Scalar, Vector

Synopsis

Set a field's type to be scalar or 3-element vector

group Scalar {                  /* scalar data */
     int nnode_data = 1;
     group node_data {
                       int veclen = 1;
     };
};

group Vector {                  /* 3-vector data */
     int nnode_data = 1;
     group node_data {
           int veclen = 3;
     };
};

Description

These field subtypes automatically set the Node_Data values to be appropriate for either scalar, or 3-vector data.

For example, saying:

Field_Struct+Vector

establishes the field as irregular with a 3-element vector of data in one Node_Data component.
