Detailed Description

Watches for presence of the named trigger file in the case directory and signals a simulation stop (or other) event if found.

The presence of the trigger file is only checked on the master process.

Currently the following action types are supported:

noWriteNow
writeNow
nextWrite

Example of function object specification:

abort
{
    type    abort;
    libs    (utilityFunctionObjects);

    file    "<case>/GOODBYE";
    action  writeNow
}

Function object usage

Property	Description	Required	Default
`type`	Type name: abort	yes
`file`	The trigger filename	no	<case>/name
`action`	The default action to trigger	no	nextWrite

When the trigger file is found, it is checked for the following content which corresponds to actions.

action=noWriteNow : triggers Foam::Time::saNoWriteNow (stop without writing data)
action=writeNow : triggers Foam::Time::saWriteNow (stop and write data)
action=nextWrite : triggers Foam::Time::saNextWrite (stop after next normal data write)
action=endTime : triggers Foam::Time::saEndTime (continue simulation to the end)
Anything else (empty file, no action=, ...) : use the default action

Note: The trigger file is considered "sticky". This means that once detected and processed, the trigger is duly noted and the file will not be rechecked. It is not possible or desirable to 'untrigger' an action.
