Description

This quick PR switches the XDGMesh over to using num_volume_element_faces() (a new API in XDG) for counting surface bins in a volumetric mesh.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • XDG mesh initialization now uses the surface-bin count reported by the mesh manager, keeping bin totals consistent with the mesh data.
    • Initialization no longer stops with an unsupported-element error from the previous local counting process.

Walkthrough

XDGMesh::initialize now gets the surface-bin count from the XDG mesh manager. It removes manual counts for tetrahedra and hexahedra, along with the fatal error for unsupported element types.

Changes: XDG surface-bin count

Layer / File(s) Summary
Use manager face count
src/xdg.cpp
XDGMesh::initialize uses the mesh manager’s face count and removes element-specific counting and the unsupported-element error.

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to 8c6ee

Existing XDG-enabled builds may fail until XDG is updated. Preserve compatibility or establish and check the required XDG revision before merging.

Preserve builds with existing XDG installations.

XDG commit 83efb30 lacks this method, so an existing XDG-enabled build fails to compile. Both that commit and the commit adding the method report version 0.14.1, so a version check alone cannot distinguish them. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Keep the previous counting fallback or add a CMake feature check and document the required XDG revision.

Simple enough! Thanks for adding these methods into XDG itself as well @nuclearkevin.
