## Environment
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since OpenFOAM-v1612, `FOAM_INST_DIR` and `foamInstDir` no longer have any
|
|
|
special meanings when sourcing the `bashrc` or `cshrc` files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The outdated use of `foamInstDir` and `FOAM_INST_DIR` has been largely removed.
|
|
|
If you have environments that used these values, they may require
|
|
|
adjustment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Input dictionaries
|
|
|
|
|
|
### system/controlDict
|
|
|
|
|
|
Write compression value now takes a boolean value instead of the values `compressed` or `uncompressed`
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
writeCompression off;
|
|
|
```
|
