\chapter{Changes Since First Printing}
|
|
There have been several changes to the \exo{} API in the years since
|
|
the original \exo{} report was published. The main changes are:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Addition of Coordinate Frames.
|
|
\item Addition of node set and side set results variables.
|
|
\item Addition of element block, node set, side set, element map, and
|
|
node map names.
|
|
\item Support for very large model.
|
|
\item Efficient replication of the model definition ``genesis''
|
|
portion of the database.
|
|
\item Multiple, optional named node and element maps which can be used
|
|
for any purpose.
|
|
\item Support for ``meshes'' with no node or elements; or nodes, but
|
|
no elements.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
There have also been some functions added to make it easier to write
|
|
an \exo{} database efficiently. These include:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item API function to write concatenated element block information,
|
|
and
|
|
\item API function to defined all results data with one function call.
|
|
\end{itemize}
