- when reading, detect all clouds on all processors and uses this when
reading fields. Similarly, when writing it uses writeOnProc to skip
clouds that are empty on any particular processor.

- provide a globalIndex::calcOffsets() taking an indirect list, which
enables convenient offsets calculation from a variety of inputs.
- new CompactListList unpack variant: copy_unpack()
The copy_unpack() works somewhat like std::copy() in that it writes
the generated sublists to iterator positions, which makes this
type of code possible:
CompactListList<label> compact = ...;
DynamicList<face> extracted;
compact.copy_unpack<face>
(
std::back_inserter(extracted),
labelRange(4, 10)
);
-and-
const label nOldFaces = allFaces.size();
allFaces.resize(allFaces + nNewFaces);
auto iter = allFaces.begin(nOldFaces);
iter = compact.copy_unpack<face>(iter, /* selection 1 */);
...
iter = compact.copy_unpack<face>(iter, /* selection 2 */);
ENH: globalIndex resize()
- can be used to shrink or grow the offsets table.
Any extension of the offsets table corresponds to 'slots'
with 0 local size.
- allows construction of string tokens holding character content.
For example, data that has been serialized and buffered and that
now needs to be written or sent to another process.
- avoids clutter of argList::envGlobalPath() ...
ENH: allow temporary overwriting of output writeFormat
- allows switching for particular output routines
COMP: explicitly use TimePaths methods with Time
- this simplifies any overloading done at a later stage
- this makes it easier to split creation into a two-stage process
as required
- extend handling for polyBoundaryMeshEntries, faBoundaryMeshEntries
with more functionality. Ensure that these are never registered.
ENH: addition writeEntry methods for polyBoundaryMesh
- simplifies streaming and collating into other files
ENH: polyMesh rereading - update owner/neighbour header information
- this avoids accidentally reading the "cells" file if the mesh has
been created with NO_READ and then updated
STYLE: less vertical space when outputting empty PtrList
- combined most of the unweighted and weighted decomposition routines
such that an empty weight field is treated as uniform weighting.
This allows default parameters and cuts down on the number of
decompose methods.
- for topology-driven decomposition, it is now possible to pass in the
owner/neighbour connectivity as a CompactListList directly instead
of first creating a labelListList (which was internally repacked into
a CompactListList in many cases).
However, multiLevelDecomp still uses unpacking (to avoid a larger
reworking of code).
- support direct creation of some methods (eg, random, scotch etc)
without a dictionary
- fix incorrect neighbour face weighting (fixes#3019)
ENH: relocate calcCellCells from decompositionMethod to globalMeshData
- makes it more universally available
- CompactListList::size() corresponds to the number of sub-lists
whereas globalIndex::size() corresponds to the totalSize().
This difference can lead to potential coding errors when switching
between pure addressing (eg globalIndex) and addressing with content
(eg, CompactListList).
Within the source tree, there are no longer any occurances of
globalIndex::size() but it is nonetheless unsafe to change its
meaning now. Instead provide a commonly named length() method that
corresponds to the natural length: ie, the number of offsets minus 1
(with guards).
- add CompactListList::writeMatrix for writing the compact contents
in an unpacked form (eg, for debugging) without actually needing to
unpack into storage.
- provide globalIndex::whichProcID() two-parameter version
with myProcNo as the first argument.
Symmetric with isLocal etc, useful when using a communicator
that is not worldComm.
- usually only need big/little defines (which are now in the Fwd)
and rarely need byte-swapping.
Provide endian.H compatibility include, but foamEndianFwd.H or
foamEndian.H to avoid potential name clashes.
- The pTraits_cmptType returns the data type of 'cmptType' (for
arithmetic and VectorSpace types) or is simply a pass-through.
This can be combined with the pTraits_nComponents for casting.
For example,
function
(
reinterpret_cast<pTraits_cmptType<Type>::type*>(buf.data()),
(buf.size()/pTraits_nComponents<Type>::value)
);
ENH: extend Foam::identityOp so support array indexing (pass-through)
- single() method : simply tests if the globalIndex has nProcs == 1,
which is typically from a gatherNone invocation.
For example,
globalIndex gi;
if (...) gi.reset(localSize);
else gi.reset(globalIndex::gatherNone{}, localSize);
// later...
const label begin = (gi.single() ? 0 : gi.localStart());
const label count = (gi.single() ? gi.totalSize() : gi.localSize());
- add front() and back() methods to return the begin/end ranges,
and begin_value(), end_value() - as per labelRange.
- make more methods noexcept
- calcOffset(), calcRange() helper functions to determine
the processor-local of a numbering range without the overhead of
creating a list of offsets.
For example,
label myOffset = globalIndex::calcOffset(mesh.nCells());
labelRange mySlice = globalIndex::calcRange(mesh.nCells());
- add globalIndex localEnd() as per CompactListList method
STYLE: align looping constructs in CompactListList with List
- make more methods noexcept
- becoming more frequently used and there is no ambiguity in calling
parameters either - identity(label) vs identity(labelUList&).
Provide both int32 and int64 versions.
- now mark methods with strict deprecation, to make it easier to find
their use but without adding extra compilation noise for others
ENH: minor update for Enum methods and iterator
- add warnOnly (failsafe) option for readEntry and getOrDefault
- add good() method to Enum iterator (simliar to HashTable)
- replace unused/fragile Enum find() methods with iterator return
that can be used more generally
- explicit use of UPstream::worldComm in globalIndex methods
for more clarity
- adjust method declaration ordering:
de-emphasize the processor-local convenience methods
- consistent use of leading tag dispatch,
remove unused enum-based dispatch tag
- add begin()/cbegin() with offset (as per List containers)
BUG: missing use of communicator in globalIndex gatherNonLocal
- does not affect any existing code (which all use worldComm anyhow)
- support std::string_view (c++17) or span view (older c++) of stream
buffer contents. This simplifies formatting + reparsing.
Example,
OCharStream os;
os << ...;
ISpanStream is(os.view());
is >> ...;
- additional release() method for ICharStream, OCharStream
that returns the contents as a DynamicList<char> and resets the stream.
- provide a str() method for API compatibility with older
std::ostringstream etc.
- change write(const string&) to write(const std::string&).
This allows output of std::string without an intermediate copy.
- additional writeQuoted method to handle range of char data:
writeQuoted(const char* str, std::streamsize len, bool)
This helps with supporting string_view and span<char>
- add operator<< for stdFoam::span<char> and std::string_view (c++17)
- avoid duplicate code in OBJstream
STYLE: add override keyword for IO stream methods
- changes the addressed list size without affecting list allocation.
Can be useful for the following type of coding pattern:
- pre-allocate a List with some max content length
- populate with some content (likely not the entire pre-allocated size)
- truncate the list to the length of valid content
- process the List
- discard the List
Since the List is being discarded, using resize_unsafe() instead of
resize() avoids an additional allocation with the new size and
copying/moving of the elements.
This programming pattern can also be used when the List is being
returned from a subroutine, and carrying about a bit of unused memory
is less important than avoiding reallocation + copy/move.
If used improperly, it can obviously result in addressing into
unmanaged memory regions (ie, 'unsafe').
- shrink_to_fit()
corresponds to std::vector naming.
For DynamicList it is a *binding* request.
- shrink_unsafe()
simply adjusts the capacity() to match the
current size() without forcing a re-allocation.
Useful when collapsing to a non-dynamic list to avoid reallocation
and copying contents. The memory cleanup will still occur properly
at a later stage.
- DynamicList::swap(List&)
simple recovery of content into a non-dynamic List that also
ensures that the capacity is correctly updated.
STYLE: promote List::capacity() to public visibility (like std::vector)
STYLE: remove unused expandStorage() method
- simply a wrapper for resize(capacity())
- support UList shallowCopy with pointer/size
(eg, for slicing into or from span)
ENH: add SubList::reset() functionality
- allows modification of a SubList after construction.
Previously a SubList had an immutable location after construction
and there was no way to shift or change its location.
BUG: missed special handling for DynamicList<char>::readList (fixes#2974)
- equivalent to List<char>::readList, in which the stream is
temporarily toggled from ASCII to BINARY when reading in a List of
char data.
This specialization was missed when DynamicList<T>::readList() was
fully implemented.
- defines values for EMPTY, UNIFORM, NONUNIFORM and MIXED
that allow bitwise OR reduction and provide an algorithm
for calculating uniformity
ENH: consolidate more efficient uniformity checks in PackedList
ENH: improve linebreak handling when outputting small matrices
- use ignore instead of seekg/tellg to swallow input (robuster)
- check for bad gcount() values
- wrap Foam::fileSize() compressed/uncompressed handling into IFstream.
- improve handling of compressed files in masterUncollatedFileOperation.
Previously read into a string via stream iterators.
Now read chunk-wise into a List of char for fewer reallocations.
- soft renames (ie, old names still available via typedefs) for more
reasonable names and more coverage with std stream variants.
The old names could be a bit cryptic.
For example, uiliststream (== an unallocated/external list storage),
which is written as std::ispanstream for C++23.
Could similarly argue that IListStream is better named as
ICharStream, since it is an input stream of characters and the
internal storage mechanism (List or something else) is mostly
irrelevant.
Extending the coverage to include all std stream variants, and
simply rewrap them for OpenFOAM IOstream types. This simplifies the
inheritance patterns and allows reuse of icharstream/ocharstream as
a drop-in replace for istringstream/ostringstream in other wrappers.
Classes:
* icharstream / ICharStream [old: none / IListStream]
* ocharstream / OCharStream [old: none / OListStream]
* ispanstream / ISpanStream [old: uiliststream / UIListStream]
* ospanstream / OSpanStream [old: none / UOListStream]
Possible new uses : read file contents into a buffer, broadcast
buffer contents to other ranks and then transfer into an icharstream
to be read from. This avoid the multiple intermediate copies that
would be associated when using an istringstream.
- Use size doubling instead of block-wise incremental for ocharstream
(OCharStream). This corresponds to the sizing behaviour as per
std::stringstream (according to gcc-11 includes)
STYLE: drop Foam_IOstream_extras constructors for memory streams
- transitional/legacy constructors but not used in any code
- totalSize() returns retrieve the linear (total) size
(naming as per globalIndex)
- operator[] retrieves the referenced value (linear indexing)
- labels() returns a flattened labelList (as per labelRange itself)
- broadcasts list contiguous content as a two-step process:
1. broadcast the size, and resize for receiver list
2. broadcast contiguous contents (if non-empty)
This avoids serialization/de-serialization memory overhead but at
the expense of an additional broadcast call.
The trade-off of the extra broadcast of the size will be less
important than avoiding a memory peak for large contiguous mesh data.
REVERT: unstable MPI_Mprobe/MPI_Mrecv on intelmpi + PMI-2 (#2796)
- partial revert of commit c6f528588b, for NBX implementation.
Not yet flagged as causing errors here, but eliminated for
consistency.
- simplifies internal handling (like a fileName) and allows the
dictionary name to be used with unambiguous addressing.
The previous dot (.) separator is ambiguous (ie, as dictionary
separator or as part of a keyword).
ENH: foamDictionary report -add/-set to stderr
- selected with '+strict' in WM_COMPILE_CONTROL or 'wmake -strict', it
enables the FOAM_DEPRECATED_STRICT() macro, which can be used to
mark methods that are implicitly deprecated, but are not yet marked
as full deprecated (eg, API modification is too recent, generates
too many warnings). Can be considered a developer option.
- eliminate ClassName in favour of simple debug
- include Apple-specific FPE handling after local definition
to allow for more redefinitions
COMP: remove stray <csignal> includes
- naming like std::map::try_emplace(), it behaves like emplace_set()
if there is no element at the given location otherwise a no-op
ENH: reuse existing HashPtrTable 'slot' when setting pointers
- avoids extra HashTable operations
- the construction of compound tokens is now split into two stages:
- default construct
- read contents
This permits a larger variety of handling.
- the new token::readCompoundToken(..) method allows for simpler
more failsafe invocations.
- forward resize(), read() methods for compound tokens to support
separate read and population.
Top-level refCompoundToken() method for modify access.
ENH: split off a private readCompoundToken() method within ISstream
- this allows overloading and alternative tokenisation handling for
derived classes
- simplifies iteration of ITstream using nRemainingTokens() and skip()
methods or directly as a list of tokens.
The currentToken() method returns const or non-const access to
the token at the current tokenIndex.
The peekToken(label) method provides failsafe read access to tokens
at given locations.
ENH: add primitiveEntry construct with moving a single token
- drop unnecessary Foam::Swap specializations when MoveConstructible
and MoveAssignable already apply. The explicit redirect to swap
member functions was needed before proper move semantics where
added.
Removed specializations: autoPtr, refPtr, tmp, UList.
Retained specialization: DynamicList, FixedList.
Special handling for DynamicList is only to accommodate dissimilar
sizing template parameters (which probably doesn't occur in
practice).
Special handling for FixedList to apply element-wise swapping.
- use std::swap for primitives. No need to mask with Foam::Swap wrapper
- fully implement DynamicList::readList() instead of simply
redirecting to List::readList(). This also benefits DynamicField.
Leverage DynamicList reading to simplify and improve CircularBuffer
reading.
- bracket lists are now read chunk-wise instead of using a
singly-linked list. For integral and vector-space types
(eg, scalar, vector, etc) this avoids intermediate allocations
for each element.
ENH: add CircularBuffer emplace_front/emplace_back
STYLE: isolate to-be-deprecated construct/assign forms
- still have construct/assign FixedList from a C-array.
This is not really needed, can use std::initializer_list
- still have construct/assign List from SLList.
Prefer to avoid these in the future.
DEFEATURE: remove construct/assign FixedList from SLList
- never used
DEFEATURE: remove move construct/assign List from SLList
- now unused. Retain copy construct/assign from SLList for transition
purposes.
- is_vectorspace :
test existence and non-zero value of the Type 'rank' static variable
- pTraits_rank :
value of 'rank' static variable (if it exists), 0 otherwise
- pTraits_nComponents :
value of 'nComponents' static variable (if it exists), 1 otherwise
- pTraits_has_zero :
test for pTraits<T>::zero member, which probably means that it also
has one, min, max members as well
Note that these traits are usable with any classes. For example,
- is_vectorspace<std::string>::value ==> false
- pTraits_nComponents<std::string>::value ==> 1
- pTraits<std::string>::nComponents ==> fails to compile
Thus also allows testing pTraits_rank<...>::value with items
for which pTraits<...>::rank fails to compile.
Eg, cyclicAMIPolyPatch::interpolate called by FaceCellWave with a
wallPoint.
pTraits<wallPoint>::rank ==> fails to compile
is_vectorspace<wallPoint>::value ==> false
GIT: relocate ListLoopM.H to src/OpenFOAM/fields/Fields (future isolation)
- 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.
- prefer csorted() method for const access since it ensures that the
return values are also const pointers (for example) even if
the object itself can be accessed as a non-const.
- the csorted() method already existed for HashTable and
objectRegistry, but now added to IOobjectList for method name
consistency (even although the IOobjectList only has a const-access
version)
ENH: objectRegistry with templated strict lookup
- for lookupClass and csorted/sorted. Allows isType restriction as a
compile-time specification.
* resize_null() methods for PtrList variants
- for cases where an existing PtrList needs a specific size and
but not retain any existing entries.
Eg,
ptrs.resize_null(100);
vs. ptrs.free(); ptr.resize(100);
or ptr.resize(100); ptrs.free();
* remove stored pointer before emplacing PtrList elements
- may reduce memory peaks
* STYLE: static_cast of (nullptr) instead of reinterpret_cast of (0)
* COMP: implement emplace_set() for PtrDynList
- previously missing, which meant it would have leaked through to the
underlying PtrList definition
* emplace methods for autoPtr, refPtr, tmp
- applies reset() with forwarding arguments.
For example,
tmp<GeoField> tfld = ...;
later...
tfld.emplace(io, mesh);
vs.
tfld.reset(new GeoField(io, mesh));
or
tfld.reset(tmp<GeoField>::New(io, mesh));
The emplace() obviously has reduced typing, but also allows the
existing stored pointer to be deleted *before* creating its
replacement (reduces memory peaks).
- this simplifies polling receives and allows separation from
the sends
ENH: add UPstream::removeRequests(pos, len)
- cancel/free of outstanding requests and remove segment from the
internal list of outstanding requests
- can be used, for example, to track global states:
// Encode as 0:empty, 1:uniform, 2:nonuniform, 3:mixed
PackedList<2> uniformity(fields.size());
forAll(fields, i)
{
uniformity.set(i, fields[i].whichUniformity());
}
reduce
(
uniformity.data(),
uniformity.size_data(),
bitOrOp<unsigned>()
);
- simplifies code by avoiding code duplication:
* parLagrangianDistributor
* meshToMesh (processorLOD and AABBTree methods)
BUG: inconsistent mapping when using processorLOD boxes (fixes#2932)
- internally the processorLODs createMap() method used a 'localFirst'
layout whereas a 'linear' order is what is actually expected for the
meshToMesh mapping. This will cause of incorrect behaviour
if using processorLOD instead of AABBTree.
A dormant bug since processorLOD is not currently selectable.
- primarily for handling expression results,
but can also be used as a universal value holder.
Has some characteristics suitable for type-less IO:
eg, is_integral(), nComponents()
ENH: add is_pointer() check for expression scanToken
- update TimeState access methods
- use writeTime() instead of old method name outputTime()
- use deltaTValue() instead of deltaT().value()
to avoids pointless construct of intermediate
- files might have been set during token reading so only on
known on master processor.
Broadcast names to all processors (even alhough they are only
checked on master) so that the watched states remain synchronised
- provides a more succinct way of writing
{fa,fv}PatchField<Type>::patchInternalField(*this)
as well as a consistent naming that can be used for patches derived
from valuePointPatchField
ENH: readGradientEntry helper method for fixedGradient conditions
- simplifies coding and logic.
- support different read construct modes for fixedGradient
- individual processor Time databases are purely for internal logistics
and should not be introducing any new library symbols: these will
already have been loaded in the outer loop.
- MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE is usually undesirable for performance reasons,
but in some cases may be necessary if a linked library expects it.
Provide a '-mpi-threads' option to explicitly request it.
ENH: consolidate some looping logic within argList
- primarily relevant for finite-area meshes, in which case they can be
considered to be an additional, detailed diagnositic that is
normally not needed (clutters the file system).
Writing can be enabled with the `-write-edges` option.
- fatten the interface to continue allowing write control with a bool
or with a dedicated file handler. This may slim down in the future.

- accept plain lists (space or comma separated) as well as the
traditional OpenFOAM lists. This simplifies argument handling
with job scripts.
For example,
simpleFoam -ioRanks 0,4,8 ...
vs
simpleFoam -ioRanks '(0 4 8)' ...
It is also possible to select the IO ranks on a per-host basis:
simpleFoam -ioRanks host ...
- expose rank/subrank handling as static fileOperation methods
- added UPstream::allGatherValues() with a direct call to MPI_Allgather.
This enables possible benefit from a variety of internal algorithms
and simplifies the caller
Old:
labelList nPerProc
(
UPstream::listGatherValues<label>(patch_.size(), myComm)
);
Pstream::broadcast(nPerProc, myComm);
New:
const labelList nPerProc
(
UPstream::allGatherValues<label>(patch_.size(), myComm)
);
- Pstream::allGatherList uses MPI_Allgather for contiguous values
instead of the hand-rolled tree walking involved with
gatherList/scatterList.
-
- simplified the calling parameters for mpiGather/mpiScatter.
Since send/recv data types are identical, the send/recv count
is also always identical. Eliminates the possibility of any
discrepancies.
Since this is a low-level call, it does not affect much code.
Currently just Foam::profilingPstream and a UPstream internal.
BUG: call to MPI_Allgather had hard-coded MPI_BYTE (not the data type)
- a latent bug since it is currently only passed char data anyhow
- this refinement of commit 81807646ca makes these methods
consistent with other objects/containers.
The 'unsigned char' access is still available via cdata()
- use typeHeaderOk<regIOobject>(false) for some generic file existence
checks. Often had something like labelIOField as a placeholder, but
that may be construed to have a particular something.
- coupled patches are treated distinctly and independently of
internalFacesOnly, it makes little sense to report them with a
warning about turning off boundary faces (which would not work
anyhow).
STYLE: update code style for createBaffles
- permitting a cast to a non-const pointer adds uncertainty of
ownership.
- adjust PtrDynList transfer. Remove the unused 'PtrDynList::remove()'
method, which is better handled with pop().
- this complements the whichPatch(meshFacei) method [binary search]
and the list of patchID() by adding internal range checks.
eg,
Before
~~~~~~
if (facei >= mesh.nInternalFaces() && facei < mesh.nFaces())
{
patchi = pbm.patchID()[facei - mesh.nInternalFaces()];
...
}
After
~~~~~
patchi = pbm.patchID(facei);
if (patchi >= 0)
{
...
}
ENH: support transfer from a wrapped MPI request to global list
- allows coding with a list UPstream::Request and subsequently either
retain that list or transfer into the global list.
- construct from components, or use word::null to ensure
consistent avoid naming between IOobject vs dimensioned type.
- support construct with parameter ordering as per DimensionedField
ENH: instantiate a uniformDimensionedLabelField
- eg, for registering standalone integer counters
- simplifies communication structuring with intra-host communication.
Can be used for IO only, or for specialised communication.
Demand-driven construction. Gathers the SHA1 of host names when
determining the connectivity. Internally uses an MPI_Gather of the
digests and a MPI_Bcast of the unique host indices.
NOTE:
does not use MPI_Comm_splt or MPI_Comm_splt_type since these
return MPI_COMM_NULL on non-participating process which does not
easily fit into the OpenFOAM framework.
Additionally, if using the caching version of
UPstream::commInterHost() and UPstream::commIntraHost()
the topology is determined simultaneously
(ie, equivalent or potentially lower communication).
- make sizing of commsStruct List demand-driven as well
for more robustness, fewer unneeded allocations.
- fix potential latent bug with allBelow/allNotBelow for proc 0
(linear communication).
ENH: remove unused/unusable UPstream::communicator optional parameter
- had constructor option to avoid constructing the MPI backend,
but this is not useful and inconsistent with what the reset or
destructor expect.
STYLE: local use of UPstream::communicator
- automatically frees communicator when it leaves scope
- these are primarily when encountering sparse (eg, inter-host)
communicators. Additional UPstream convenience methods:
is_rank(comm)
=> True if process corresponds to a rank in the communicators.
Can be a master rank or a sub-rank.
is_parallel(comm)
=> True if parallel algorithm or exchange is used on the process.
same as
(parRun() && (nProcs(comm) > 1) && is_rank(comm))
- replace the "one-size-fits-all" approach of tensor field inv()
with individual 'failsafe' inverts.
The inv() field function historically just checked the first entry
to detect 2D cases and adjusted/readjusted *all* tensors accordingly
(to avoid singularity tensors and/or noisy inversions).
This seems to have worked reasonably well with 3D volume meshes, but
breaks down for 2D area meshes, which can be axis-aligned
differently on different sections of the mesh.
- not currently used, but it is possible that communicator allocation
modifies the list of sub-ranks. Ensure that the correct size is used
when (re)initialising the linear/tree structures.
STYLE: adjust MPI test applications
- remove some clutter and unneeded grouping.
Some ideas for host-only communicators
- attributes such as assignable(), coupled() etc
- common patchField types: calculatedType(), zeroGradientType() etc.
This simplifies reference to these types without actually needing a
typed patchField version.
ENH: add some basic patchField types to fieldTypes namespace
- allows more general use of the names
ENH: set extrapolated/calculated from patchInternalField directly
- avoids intermediate tmp
- for cases where a 3D tensor is being used to represent 2D content,
the determinant is zero. Can use inv2D(excludeDirection) to compensate
and invert as if it were only 2D.
ENH: consistent definitions for magSqr of symmTensors, diagSqr() norm
COMP: return scalar not component type for magSqr
- had inconsistent definitions with SymmTensor returning the component
type and Tensor returning scalar. Only evident with complex.
- similar to UPstream::parRun(), the setter returns the previous value.
The accessors are prefixed with 'comm':
Eg, commGlobal(), commWarn(), commWorld(), commSelf().
This distinguishes them from any existing variables (eg, worldComm)
and arguably more similar to MPI_COMM_WORLD etc...
If demand-driven communicators are added in the future, the function
call syntax can help encapsulate that.
Previously:
const label oldWarnComm = UPstream::warnComm;
const label oldWorldComm = UPstream::worldComm;
UPstream::warnComm = myComm;
UPstream::worldComm = myComm;
...
UPstream::warnComm = oldWarnComm;
UPstream::worldComm = oldWorldComm;
Now:
const label oldWarnComm = UPstream::commWarn(myComm);
const label oldWorldComm = UPstream::commWorld(myComm);
...
UPstream::commWarn(oldWarnComm);
UPstream::commWorld(oldWorldComm);
STYLE: check (warnComm >= 0) instead of (warnComm != -1)
- useful when regular contents are to be read via an IOobject and
returned.
Eg, dictionary propsDict(IOdictionary::readContents(dictIO));
vs. dictionary propsDict(static_cast<dictionary&&>(IOdictionary(dictIO)));
Commonly these would have simply been constructed directly as the
IO container:
eg, IOdictionary propsDict(dictIO);
However, that style may not ensure proper move semantics for return
types.
Now,
=====
labelList decomp(labelIOList::readContents(io));
... something
return decomp;
=====
Previously,
=====
labelIOList decomp(io);
// Hope for the best...
return decomp;
// Or be explicit and ensure elision occurs...
return labelList(std::move(static_cast<labelList&>(decomp)));
=====
Note:
labelList list(labelIOList(io));
looks like a good idea, but generally fails to compile
- the iterator/const_iterator now skip any nullptr entries,
which enables the following code to work even if the PtrList
contains nullptr:
for (const auto& intf : interfaces)
{
// Do something
...
}
- this is a change in behaviour compared to OpenFOAM-v2212 and earlier,
but is non-breaking:
* Lists without null entries will traverse exactly as before.
* Lists with null entries will now traverse correctly without
provoking a FatalError.
- allows unambiguous of count() for other classes.
Naming as per std::shared_ptr.
STYLE: qualify use_count() and unique() methods with the refCount base
- clearer/consistent meaning
- the null output adapter was previously used for the HashTables API
when HashSet actually stored key/value. Now that the node only
contains the key, having suppressed output is redundant, as is the
zero::null class (reduces clutter)
STYLE: replace one::minus dispatch in extendedEdgeMesh
GIT: remove Foam::nil typedef (deprecated since May-2017)
