A new header named TypeList.h and the type lists have been redefined in
this new file. All the types have been renamed from `TypeListTag*` to
`TypeList*`. TypeListTag.h has been gutted to provide deprecated
versions of the old type list names.
There were also some other type lists that were changed from using the
old `ListTagBase` to the new `List`.
The VTK file reader caused an error to be thrown when reading a file
that had a METADATA section at the end of the file. The problem was that
the METADATA section had some whitespace after its last line (which is
probably typical). This caused an eof check to pass and then a
subsequent search for a token to fail.
The solution was to eat the whitespace after the METADATA section to get
the reader at the next token or in eof condition if it is at the end of
the file.
By removing the ability to have multiple CellSets in a DataSet
we can simplify the following things:
- Cell Fields now don't require a CellSet name when being constructed
- Filters don't need to manage what the active cellset is
The poly data and unstructured grid readers have to permute the cell
data to componsate for differences between VTK and VTK-m cell shapes.
Previously, this permutation was implemented by casting the read data to
a type and then changing the data. However, some code paths caused the
cast to fail. Get around that by doing the permutation in line when the
data are read.
Previously, the VTK file readers just skipped over everything in FIELD
sections. However, it is common for many point and cell fields to be
written in this section (it is how ParaView writes out most of its
data). This change will allow these fields to be read in correctly.
Previously, if a legacy VTK file had a METADATA section with an
INFORMATION subsection, the reader did not skip over it correctly.
Instead, it just read the rest of the file (and often encountered an
error). Change this to read and skip over the INFORMATION subsection
correctly.
The original implementation predates the logging and so just outputted
error and warning messages to stderr. Changed these to the more
appropriate logging mechanism.
It is very easy to cause ODR violations with DeviceAdapterTagCuda.
If you include that header from a C++ file and a CUDA file inside
the same program we an ODR violation. The reasons is that the C++
versions will say the tag is invalid, and the CUDA will say the
tag is valid.
The solution to this is that any compilation unit that includes
DeviceAdapterTagCuda from a version of VTK-m that has CUDA enabled
must be invoked by the cuda compiler.
`vtkm::cont::testing` now initializes with logging enabled and support
for device being passed on the command line, `vtkm::testing` only
enables logging.
When you call VariantArrayHandle::CastAndCall, it now tries both basic
storage and virtual storage. You can modify the types of storages tried
by giving a type list of storage tags as the first argument.
Sandia National Laboratories recently changed management from the
Sandia Corporation to the National Technology & Engineering Solutions
of Sandia, LLC (NTESS). The copyright statements need to be updated
accordingly.
Removed the PICS.h file which was the initial file for the particle advection
filter. Updated the BOV reader for compile warning fixes and formatting issues.
- Exception classes cannot be exported due to MSVC's design decisions.
See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24511376. We must leave these
classes as header only and silence the warnings.
- TransferResource in BufferState.h must remain a header-only class since
there is no vtkm_interop library to compile the class into.
- The VTKDataSetReader hierarchy must similarly remain header-only since
there is no vtkm_io library.
- The OptionParser Action classes are part of a header-only utility and
cannot be easily compiled into a library.
