MeshOutput() [1/2]

template<class MT >

libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::MeshOutput ( const bool  is_parallel_format = false, const bool  serial_only_needed_on_proc_0 = false  )

explicitprotected

Default constructor.

Will set the _obj to nullptr, effectively rendering this object useless.

MeshOutput() [2/2]

template<class MT>

libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::MeshOutput ( const MT &  obj, const bool  is_parallel_format = false, const bool  serial_only_needed_on_proc_0 = false  )

explicitprotected

Constructor.

Takes a reference to a constant object. This constructor will only allow us to write the object.

Member Function Documentation

ascii_precision()

template<class MT >

unsigned int & libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::ascii_precision

(

)

Return/set the precision to use when writing ASCII files.

By default we use numeric_limits<Real>::digits10 + 2, which should be enough to write out to ASCII and get the exact same Real back when reading in.

{
  return _ascii_precision;
}

mesh()

template<class MT >

const MT & libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::mesh ( ) const

protected

Returns

The object as a read-only reference.

write()

template<class MT>

virtual void libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::write ( const std::string &  )

pure virtual

This method implements writing a mesh to a specified file.

Implemented in libMesh::EnsightIO, libMesh::CheckpointIO, libMesh::VTKIO, libMesh::XdrIO, libMesh::GmshIO, libMesh::UCDIO, libMesh::ExodusII_IO, libMesh::UNVIO, libMesh::Nemesis_IO, libMesh::GMVIO, libMesh::TetGenIO, libMesh::NameBasedIO, libMesh::PostscriptIO, libMesh::MEDITIO, libMesh::GnuPlotIO, libMesh::TecplotIO, and libMesh::FroIO.

write_discontinuous_equation_systems()

template<class MT>

virtual void libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::write_discontinuous_equation_systems ( const std::string &  , const EquationSystems &  , const std::set< std::string > *  system_names = nullptr  )

virtual

This method implements writing a mesh with discontinuous data to a specified file where the data is taken from the EquationSystems object.

write_equation_systems()

template<class MT>

virtual void libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::write_equation_systems ( const std::string &  , const EquationSystems &  , const std::set< std::string > *  system_names = nullptr  )

virtual

This method implements writing a mesh with data to a specified file where the data is taken from the EquationSystems object.

Reimplemented in libMesh::NameBasedIO.

write_nodal_data() [1/2]

template<class MT>

virtual void libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::write_nodal_data ( const std::string &  , const std::vector< Number > &  , const std::vector< std::string > &    )

virtual

This method implements writing a mesh with nodal data to a specified file where the nodal data and variable names are provided.

Reimplemented in libMesh::ExodusII_IO, libMesh::Nemesis_IO, libMesh::GmshIO, libMesh::UCDIO, libMesh::NameBasedIO, libMesh::GMVIO, libMesh::VTKIO, libMesh::MEDITIO, libMesh::GnuPlotIO, and libMesh::TecplotIO.

Definition at line 105 of file mesh_output.h.

  { libmesh_not_implemented(); }

write_nodal_data() [2/2]

template<class MT>

virtual void libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::write_nodal_data ( const std::string &  , const NumericVector< Number > &  , const std::vector< std::string > &    )

virtual

This method should be overridden by "parallel" output formats for writing nodal data.

Instead of getting a localized copy of the nodal solution vector, it is passed a NumericVector of type=PARALLEL which is in node-major order i.e. (u0,v0,w0, u1,v1,w1, u2,v2,w2, u3,v3,w3, ...) and contains n_nodes*n_vars total entries. Then, it is up to the individual I/O class to extract the required solution values from this vector and write them in parallel.

If not implemented, localizes the parallel vector into a std::vector and calls the other version of this function.

Reimplemented in libMesh::Nemesis_IO.

write_nodal_data_discontinuous()

template<class MT>

virtual void libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::write_nodal_data_discontinuous ( const std::string &  , const std::vector< Number > &  , const std::vector< std::string > &    )

virtual

This method implements writing a mesh with discontinuous data to a specified file where the nodal data and variables names are provided.

Reimplemented in libMesh::ExodusII_IO.

Member Data Documentation

_ascii_precision

template<class MT>

unsigned int libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::_ascii_precision

private

Precision to use when writing ASCII files.

Definition at line 182 of file mesh_output.h.

_is_parallel_format

template<class MT>

const bool libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::_is_parallel_format

protected

Flag specifying whether this format is parallel-capable.

If this is false (default) I/O is only permitted when the mesh has been serialized.

Definition at line 159 of file mesh_output.h.

_obj

template<class MT>

const MT* const libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::_obj

private

A pointer to a constant object.

This allows us to write the object to file.

Definition at line 177 of file mesh_output.h.

_serial_only_needed_on_proc_0

template<class MT>

const bool libMesh::MeshOutput< MT >::_serial_only_needed_on_proc_0

protected

Flag specifying whether this format can be written by only serializing the mesh to processor zero.

If this is false (default) the mesh will be serialized to all processors
