From 41e09b2c92af4809e94cabe1690495abb44699e1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jukka Aho Date: Sun, 9 Nov 2025 18:08:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] feat(compat): Add compatibility shim for old mutable field API MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Implements compatibility layer to allow old test code to run with new immutable element design (though fields won't actually update). src/elements/elements.jl: - Replaced has_dfield/get_dfield to work with new fields API - Fixed get_sfield/get_dfield to handle empty Tuple{} fields - All dfield functions now map to element.fields (immutable NamedTuple) src/topology/*.jl (seg2, tri3, quad4, tet4, hex8): - Added nnodes() implementation for each topology type - Returns corner node count (backwards compatibility) - Example: nnodes(::Triangle) = 3, nnodes(::Hexahedron) = 8 - Note: Actual node count depends on basis degree in new architecture Test Results: - test_topology_standalone.jl: 36/36 tests passing ✓ - Full test suite: 43 errors (same as before) - Error breakdown: * 40+ tests: Problem types not defined (Elasticity, Heat, Mortar) * 2 tests: Mesh readers not defined (aster_read_mesh) * 1 test: Tries to mutate empty element (test_elasticity_1d) Next Steps: - Tests that create empty elements then mutate need rewriting - Pattern: Element(Seg2, (1,2)) + update!() → not compatible - New pattern: Element(..., fields=(geometry=X, displacement=u)) - See docs/design/IMMUTABILITY.md for migration guide --- docs/design/IMMUTABILITY.md | 12 ++-- src/elements/elements.jl | 125 +++++++++++++++++++++++++----------- src/topology/hex8.jl | 10 +++ src/topology/quad4.jl | 10 +++ src/topology/seg2.jl | 10 +++ src/topology/tet4.jl | 10 +++ src/topology/tri3.jl | 10 +++ 7 files changed, 145 insertions(+), 42 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/design/IMMUTABILITY.md b/docs/design/IMMUTABILITY.md index 20c5c36..67c01b6 100644 --- a/docs/design/IMMUTABILITY.md +++ b/docs/design/IMMUTABILITY.md @@ -11,6 +11,7 @@ JuliaFEM 1.0 adopts **immutable elements with type-stable fields** as a core architectural decision.
