The previous version of the bounds code required once less pass across
the data, but significantly increase the size of the resulting library:
Data for VTK-VTK-m interop:
- 7k more symbol table entries
- 1.5MB larger library
Because of the significant savings we need to use a less efficient
implementation that minimized the code size.
Certain algorithms like VertexClustering only work on certain cellset types.
It is pointless to generate the code paths for structured data cell sets,
when the algorithm can't operate on those dataset types.
VTK-m style guidelines dictate that all classes part of the API should
be in their own header file. Thus, we have moved the result classes out
of the filter header files and into their own headers.
We have also renamed these clases to ResultField and ResultDataSet to
better match the class naming conventions of VTK-m.
Since we are moving around these result classes, we have also revamped
their structure. They are now in a hierarchy with a common ResultBase
class. Additionally, all result classes have a reference to a complete
DataSet that can be considered the output of the filter. This will make
it easier for users to consistently deal with filter results.
These changes cover issues #60 and #62.
The base classes for all the filters are named with 'Filter' at the end.
Generally the convention in VTK-m is to place the most general
descriptor (in this case Filter) first, which makes it easier to find
items in ordered lists.
This commit resolves issue #59.
