    simpleFoam: Added experimental "-postProcess" option · cc455173
    Henry Weller authored
        Executes application functionObjects to post-process existing results.
    
        If the "dict" argument is specified the functionObjectList is constructed
        from that dictionary otherwise the functionObjectList is constructed from
        the "functions" sub-dictionary of "system/controlDict"
    
        Multiple time-steps may be processed and the standard utility time
        controls are provided.
    
    This functionality is equivalent to execFlowFunctionObjects but in a
    more efficient and general manner and will be included in all the
    OpenFOAM solvers if it proves effective and maintainable.
    
    The command-line options available with the "-postProcess" option may be
    obtained by
    
    simpleFoam -help -postProcess
    
    Usage: simpleFoam [OPTIONS]
    options:
      -case <dir>       specify alternate case directory, default is the cwd
      -constant         include the 'constant/' dir in the times list
      -dict <file>      read control dictionary from specified location
      -latestTime       select the latest time
      -newTimes         select the new times
      -noFunctionObjects
                        do not execute functionObjects
      -noZero           exclude the '0/' dir from the times list, has precedence
                        over the -withZero option
      -parallel         run in parallel
      -postProcess      Execute functionObjects only
      -region <name>    specify alternative mesh region
      -roots <(dir1 .. dirN)>
                        slave root directories for distributed running
      -time <ranges>    comma-separated time ranges - eg, ':10,20,40:70,1000:'
      -srcDoc           display source code in browser
      -doc              display application documentation in browser
      -help             print the usage
