* Support default values for format/compress enum lookups.
- Avoids situations where the preferred default format is not ASCII.
For example, with dictionary input:
format binar;
The typing mistake would previously have caused formatEnum to
default to ASCII. We can now properly control its behaviour.
IOstream::formatEnum
(
dict.get<word>("format"), IOstream::BINARY
);
Allowing us to switch ascii/binary, using BINARY by default even in
the case of spelling mistakes. The mistakes are flagged, but the
return value can be non-ASCII.
* The format/compression lookup behave as pass-through if the lookup
string is empty.
- Allows the following to work without complaint
IOstream::formatEnum
(
dict.getOrDefault("format", word::null), IOstream::BINARY
);
- Or use constructor-like failsafe method
IOstream::formatEnum("format", dict, IOstream::BINARY);
- Apply the same behaviour with setting stream format/compression
from a word.
is.format("binar");
will emit a warning, but leave the stream format UNCHANGED
* Rationalize versionNumber construction
- constexpr constructors where possible.
Default construct is the "currentVersion"
- Construct from token to shift the burden to versionNumber.
Support token as argument to version().
Now:
is.version(headerDict.get<token>("version"));
or failsafe constructor method
is.version
(
IOstreamOption::versionNumber("version", headerDict)
);
Before (controlled input):
is.version
(
IOstreamOption::versionNumber
(
headerDict.get<float>("version")
)
);
Old, uncontrolled input - has been removed:
is.version(headerDict.lookup("version"));
* improve consistency, default behaviour for IOstreamOption construct
- constexpr constructors where possible
- add copy construct with change of format.
- construct IOstreamOption from streamFormat is now non-explicit.
This is a commonly expected result with no ill-effects
