- the default (uninitialised) value for edge connections of -1
could be confused with a tagged finiteArea patch, which used
(-patchid-1) encoding. This would lead to messages about erroneous
processor-processor addressing, but is in fact an mismatched edge
connection.
Now tag the finiteArea patch as (-patchid-2) to avoid this ambiguity
and correctly generate an "Undefined connection:" message instead.
Properly flush the VTP writers before raising a FatalError
to ensure that they are not prematurely truncated.
Open Point:
The base problem of "Undefined connection:" is largely related to
multiply-connected face edges (ie, from the underlying volume mesh).
Not easily remedied in the finiteArea generation.
