Detailed Description

A Rectangular Domain on an Integer Lattice.

A Box is an abstraction for defining discrete rectangular regions of SpaceDim-dimensioned indexing space. Boxes have an IndexType, which defines IndexType::CELL or IndexType::NODE based points for each direction and a low and high IntVect which defines the lower and upper corners of the Box. Boxes can exist in positive and negative indexing space.

Box is a dimension dependent class, so SpaceDim must be defined as either 1, 2, or 3 when compiling.

Chops the Box at the chop in the dir direction returns one Box, modifies the object Box. The union of the two is the original Box. The modified Box is the low end, the returned Box is the high end. If type(dir) = CELL, the Boxes are disjoint with the chop included in the high end (new Box). It is an ERROR if chop is the low end of the orig Box. If type(dir) = NODE, the chop is included in both Boxes but is the only point in common. It is also an error if the chop is an end node of the Box. Directions are zero-based. It is an error if not 0 <= dir < SpaceDim.

NOTE: if type(dir) = NODE centered: lo <- lo*ratio and hi <- hi*ratio.

Box refine ( const Box & b,

int refinement_ratio

) [friend]

Returns a Box that is the argument Box refined by given (positive) refinement ratio. The Empty Box is not modified by this function. \
NOTE: if type(dir) = CELL centered: lo <- lo*ratio and hi <- (hi+1)*ratio - 1.\
NOTE: if type(dir) = NODE centered: lo <- lo*ratio and hi <- hi*ratio.

Box surroundingNodes ( const Box & b ) [friend]

Returns a Box with NODE based coordinates in all directions that encloses argument Box. The upper corner of the return Box will be one more in all components than the upper corner of the argument Box. The Empty Box is not modified by this function except for changing of type.

Box surroundingNodes ( const Box & b,

int dir

) [friend]

Returns a Box with NODE based coordinates in direction dir that encloses the argument Box. NOTE: equivalent to b.convert(dir,NODE). NOTE: error if b.type(dir) == NODE. Directions are zero-based. It is an error if not 0 <= dir < SpaceDim. The Empty Box is not modified by this function except for changing of type.
