Class
    Foam::vtk::surfaceFieldWriter
 
Description
    Write surfaces fields (as PointData) in VTP format.
    Legacy VTK format is intentionally not supported.
 
    The file output is structured as HEAD, FIELD_DATA, PIECE followed by any
    CELL_DATA or POINT_DATA. These states are tracked internally to help
    detect logic errors.
 
    The FieldData element is to be placed prior to writing any geometry
    Piece. This moves the information to the front of the output file
    for visibility and simplifies the logic.
 
Note
    Parallel output is combined into a single Piece without point merging,
    which is similar to using multi-piece data sets, but allows more
    convenient creation as a streaming process.
    In the future, the duplicate points at processor connections
    may be addressed using ghost points.
