- The new field needs initialization with a dimensioned<Type> not just
the dimensionSet.
- The new field was also incorrectly being registered, which could
cause issues later.
Old code:
Found 10990 time steps
Search for moving mesh ... no moving mesh detected.
Startup in 329.09 s
Updated:
Found 10990 time steps
Search for moving mesh ... no moving mesh detected.
Startup in 1.6 s
- Cause was checking "polyMesh/points" via an IOobject.
Short-circuit with a check for a polyMesh/ directory first.
Limit the check to the master-node as well to further reduce
load on the file-system.

ENH: improve per-step conversion times for foamToEnsight.
Old code:
Converting 11001 time steps
Time [0] = 0 Wrote in 1.53 s
Time [1] = 1 Wrote in 1.52 s
...
Time [100] = 100 Elapsed time 205.35 s
Updated:
Converting 11001 time steps
Time [0] = 0 Wrote in 1.4 s
Time [1] = 1 Wrote in 0.07 s
...
Time [100] = 100 Elapsed time 42.4 s
- Speedup by hashing test results from the first conversion step
instead of checking each time.
Check data on all nodes to avoid problems with incomplete writes.
------------------------------
BUG: moving mesh detection failed for foamToEnsightParts
- adjusted to agree with updated foamToEnsight
------------------------------
Note:
- foamToEnsightParts (serial) still has about twice the throughput of
foamToEnsight.
- Default is a width of 8 characters, but this can be extended up to 31
characters via the '-width' command-line option.
- Now use a similar structure as foamToEnsightParts for the masking.
This reduces the clutter within the directory, makes it easier to
selectively delete some time steps (using shell commands).
- Added in a "time" information data in each sub-directory to
make it possible to reconstruct the case file with an external
script.
- Conversion of cloud data should now also work in parallel
(may need more testing).
- Support binary output for cloud data.
- Better avoidance of illegal ensight variable names.
But still partially incomplete (due to patch fields).
==================================================
Example of NEW file structure:
EnSight/verticalChannel.case # case name
EnSight/geometry # for non-moving geometry
EnSight/data/ # time-varying data
EnSight/data/00000000/
EnSight/data/00000001/
...
Fields are stored by name within the data/********/ directories:
EnSight/data/00000001/time # human-readable time info
EnSight/data/00000001/U
EnSight/data/00000001/p
...
EnSight/data/00000001/geometry # for moving geometry
Clouds are stored at the next sub-directory level:
EnSight/data/00000001/lagrangian/<cloudName>/positions
EnSight/data/00000001/lagrangian/<cloudName>/U
...
==================================================
The old structure was significantly more cluttered:
EnSight/verticalChannel.case
EnSight/verticalChannel.0000.mesh
EnSight/verticalChannel.0001.p
EnSight/verticalChannel.0001.<cloudName>
EnSight/verticalChannel.0001.<cloudName>.U
==================================================
- There will be triangles rendered inside the mesh (when
surface-rendering), because one of the cell's triangles is defined
as a quadrangle in VTK_WEDGE.
- Therefore, this VTK_WEDGE representation is only used when
decomposing the mesh, otherwise the correct representation is done
by VTK_POLYHEDRON.
- Furthermore, using VTK_PYRAMID gave worse result, because it renders
2 triangles inside the mesh for the collapsed quadrangle, likely due
to mismatch with the adjacent cell's face.
- Using VTK_HEXAHEDRON was not tested in this iteration, given that it
should give even worse results, when compared to using VTK_PYRAMID.

Now the functionality to write single graph files or log files (vs time)
may be used in the creation of any form of functionObject, not just
those relating to a mesh region.
- the checking for point-connected multiple-regions now also writes the
conflicting points to a pointSet
- with the -writeSets option it now also reconstructs & writes pointSets
- patchFields now get mapped (instead of created)
- with -consistent it now maps all patches except for processor ones (they are
the only ones that are processor-local)
- all constraint patches get evaluated after mapping to bring them up to date.

Added the option '-subDict' to specify a sub-dictionary if multiple
replacement sets are present in the same file. This also provides
backward compatibility by setting '-subDict dictionaryReplacement'

To re-use existing 'sampleDict' files simply add the following entries:
type sets;
libs ("libsampling.so");
and run
postProcess -func sampleDict
It is probably better to also rename 'sampleDict' -> 'sample' and then run
postProcess -func sampleDict
Replaced the 'postProcess' argument to the 'write' and 'execute'
functions with the single static member 'postProcess' in the
functionObject base-class.
In parallel the sets are reconstructed. e.g.
mpirun -np 6 checkMesh -parallel -allGeometry -allTopology -writeSets vtk
will create a postProcessing/ folder with the vtk files of the
(reconstructed) faceSets and cellSets.
Also improved analysis of disconnected regions now also checks for point
connectivity with is useful for detecting if AMI regions have duplicate
points.

Replaces the dictionary access functionality of foamInfoExec and
provides additional options to edit individual entries.

The normal library system() command uses 'fork', which causes
problems on IB+OPENMPI.
STYLE: add Foam:: qualifier to system calls to make them easier to spot.
- remove old VTK_CONVEX_POINT_SET code, since VTK_POLYHEDRON exists
since several years
ENH: improve robustness of paraFoam script
- only check the relevant plugin types,
fallback to native reader if needed/possible.
