Some of the data sets that are included from VTK-m are derived from the
VisIt Tutorial Data (https://www.visitusers.org/index.php?title=Tutorial_Data).
These are covered by the VisIt license, as communicated by Eric Brugger.
Although the license for these data is compatible with VTK-m's license,
we should still attribute the source of the data and make clear the
copyrights. The data are moved into the third_party directory, and
readmes are added to document everything.
The noise.vtk and noise.bov files have been renamed example.vtk and
example_temp.bov to match the name of the file in the VisIt tutorial
data archive. The ucd3d.vtk file, which is similar to the curv3d.silo
data but altered, has been removed. It was not used for any tests. It
was referenced in a couple of example programs, but the reference is
easily changed.
Some of the test data sets are derived from data sets that are commonly
distributed to test visualization algorithms and are featured in
numerous papers. However, I am unable to track down the original source
let alone identify what license, if any, they were released under. To
avoid any complications with data ownership, remove these data sets and
replace them with in house data sets that we explicitly own.
The member variables of the `vtkm::Particle` classes are now hidden. This
means that external code will not be directly able to access member
variables like `Pos`, `Time`, and `ID`. Instead, these need to be retrieved
and changed through accessor methods.
This follows standard C++ principles. It also helps us future-proof the
classes. It means that we can provide subclasses or alternate forms of
`Particle` that operate differently. It also makes it possible to change
interfaces while maintaining a deprecated interface.

During the VTK-m 1.8 and 1.9 development, the filter infrastructure was
overhauled. Part of this created a completely new set of base classes. To
avoid confusion with the original filter base classes and ease transition,
the new filter base classes were named `NewFilter*`. Eventually after all
filters were transitioned, the old filter base classes were deprecated.
With the release of VTK-m 2.0, the old filter base classes are removed. The
"new" filter base classes are no longer new. Thus, they have been renamed
simply `Filter` (and `FilterField`).
Originally, most of the sources used constructor parameters to set the
various options of the source. Although convenient, it was difficult to
keep track of what each parameter meant. To make the code more clear,
source parameters are now set with accessor functions (e.g.
`SetPointDimensions`). Although this makes code more verbose, it helps
prevent mistakes and makes the changes more resilient to future changes.
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.
When you used the `AddHelp` option to `Initialize`, it added a
`--vtkm-help` option and `-h`, but not `--help`, which was weird. It
also avoided adding `--vtkm-help` when `AddHelp` was not used, but did
print out a usage statement under other circumstances.
This changes the behavior to add `--vtkm-help`, `--help`, and `-h` when
`AddHelp` is on and only `--vtkm-help` when it is off.
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.

Through hard work, the simple demo example no longer needs to be
compiled with a device compiler, and thus it is no longer necessary to
add the special CMake for it. In fact, adding such information can be
problematic in some cases.
The enumerations in `vtkm::cont::Field::Association` were renamed in the
previous commit. The old names still exist, but are deprecated. Change
the rest of the code to use the new names.
Reenable the `vtkm::filter::CellMetric` class and
`vtkm::filter::MetricNames` static variable for backward compatibility.
(Both are of course marked deprecated.)
Also, adjust names in the new `vtkm::filter::mesh_info::CellMetric` to
conform with the rest of VTK-m style for scoped enums.
