Detailed Description

Executes system calls, entered in the form of a string lists.

Calls can be made at the following points in the calculation:

  • every time step
  • every output time
  • end of the calculation

Example of function object specification:

systemCall1
{
    type            systemCall;

    libs            ("libutilityFunctionObjects.so");

    executeCalls
    (
        "echo execute"
    );

    writeCalls
    (
        "echo \*\*\* writing data \*\*\*"
    );

    endCalls
    (
        "echo \*\*\* writing .bashrc \*\*\*"
        "cat ~/.bashrc"
        "echo \*\*\* done \*\*\*"
    );
}
Usage
Property Description Required Default value
type type name: systemCall yes
executeCalls list of calls on execute yes
writeCalls list of calls on write yes
endCalls list of calls on end yes

Note: Since this function object executes system calls, there is a potential security risk. In order to use the systemCall function object, the allowSystemOperations must be set to '1'; otherwise, system calls will not be allowed.
