- for example,
string buffer = ...;
SubStrings<string> split;
{
auto colon = buffer.find(':');
if (colon != std::string::npos)
{
split = stringOps::splitSpace(buffer, colon+1);
}
}
Not really possible with a substr() since that would create a new
temporary which then disappears. Similarly awkward to split and
then scan for the ':' to decide how many to discard.
ENH: add pop_front() and pop_back() methods to SubStrings
- the content is trivial enough (a pair of iterators) and the total
number of elements is usually reasonable short so that removal of
elements is inexpensive
For example,
string buffer = ...;
auto split = stringOps::splitSpace(buffer);
if (!split.empty() && split[0].str() == "face")
{
split.pop_front();
}
- 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.
- takes a search string and a replacement character.
The replacement character can also be a nul char ('\0'), which
simply removes the characters.
Possible uses:
* Replace reserved characters
str.replaceAny("<>:", '_');
* Remove shell meta-characters or reserved filesystem characters
str.replaceAny("*?<>{}[]:", '\0');
- 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()
- similar to the foamEtcFile script -mode=... option, the specific
search location (user/group/other) can now also specified for
string expansions and as a numerical value for etcFile()
For example, if searching for group or other (project) controlDict,
but not wishing to see the user controlDict:
1. foamEtcFile -mode=go controlDict
2. fileName dictFile("<etc:go>/controlDict");
dictFile.expand();
3. etcFile(controlDict, false, 0077);
The default behaviour for searching all contexts is unchanged.
1. foamEtcFile controlDict
2. fileName dictFile("<etc>/controlDict");
dictFile.expand();
3. etcFile(controlDict);
- In addition to the traditional Flex-based parser, added a Ragel-based
parser and a handwritten one.
Some representative timings for reading 5874387 points (1958129 tris):
Flex Ragel Manual
5.2s 4.8s 6.7s total reading time
3.8s 3.4s 5.3s without point merging
- the expansions were previously required as slash to follow, but
now either are possible.
"<case>", "<case>/" both yield the same as "$FOAM_CASE" and
will not have a trailing slash in the result. The expansion of
"$FOAM_CASE/" will however have a trailing slash.
- adjust additional files using these expansions
Support the following expansions when they occur at the start of a
string:
Short-form Equivalent
========= ===========
<etc>/ ~OpenFOAM/ (as per foamEtcFile)
<case>/ $FOAM_CASE/
<constant>/ $FOAM_CASE/constant/
<system>/ $FOAM_CASE/system/
These can be used in fileName expansions to improve clarity and reduce
some typing
"<constant>/reactions" vs "$FOAM_CASE/constant/reactions"
- split now optionally retains empty substrings.
Added split on fixed field width.
- Foam::name() now formats directly into string buffer, which a
removes one layer of copying and also avoids using a non-constexpr
in the temporary.
STYLE: explicit type narrowing on zero-padded output for ensight
- consolidate word::validated() into word::validate() and also allow
as short form for string::validate<word>(). Also less confusing than
having similarly named methods that essentially do the same thing.
- more consistent const access when iterating over strings
- add valid(char) for keyType and wordRe
- Constructs a validated word, in which all invalid characters have
been stripped out and any leading digit is '_'-prefixed.
Words with leading digits cause parse issues when read back later.
- Replaces previous functionally identical code from src/conversion
--
COMP: test against nullObject instead of checking address for null pointer.
- As the names describe, check if the string starts or ends with a
particular value. Always true if the given text is empty or if the
string is identical to the given text.
- there are some cases in which the C-style sprintf is much more
convenient, albeit problematic for buffer overwrites.
Provide a formatting version of Foam::name() for language
primitives that is buffer-safe.
Returns a Foam::word, so that further output will be unquoted, but
without any checking that the characters are indeed entirely valid
word characters.
Example use,
i = 1234;
s = Foam::name("%08d", i);
produces '00001234'
Alternative using string streams:
std::ostringstream buf;
buf.fill('0');
buf << setw(8) << i;
s = buf.str();
Note that the format specification can also be slightly more complex:
Foam::name("output%08d.vtk", i);
Foam::name("timing=%.2fs", time);
It remains the caller's responsibility to ensure that the format mask
is valid.
- syntax as per Bourne/Korn shell
${parameter:+altValue}
If parameter is unset or null, nothing is substituted.
Otherwise the \c altValue is substituted.
- syntax as per Bourne/Korn shell
${parameter:-defValue}
If parameter is unset or null, the \c defValue is substituted.
Otherwise, the value of parameter is substituted.
- eg,
"$USER $(PWD) $USER" -> "username $(PWD) $USER"
instead of
"$USER $(PWD) $USER" -> "username $(PWD) username"
this is noticable in some dynamicCode usages
STYLE: consolidate all string expand code into stringOps
- objectRegistry gets a rename() that also adjusts the dbDir
- cloud reworked to use static variables subInstance and defaultName.
This avoids writing "lagrangian" everywhere
string fixes
- avoid masking of std::string::replace in string.H
- avoid old strstream in PV3FoamReader
- it was possible to create a PackedList::iterator from a
PackedList::const_iterator and violate const-ness
- added HashTable::printInfo for emitting some information
- changed default table sizes from 100 -> 128 in preparation for future
2^n table sizes
- a possible future replacement for keyType, but the immediate use is the
wordReList for grepping through other lists.
- note that the argList treatment of '(' ... ')' yields quoted strings,
which we can use for building a wordReList
minor cleanup of regExp class
- constructor from std::string, match std::string and
operator=(std::string&)
rely on automatic conversion to Foam::string
- ditch partialMatch with sub-groups, it doesn't make much sense
- Istream and Ostream now retain backslashes when reading/writing strings.
The previous implementation simply discarded them, except when used to
escape a double-quote or a newline. It is now vitally important to retain
them, eg for quoting regular expression meta-characters.
The backslash continues to be used as an escape character for double-quote
and newline, but otherwise get passed through "as-is" without any other
special meaning (ie, they are *NOT* C-style strings). This helps avoid
'backslash hell'!
For example,
string: "match real dots \.+, question mark \? or any char .*"
C-style: "match real dots \\.+, question mark \\? or any char .*"
- combined subfiles in db/IOstreams, some had more copyright info than code
- OPstreamI.H contained only private methods, moved into OPstream.C
Are these really correct?
IOstreams/Istream.H:# include "HashTable.C"
token/token.H:#define NoHashTableC
