- use orte-info to determine prefix/libdir for openmpi.
  This removes a run-time dependency on mpicc, which is actually
  only needed for building with MPI (not running with MPI).
  The corresponding openmpi devel package (deb/rpm) will not
  necessarily be installed on a particular system.

- retain mpicc logic if the new logic using orte-info does not
  deliver an answer. Final fallback to using 'orterun' to
  infer prefix/libdir.

- Additional logic for intel and msmpi to make it easier to
  locate these vendor packages within ThirdParty
  (ie, under ThirdParty/opt/...)

CONFIG: improve robustness

- add check for absolute path when adding PATH/LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc.

- prefix more variables with '_foam*' to prevent accidental overwrite
  of userspace shell variables when sourcing

- avoid deprecated autoPtr check

- bundle bool values in fvPatchField for compacter allocation

- change useImplicit to a set method taking an argument instead of
  allowing direct access.

ENH: adjust fileName component method

- the location \c npos returns the last component

BUG: incorrect addressing in rcEdge, but not used in the code.

- top-level faceCells() on the boundary list simplifies the creation
  of lduAddressing etc, can also be useful on its own

STYLE: replace isA/refCast combination with a single isA

BUG: 2021-1: Various bug fixes and developments

See merge request !489

ENH: add xrange option

- writeCellData() and writePointData() for polyWriter
- writeProcIDs for generic vtk patch writer

- adjust zone addressing after surface face swap and upon construction

- slices on output and misses file/line information for IOerror

Not tested; from visual inspection

add point snapping to iso-surface topo algorithm (#2210)

See merge request !488

- helps avoid the creation of small face cuts (near corners, edges)
  that result in zero-size faces on output.

CONFIG: make default iso-surface topo regularisation less aggressive

- The full (diagcell) regularisation no longer includes cleaning of
  non-manifold surfaces by removing open edges.
  This can be selected by the 'clean' regularisation option instead.
  ie, 'clean' = 'full' + erode open edges

ENH: additional debug modes for iso-surface topo

- with (debug & 8) dumps out a VTK file of the tets to be cut and the
  calculated open edges.

- PstreamBuffers for parallel VTK output.
  - avoids MPI overflows for larger meshes

- new vtk::lineWriter for writing edges

- vtk::fileWriter::writeUniform now also supports processor-specific
  uniform values instead of assuming that they are identical everywhere.

- support simple mesh subsetting to vtu formats to enable debug output
  for a subsection of an existing polyMesh

- rudimentary support for VTK from cellShapes is intended for handling
  basic primitive cell shapes without a full blown polyMesh description.

  For example,

     // Create an empty polyMesh with points only
     polyMesh debugMesh
     (
         io,
         std::move(points),
         faceList(),     // faces
         labelList(),    // owner
         labelList(),    // neighbour
         true            // syncPar
     );

    // Establish the appropriate VTK sizing for the TET shapes
    vtk::vtuCells vtuCells;
    vtuCells.resetShapes(debugCutTets);
    vtuCells.nPoints(debugMesh.nPoints());

  NOTE
  Since the vtk::internalMeshWriter only uses the polyMesh reference
  for the points, it is also possible to create the vtuCells
  description without a pointField (or from a different mesh
  description) and write out the connectivity using the pointField
  from a different mesh.

STYLE: replace short-circuit Allrun script with Alltest

- replace unusable operator() calls with simple '<<' operations

ENH: interpolate in cylindrical coordinates: See #2145

See merge request Development/openfoam!483

mattijs authored 3 years ago and Mattijs Janssens committed 3 years ago

This intercepts all vector/tensor AMI interpolations and
does the interpolation in cylindrical coordinates.

Use (component) 'coupled' linear solver to enable this in
the linear solver sweeps.

- similar to additional flag for the raw surface writer (#2003)

  Example,
  ```
  formatOptions
  {
      vtk
      {
          normal      yes;
      }
  }

BUG: fix yPlus predictions of nut wall functions
