Summary0004038: Changes of DebugSwitches during runtime has no effect
DescriptionUp to OpenFOAM-8 it was possible to change DebugSwitches during runtime. Starting with OpenFOAM-9, this seems not possible anymore.
Steps To ReproduceAdd the following to the controlDict of e.g. the coolingSphere tutorial:

DebugSwitches
{
    fvSchemes 2;
    solution 2;
    SolverPerformance 2;
}

Then during runtime change the values to 0. Or vice versa: Before the start set them to 0 and during the runtime set them to 2.

Up to, including OpenFOAM-8 this resulted in changing the output of the solver after controlDict had been re-read. Starting with OpenFOAM-9 a change during runtime has no effect. Only after a restart of the solver, the changed settings are applied.
TagsNo tags attached.

Correct, the code to support this functionality needs to be rewritten requiring further maintenance funding. If you need this functionality please contact us directly to discuss the funding requirement.
