Was fixed last year, but it seems we somehow overrode it at some point

I like this! It will probably help users that get confused at the mesh generation step.
How could I trigger this case, to test it?
adapter/PreciceInterface.c
Outdated

I am wondering a bit about the action call: should the user change something in the adapter config file, or in the mesh itself? Maybe refering to the documentation would help.

Actually the original sentence is a bit misleading, as the problem is not providing the mesh, it's configuring correctly the YAML file. Given a mesh, either we configure the adapter to build a preCICE mesh from the nodes, or from the face centers. We can do both by configuring two interfaces in the YAML file (and creating two different preCICE meshes)
A different formulation would probably be more suited. Something like "This interface was configured to use nodes/faces, but it must be configured to use faces/nodes to transfer data Y". I'm open to suggestions.
To trigger the error, simply take any valid CalculiX test case and, in the config.yaml
file, replace faces-mesh
by nodes-mesh
or vice-versa. (mesh
seems to be an alias for faces-mesh
and there's another one for connectivity, see #87).
I first noticed this because it is actually impossible to do CHT with Dirichlet-Neumann coupling on the same mesh, since one requires nodes and the other one requires faces.

I like your suggestion, let's go with that! 👍 Maybe even include some information about which "this interface" is?

Current code contains a message to warn the user when he doesn't provide a nodal mesh (i.e. a face mesh is sent instead) despite being required. But the opposite wasn't true: if you send a nodal mesh when a face mesh is required, you get a very unhelpful "array out of bounds" crash, which was a pain to debug.
I thus added this error message. I also made them (both missing nodal and missing face mesh) slightly more explicit. Roughly speaking, instead of "You don't provide X", it is replaced by "you don't provide X, which is needed for using Y", with Y the cause of the error. (For instance if you try to read displacements on a face mesh, or heat flux on a nodal mesh).
Examples:
Writing a heat flux on a nodes mesh crashed without reason, now it says
Face centers mesh not provided in YAML config file. They are required for writing/reading the data Heat Flux.
Reading a temperature on a face centers mesh used to give the message
Nodes mesh not provided in YAML config file
but now it givesNodes mesh not provided in YAML config file. They are required for writing/reading the data Temperature.
.(I also fixed a typo where "Velocit" is used instead of "Velocity". This was fixed a while ago by @IshaanDesai but it seems we overrode it at some point when merging everything)
