ directory,
this single time step is likely a non-zero value.
- use "-pvMAJ.MIN" suffix for similarity with the paraview convention
- use sentinel file to ensure clean change of intermediate targets
- ensure all library files are being properly removed
- remove old (ParaView-3) files
- Works in 4.4.0, 5.0.1, 5.2.0 etc
STYLE:
- slots now use SM properties directly without a second lookup.
This reduces exposure of the QT elements and simplifies the coding.
- avoid focus borders on the Qt elements
- place the "use Polyhedron" checkbox into a column
- move "Cache Mesh" down in the GUI (an advanced feature and thus
should be less prominent)
- obtain button labels/tooltip directly from the XML content
- although this is not the final desired form, since it uses
individual pqPropertyWidget customizations (ie, ugly layout, too
many bits of code), but is an interesting intermediate solution
that may be useful in other contexts.
- Could be related to interrupted builds.
So if there are any parts of the build that rely on an explicit
'wmakeLnInclude', make sure that the contents are properly updated.

ENH: improved feedback from top-level Allwmake
- Report which section (libraries, applications) is being built.
- Provide final summary of date, version, etc, which can be helpful
for later diagnosis or record keeping.
- The -log=XXX option for Allwmake now accepts a directory name
and automatically appends an appropriate log name.
Eg,
./Allwmake -log=logs/ ->> logs/log.linux64GccDPInt32Opt
The default name is built from the value of WM_OPTIONS.
--
BUG: shell not exiting properly in combination with -log option
- the use of 'tee' causes the shell to hang around.
Added an explicit exit to catch this.
--
- Detecting the '-k' (-non-stop) option at the top-level Allwmake, which
may improve robustness.
- Explicit continue-on-error for foamyMesh (as optional component)
- unify format of script messages for better readability
COMP: reduce warnings when building Pstream (old-style casts in openmpi)
- polyMesh constructor from cell shapes invoked 'removeFiles'.
This may or may not be what the caller wants or expects.
With the ParaView blockMesh viewer, this behaviour causes deletion of
all mesh data (points, faces, etc) when the viewer is refreshed.
Triggered even when just building the blockMesh topology.
- only a few places that construct a polyMesh from cell shapes
(mostly mesh conversion utilities).
Ensure that the file removal (if any) occurs in the application
and *not* as a side-effect of calling the polyMesh constructor.
--
blockMesh (application)
- The placement of the removeFiles seems to also remove freshly
generated sets (Bug or feature to remove sets?)
