Summary0002455: singleGraph with csv and axis=xyz produce some trash in ouput file
DescriptionRunning functionObject singleGraph with csv-format and axis=xyz produce some trash in the header of the output csv-file (like this:
x,y,z,^@,^@,^@,^@,^@,0,^@,^@,^@,^@,^@,^@,^@,!,^@,^@,^@,^@,^@,^@,^@,.,^@,^@,^@,^@,^@,^@,^@,.,.,.,^@,^@,^@,^@,U_0,U_1,U_2 -- copied from mcedit)
Steps To ReproduceIn tutorial tutorials/incompressible/pimpleFoam/laminar/planarPoiseuille
change system/singleGraph as follows:
setFormat csv;
setConfig
{
    type midPoint; // midPoint
    axis xyz; // x, y, z, xyz
}
Run tutorial. There is some kind of trash in postProcessing/singleGraph/'time'/line_U.csv.
TagsNo tags attached.

Yes, I can confirm this bug. I think the reason for this bug is due to flawed logic in csvSetWriter.C in function writeCoordHeader. With xyz, the condition points.hasVectorAxis() is true. The code then enters in a loop, which goes through all the points in the set, but the index is used to access the points.axis(), which returns the word "xyz". Thus, the first three items will be x,y,z, and the rest are read beyond the buffer and garbage.

I have uploaded a minimal fix, where the looping is done over points.axis().

Do you get a lot of compiler warnings from this change?

I get

sampledSetWriters/csv/csvSetWriter.C: In instantiation of ‘void
Foam::csvSetWriter<Type>::writeCoordHeader(const Foam::coordSet&, Foam::Ostream&) const [with Type = double]’:
sampledSetWriters/csv/csvSetWriter.C:137:9: required from here
/home/dm2/henry/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-dev/src/OpenFOAM/lnInclude/UList.H:430:28: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Wsign-compare]
     for (Foam::label i=0; i<(list).size(); i++)
                             
sampledSetWriters/csv/csvSetWriter.C:188:9: note: in expansion of macro ‘forAll’
         forAll(points.axis(), i)

The problem is that points.axis() returns a word (which should be cached) for which forAll is not really appropriate.
