With the major revision 2.0 of VTK-m, many items previously marked as
deprecated were removed. If updating to a new version of VTK-m, it is
recommended to first update to VTK-m 1.9, which will include the deprecated
features but provide warnings (with the right compiler) that will point to
the replacement code. Once the deprecations have been fixed, updating to
2.0 should be smoother.
This mechanism sets up CMake variables that allow a user to select which
modules/libraries to create. Dependencies will be tracked down to ensure
that all of a module's dependencies are also enabled.
The modules are also arranged into groups.
Groups allow you to set the enable flag for a group of modules at once.
Thus, if you have several modules that are likely to be used together,
you can create a group for them.
This can be handy in converting user-friendly CMake options (such as
`VTKm_ENABLE_RENDERING`) to the modules that enable that by pointing to
the appropriate group.
This commit address issue #713 and removes the need to pass information
about the spatial decomposition (block origins, block sizes, block index
and blocks per dimension) to the contour tree filter. Block origin
information is added to CellSetStructured (as GlobalPointSize) and the
distributed contour tree filter will get this information from
CellSetStructured instead of expecting it as parameters to the
constructor. Information about blocks per dimension and block indices
are computed from the information in CellSetStructure albeit requiring
global communication across all ranks. To avoid this communication cost,
the caller of the filter may explicitly specify this information via the
SetBlockIndices() method.
There was an error that caused deprecation warnings in VTK-m to be
suppressed, which meant that many uses of deprecated features went
unnoticed. This fixes those deprecation warnings.
The majority of the warnings were caused by the use of the deprecated
`Cast`, `CopyTo`, and `ResetTypes` methods of `UnknownArrayHandle` (or
`VariantArrayHandle`). Both `Cast` and `CopyTo` have been subsumed by
`AsArrayHandle` (to make the functionality more clear). `ResetTypes` now
requires a second template argument to define the storage types to try.
Also fixed some issues with `SerializableField` being deprecated.
This class is no longer necessary because `Field` can now be directly
serialized.
This merge request is Phase 1 of several to implement the distributed parallel
contour tree in VTKm. This merge requests adds the base outline for the
algorithm. The implementation of the details of the algorithm in the
BoundaryRestrictedAugmentedContourTree.h is currently still missing.
However, these will require a substantial (~3000) lines of additional code.
The goal is to stage the integration process across merge requests to make
the review process simpler.
These are caused when using 32-bit Id's. Although there are some
benchmarks that test for this, some code in benchmarking and examples is
not covered by them.
