Class
    Foam::functionObjects::systemCall

Description
    Executes system calls, entered in the form of a string lists.

    Calls can be made at the following points in the calculation:
    - every time step
    - every output time
    - end of the calculation

    Example of function object specification:
    \verbatim
    systemCall1
    {
        type            systemCall;

        libs            ("libutilityFunctionObjects.so");

        executeCalls
        (
            "echo execute"
        );

        writeCalls
        (
            "echo \*\*\* writing data \*\*\*"
        );

        endCalls
        (
            "echo \*\*\* writing .bashrc \*\*\*"
            "cat ~/.bashrc"
            "echo \*\*\* done \*\*\*"
        );
    }
    \endverbatim

Usage
    \table
        Property     | Description               | Required   | Default value
        type         | type name: systemCall     | yes        |
        parallel     | execute on all processors | no         | false
        executeCalls | list of calls on execute  | yes        |
        writeCalls   | list of calls on write    | yes        |
        endCalls     | list of calls on end      | yes        |
    \endtable

Note
    Since this function object executes system calls, there is a potential
    security risk.  In order to use the \c systemCall function object, the \c
    allowSystemOperations must be set to '1'; otherwise, system calls will not
    be allowed.
