Class
    Foam::functionObjects::readFields
 
Group
    grpFieldFunctionObjects
 
Description
    Reads fields from the time directories and adds them to the mesh database
    for further post-processing.
 
    Operands:
    \table
      Operand        | Type             | Location
      input          | vol<Type>Field | $FOAM_CASE/<time>/<inpField>
      output file    | -                | -
      output field   | vol<Type>Field | Mesh database
    \endtable
 
    where \c <Type>=Scalar/Vector/SphericalTensor/SymmTensor/Tensor.
 
Usage
    Minimal example by using \c system/controlDict.functions:
    \verbatim
    readFields1
    {
        // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
        type        readFields;
        libs        (fieldFunctionObjects);
 
        // Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
        fields      (<field1> <field2> ... <fieldN>);
 
        // Optional entries (runtime modifiable)
        readOnStart true;
 
        // Optional (inherited) entries
        ...
    }
    \endverbatim
 
    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property     | Description                        | Type | Req'd | Dflt
      type         | Type name: readFields              | word |  yes  | -
      libs         | Library name: fieldFunctionObjects | word |  yes  | -
      fields       | Names of the operand fields        | wordList |  yes  | -
      readOnStart  | Flag to start reading on start-up  | bool | no    | true
    \endtable
 
    The inherited entries are elaborated in:
     - \link functionObject.H \endlink
 
    Usage by the \c postProcess utility is not available.
