Detailed Description

Flags for grid output in Vtk format. These flags are the same as those declared in DataOutBase::VtkFlags.

Definition at line 859 of file grid_out.h.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ ZlibCompressionLevel

Initial value:

A data type providing the different possible zlib compression levels. These map directly to constants defined by zlib.

Deprecated
Use DataOutBase::CompressionLevel instead.

Definition at line 1166 of file data_out_base.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Vtk()

GridOutFlags::Vtk::Vtk ( const bool output_cells = true,
const bool output_faces = true,
const bool output_edges = true,
const bool output_only_relevant = true )
inline

Default constructor.

Definition at line 864 of file grid_out.h.

Member Function Documentation

◆ declare_parameters()

void DataOutBase::OutputFlagsBase< VtkFlags >::declare_parameters ( ParameterHandler & prm)
staticinherited

Declare all flags with name and type as offered by this class, for use in input files.

This method does nothing, but child classes may override this method to add fields to prm.

Definition at line 574 of file data_out_base.h.

◆ parse_parameters()

void DataOutBase::OutputFlagsBase< VtkFlags >::parse_parameters ( const ParameterHandler & prm)
inherited

Read the parameters declared in declare_parameters() and set the flags for this output format accordingly.

This method does nothing, but child classes may override this method to add fields to prm.

Definition at line 584 of file data_out_base.h.

◆ memory_consumption()

std::size_t DataOutBase::OutputFlagsBase< VtkFlags >::memory_consumption ( ) const
inherited

Return an estimate for the memory consumption, in bytes, of this object. This is not exact (but will usually be close) because calculating the memory usage of trees (e.g., std::map) is difficult.

Definition at line 593 of file data_out_base.h.

Member Data Documentation

◆ output_cells

bool GridOutFlags::Vtk::output_cells

Output cells.

Definition at line 877 of file grid_out.h.

◆ output_faces

bool GridOutFlags::Vtk::output_faces

Output faces.

Definition at line 882 of file grid_out.h.

◆ output_edges

bool GridOutFlags::Vtk::output_edges

Output co-faces/edges.

Definition at line 887 of file grid_out.h.

◆ output_only_relevant

bool GridOutFlags::Vtk::output_only_relevant

Output only faces/co-faces that differ from the default settings (e.g boundary_id).

Definition at line 893 of file grid_out.h.

◆ time

double DataOutBase::VtkFlags::time
inherited

The time of the time step if this file is part of a time dependent simulation.

The value of this variable is written into the output file according to the instructions provided in http://www.visitusers.org/index.php?title=Time_and_Cycle_in_VTK_files unless it is at its default value of

std::numeric_limits<unsigned int>::min() 

.

Definition at line 1138 of file data_out_base.h.

◆ cycle

unsigned int DataOutBase::VtkFlags::cycle
inherited

The number of the time step if this file is part of a time dependent simulation, or the cycle within a nonlinear or other iteration.

The value of this variable is written into the output file according to the instructions provided in http://www.visitusers.org/index.php?title=Time_and_Cycle_in_VTK_files unless it is at its default value of

std::numeric_limits<unsigned int>::min() 

.

Definition at line 1150 of file data_out_base.h.

◆ print_date_and_time

bool DataOutBase::VtkFlags::print_date_and_time
inherited

Flag to determine whether the current date and time shall be printed as a comment in the file's second line.

Default is true.

Definition at line 1158 of file data_out_base.h.

◆ no_compression

const DataOutBase::CompressionLevel DataOutBase::VtkFlags::no_compression = DataOutBase::CompressionLevel::no_compression
staticinherited

Definition at line 1170 of file data_out_base.h.

◆ best_compression

const DataOutBase::CompressionLevel DataOutBase::VtkFlags::best_compression = DataOutBase::CompressionLevel::best_compression
staticinherited

Definition at line 1172 of file data_out_base.h.

◆ best_speed

const DataOutBase::CompressionLevel DataOutBase::VtkFlags::best_speed
staticinherited

◆ default_compression

const DataOutBase::CompressionLevel DataOutBase::VtkFlags::default_compression = DataOutBase::CompressionLevel::default_compression
staticinherited

Definition at line 1176 of file data_out_base.h.

◆ compression_level

DataOutBase::CompressionLevel DataOutBase::VtkFlags::compression_level
inherited

Flag determining the compression level at which zlib, if available, is run. The default is best_speed.

Definition at line 1182 of file data_out_base.h.

◆ write_higher_order_cells

bool DataOutBase::VtkFlags::write_higher_order_cells
inherited

Flag determining whether to write patches as linear cells or as a high-order Lagrange cell.

Default is false.

Note
The ability to write data that corresponds to higher order polynomials rather than simply linear or bilinear is a feature that was only introduced in VTK 8.1.0 in December 2017. You will need at least Paraview version 5.5.0 released in April 2018 or a similarly recent version of VisIt for this feature to work (for example, VisIt 3.1.1, released in February 2020, does not yet support this feature). Older versions of these programs are likely going to result in errors when trying to read files generated with this flag set to true. Experience with these programs shows that these error messages are likely going to be rather less descriptive and more obscure.

Definition at line 1201 of file data_out_base.h.

◆ physical_units

std::map<std::string, std::string> DataOutBase::VtkFlags::physical_units
inherited

A map that describes for (some or all) of the output quantities what the physical units are. This field is ignored for VTK file format, but used for VTU format where it is attached to the individual scalar, vector, or tensor fields for use by visualization or other postprocessing tools. The default is to not attach any physical units to fields at all, i.e., an empty map.

If the map does not contain an entry for a specific output variable, then no unit will be written into the output file. In other words, it is not an error to provide units for only some variables.

step-19, step-44 and step-69 all demonstrate how to use this variable.

Note
While the functions that make use of this information do not care about how physical units are specified, downstream postprocessing tools should and do. As a consequence, these units should be specified in a format that is understandable to these postprocessing tools. As an example, the unyt project describes a standard for describing and converting units.
