DirectAccessNoHolesF90.F90

Use direct access to MOAB data to avoid calling through API, in Fortran90
This example creates a 1d row of quad elements, such that all quad and vertex handles are contiguous in the handle space and in the database. Then it shows how to get access to pointers to MOAB-native data for vertex coordinates, quad connectivity, and tag storage (vertex to quad adjacency lists aren't accessible from Fortran because they are std::vector's). This allows applications to access this data directly without going through MOAB's API. In cases where the mesh is not changing (or only mesh vertices are moving), this can save significant execution time in applications.

Using direct access (or MOAB in general) from Fortran is complicated in two specific ways: 1) There is no way to use arrays with specified dimension starting/ending values with ISO_C_BINDING; therefore, all arrays passed back from MOAB/iMesh must use 1-based indices; this makes it a bit more difficult to traverse the direct arrays. In this example, I explicitly use indices that look like my_array(1+v_ind...) to remind users of this. 2) Arithmetic on handles is complicated by the fact that Fortran has no unsigned integer type. I get around this by assigning to a C-typed variable first, before the handle arithmetic. This seems to work fine. C-typed variables are part of the Fortran95 standard.

1. Initialize MOAB
   
2. Create a quad mesh, as depicted above
3. Create 2 dense tags (tag1, tag2) for avg position to assign to quads, and # verts per quad (tag3)
4. Get connectivity, coordinate, tag1 iterators
5. Iterate through quads, computing midpoint based on vertex positions, set on quad-based tag1
6. Iterate through vertices, summing positions into tag2 on connected quads and incrementing vertex count
7. Iterate through quads, normalizing tag2 by vertex count and comparing values of tag1 and tag2

To compile:
make DirectAccessNoHolesF90
To run: ./DirectAccessNoHolesF90 [-nquads <# quads>]
