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 `From` and `To` nomenclature for topology mapping has been confusing for
both users and developers, especially at lower levels where the intention of
mapping attributes from one element to another is easily conflated with the
concept of mapping indices (which maps in the exact opposite direction).
These identifiers have been renamed to `VisitTopology` and `IncidentTopology`
to clarify the direction of the mapping. The order in which these template
parameters are specified for `WorkletMapTopology` have also been reversed,
since eventually there may be more than one `IncidentTopology`, and having
`IncidentTopology` at the end will allow us to replace it with a variadic
template parameter pack in the future.
Other implementation details supporting these worklets, include `Fetch` tags,
`Connectivity` classes, and methods on the various `CellSet` classes (such as
`PrepareForInput` have also reversed their template arguments. These will need
to be cautiously updated.
The convenience implementations of `WorkletMapTopology` have been renamed for
clarity as follows:
```
WorkletMapPointToCell --> WorkletVisitCellsWithPoints
WorkletMapCellToPoint --> WorkletVisitPointsWithCells
```
The `ControlSignature` tags have been renamed as follows:
```
FieldInTo --> FieldInVisit
FieldInFrom --> FieldInMap
FromCount --> IncidentElementCount
FromIndices --> IncidentElementIndices
```
`vtkm::cont::testing` now initializes with logging enabled and support
for device being passed on the command line, `vtkm::testing` only
enables logging.
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.
Change the VTKM_CONT_EXPORT to VTKM_CONT. (Likewise for EXEC and
EXEC_CONT.) Remove the inline from these macros so that they can be
applied to everything, including implementations in a library.
Because inline is not declared in these modifies, you have to add the
keyword to functions and methods where the implementation is not inlined
in the class.
Previously, DynamicArrayHandle and DynamicCellSet had slightly different
interfaces to their CastTo feature. It was a bit confusing and not all
that easy to use.
This change simplifies and unifies them by making each class have a single
CopyTo method that takes a reference to a cast object (an ArrayHandle or
CellSet, respectively) and fills that object with the data contained if
the cast is successfull. This interface gets around having to declare
strange types.
Each object also has a Cast method that has to have a template parameter
specified and returns a reference of that type (if possible).
In addition, the old behavior is preserved for DynamicArrayHandle (but
not DynamicCellSet). To avoid confusion, the name of that cast method is
CastToTypeStorage. However, the method was chaned to not take parameters
to make it consistent with the other Cast method.
Also, the IsType methods have been modified to reflect changes in
cast/copy. IsType now no longer takes arguments. However, an alternate
IsSameType does the same thing but does take an argument.
The parallel implementation in CellSetExplicit that builds cell-to-point
connectivity from point-to-cell connectivity uses a parallel sort-by-
key. The sort-by-key in the device adapter is not guaranteed to be
stable, so values associated with a particular key can be in any order.
The test for the result was expecting the connectivity array to be in a
particular order. Change the test to allow any connectivity ordering
that is still valid.
