document out_vars string options for IO thorns provided by IOUtil
Issue #2500
new
The IO thorns typically support setting some options on a per variable basis using option string embedded into their out_vars
parameters, eg (from https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/einsteinexamples/raw/master/par/GW150914/GW150914.rpar):
IOHDF5::out_vars = "
Grid::Coordinates{out_every=1000000000 refinement_levels={0}}
which override the values given in parameters.
These are all handled by IOUtil in its SetOutputVar
routine https://bitbucket.org/cactuscode/cactusbase/src/80544e08d406424e8bd1e21e5574218bd7239843/IOUtil/src/Utils.c#lines-742 which contains one Util_TableQueryValueInfo
per option.
IOUtil
should document these options (or all the IO thorns should and they should at least document which options they support, eg only the Scalar
and Basic
like IO thorns will support the reductions
option.).
