reconstructParMesh does not reconstruct finiteArea
Functionality to add/problem to solve
reconstructParMesh does not reconstruct the finiteArea mesh.
- generate/modify volume mesh in parallel
- run makeFaMesh in parallel
- now there is no mapping from parallel faMesh back to an undecomposed faMesh (edgeProcAddressing, faceProcAddressing etc.)
Target audience
See above
Proposal
Extend reconstructParMesh with finiteArea. Default is on, disable with -no-finite-area flag (like decomposePar)
What does success look like, and how can we measure that?
Same result whether to run makeFaMesh in serial and decomposing volume and finite-area mesh or run it in parallel after decomposing volume mesh.
