Detailed Description

A List of scalarRange for selecting times.

The timeSelector provides a convenient means of selecting multiple times. A typical use would be the following:

timeSelector::addOptions();
// add other options
#include "setRootCase.H"
#include "createTime.H"
instantList timeDirs = timeSelector::select0(runTime, args);
...
forAll(timeDirs, timei)
{
    ...
}

The result program would receive -time, -latestTime, -constant and -noZero options. The -constant option explicitly includes the constant/ directory in the time list and the -noZero option explicitly excludes the 0/ directory from the time list.

There may however also be many cases in which neither the constant/ directory nor the 0/ directory contain particularly relevant information. This might occur, for example, when post-processing results. In this case, addOptions is called with optional boolean arguments.

timeSelector::addOptions(false, true);

The first argument avoids adding the -constant option. The second argument adds an additional -withZero option and also prevents the 0/ directory from being included in the default time range and in the -latestTime selection.

◆ addOptions()

void addOptions ( const bool  constant = true,

)
static

Add timeSelector options to argList::validOptions.

Parameters
constantAdd the -constant option to include the constant/ directory
withZeroEnable the -withZero option and alter the normal time selection behaviour (and -latestTime behaviour) to exclude the 0/ directory. The 0/ directory will only be included when -withZero is specified. The -noZero option has precedence over the -withZero option.
