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.
Add deprecation warnings to the code whenever someone uses brigand.hpp.
We are no longer supporting this header file, but we'll give code a
chance to transition off of it.
Also added some other deprecation warnings to other header files that
are themselves deprecated but only issued warnings if you used something
in it.
The actual code for AtomicArrayExecutionObject does not need to be
specialized by the device. The functionality is implemented by calling
the vtkm::Atomic* methods, which are properly implemented on each
device.
The old version of ExecutionObject (that only takes a device) is still
supported, but you will get a deprecated warning if that is what is
defined.
Supporing this also included sending vtkm::cont::Token through the
vtkm::cont::arg::Transport mechanism, which was a change that propogated
through a lot of code.
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 newer List operations should still work on the old ListTags, so make
those changes first to ensure that everything still works as expected if
given an old ListTag.
Next step is to deprecate ListTagBase itself and move all the lists to
the new types.
- Use AtomicInterface to implement device-specific atomic operations.
- Remove DeviceAdapterAtomicArrayImplementations.
- Extend supported atomic types to include unsigned 32/64-bit ints.
- Add a static_assert to check that AtomicArray type is supported.
- Add documentation for AtomicArrayExecutionObject, including a CAS
example.
- Add a `T Get(idx)` method to AtomicArrayExecutionObject that does
an atomic load, and update existing CAS usage to use this instead
of `Add(idx, 0)`.
