The `DynamicCellSet` (and the related `DynamicCellSetBase`) are
deprecated and replaced with `UnknownCellSet` (and `UncertainCellSet`).
Thus, `UnknownCellSet` has some methods inherited from `DynamicCellSet`
but replaced with other functionality. These methods are now marked as
deprecated and their use is removed.
`UnknownCellSet` is an updated replacement for `DynamicCellSet`. The
next step in the replacement is to change `DataSet` to use the new
class.
Also replaced `DynamicCellSet` with `UnknownCellSet` in a few
places where `DynamicCellSet.h` was not directly included (and
therefore now no longer included at all). This change would have
to be made at some point anyway.
We have been doing a better job at hiding device code (and moving code
into libraries). Smoke out source that no longer needs to be compiled by
device compilers.
The legacy VTK file writer writes out in ASCII. This is helpful when a
human is trying to read the file. However, if you have more than a
trivial amount of data, the file can get impractically large. To get
around this, `VTKDataSetWriter` now has a flag that allows you to write
the data in binary format.
For no particularly good reason, there were two functions that converted
and array of counts to an array of offsets: `ConvertNumComponentsToOffsets`
and `ConvertNumIndicesToOffsets`. These functions were identical, except
one was defined in `ArrayHandleGroupVecVariable.h` and the other was
defined in `CellSetExplicit.h`.
These two functions have been consolidated into one (which is now called
`ConvertNumComponentsToOffsets`). The consolidated function has also been
put in its own header file: `ConvertNumComponentsToOffsets.h`.
Normally, backward compatibility would be established using deprecated
features. However, one of the things being worked on is the removal of
device-specific code (e.g. `vtkm::cont::Algorithm`) from core classes like
`CellSetExplicit` so that less code needs to use the device compiler
(especially downstream code).
Part of this change removed unnecessary includes of `Algorithm.h` in
`ArrayHandleGroupVecVariable.h` and `CellSetExplicit.h`. This header had to
be added to some classes that were not including it themselves.
There were several places in the code that had to check the type of an
`UnknownArrayHandle` and conditionally get or copy that array. This code
is simplified by using `ArrayCopyShallowIfPossible`.
`VaraintArrayHandle` has been replaced by `UnknownArrayHandle` and
`UncertainArrayHandle`. Officially make it deprecated and point users to
the new implementations.
Reduces the amount of code that has to be generated. Also improves the
number of arrays supported and has better support for deprecated
versions of `GetRange`.
The circular dependency came from UnknownArrayHandle.h needing
VTKmDefaultTypes.h, which needed all the cell set types. Some of those
cell sets used ArrayCopy in templated functions. Changed those functions
to directly deep copy the ArrayHandle.
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 method allows you to extract an `ArrayHandle` from
`UnknownArrayHandle` when you only know the base component type.
Also removed the `Read/WritePortalForBaseComponentType` method
from `UnknownArrayHandle`. This functionality is subsumed by
`ExtractArrayFromComponents`.
This allows you to handle just about every type of array with about 10
basic types. It allows you to ignore both the size of `Vec`s and the
actual storage of the data.
