Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ switchType

enum switchType : unsigned char

Switch enumerations corresponding to common text representations.

Note
The values here are critical for its proper behaviour. The values correspond to an index into the predefined output names for the c_str() method and the lower bit is tested for determining the true/false bool value.
Enumerator
FALSE 

"false"

TRUE 

"true"

NO 

"no"

YES 

"yes"

OFF 

"off"

ON 

"on"

NONE 

"none"

ANY 

"any"

INVALID 

"invalid" (output only)

Construct from character array - catches bad input.

Use static find() method for a failsafe alternative

◆ Switch() [8/15]

Switch ( const float  val,
const float  tol = 0.5 
)
explicit

Construct from float with rounding to zero given by the tolerance (default: 0.5)

Definition at line 200 of file Switch.C.

◆ Switch() [9/15]

Switch ( const double  val,
const double  tol = 0.5 
)
explicit

Construct from double with rounding to zero given by the tolerance (default: 0.5)

Definition at line 206 of file Switch.C.

◆ Switch() [10/15]

Switch ( const token tok)
explicit

Construct from token. Handles bool/label/word types.

Definition at line 212 of file Switch.C.

References bool, token::boolToken(), token::good(), token::isBool(), token::isLabel(), token::isWord(), token::labelToken(), and token::wordToken().

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ Switch() [11/15]

Switch ( const word key,
const dictionary dict 
)

Construct from dictionary lookup.

FatalError if anything is incorrect.

Parameters
keyLookup key. Uses LITERAL (not REGEX)
dictdictionary

Definition at line 235 of file Switch.C.

References dict, Foam::exit(), Foam::FatalIOError, FatalIOErrorInFunction, dictionary::get(), Switch::good(), Foam::glTF::key(), keyType::LITERAL, and Foam::printTokenError().

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ Switch() [12/15]

Switch ( const word key,
const dictionary dict,
const Switch  deflt,
const bool  failsafe = false 
)

Find the key in the dictionary and use the corresponding switch value or the default if not found in dictionary.

FatalIOError if the switch name is incorrect. Specifying failsafe downgrades the FatalIOError to an IOWarning.

Parameters
keyLookup key. Uses LITERAL (not REGEX)
dictdictionary
defltfallback if not found
failsafeWarn only on bad input
