dump/avs is not working for writing a vector type attribute #188

Open millerta opened 4 years ago

millerta commented 4 years ago

Something is wrong in usage of crank where vector rank = 3 and the loop through attributes.

For now there is an error message and exit: ERROR dumpavs: vector output not supported!!!
convert vector to scalars with cmo/addatt
ERROR dumpavs: No Action

NOTE: Writing a vector for AVS attributes, there is only 1 attribute not 3 (irank) Internally lagrit has an array 3x nnodes (or elements) Write AVS format for vector should look something like: Header: nnodes nelements 3 0 0 Data: 1 3 vector_name, real 1 varray(1,1) varray(2,1) varray(3,1) 2 varray(1,2) varray(2,2) varray(3,2)

# test vector attribute for dump/avs
# bug where vector output not handled correctly
# and the array values get corrupted
# dump gmv does not corrupt but writes scalar, not vector
# create vector and printatt vector are correct

dump/avs has been removed in the test directory where this bug was discovered level01/cmo_addatt_normals The file being written had incorrect values for attribute irank=3 output_box_normals.inp
