Control GeomQueryTool screen output about dagmc

[gonuke]

We can introduce a convention of this kind of output and a mechanism for users to influence it. We can pass that through to MOAB for the first two lines.

Staring at this a little bit more after our call this morning. @gonuke would it be sufficient to add a verbose flag to the GeomQueryTool and GeomTopoTool classes in MOAB? We could then include a method in DAGMC to set the verbosity the classes it depends upon (as well as the verbosity of the DagMC class itself).

[gonuke]

I think all the pieces are in place for the next release of MOAB. We will still need to add a line in the DagMC constructor to pass along the verbosity.

I thought we had one at some point? maybe I'm mis-remembering?

[pshriwise]

Not seeing anything of that nature in the source code 😞 Shame on us...

I think that would do it, but is still fairly intrusive. We also would have to act on that flag in DAGMC.

[pshriwise]

Agreed, we'd have to act on that flag in DAGMC. And while some changes will be required in MOAB, there's a separate question of how we want to handle verbosity in the DagMC class. Here are the aforementioned lines annotated with which project they come from:

Output Line	Class
"Set overlap thickness = 0"	MOAB::GeomQueryTool
"Set numerical precision = 0.001"	MOAB::GeomQueryTool
"Initializing the GeomQueryTool..."	DagMC
"Using faceting tolerance: 0.0001"	DagMC
"Building acceleration data structures..."	DagMC
"Implicit Complement assumed to be Vacuum"	dagmcMetaData

So, as a first step, I think we can decide how we want to handle the output lines coming from DAGMC.

Are we ready to proceed with the latest MOAB version now that we have fixed the Implicit Complement Position in DAGMC through PR #935?

[gonuke]

I think it's worth a PR to see how it all works...

[ahnaf-tahmid-chowdhury]

MOAB is set to the latest version 5.5.1 now through #940

[gonuke]

This should now be resolved
