Figure 1. C++ MOLE 2.0 implementation. Bolded subdirectories names are the ones impacted by this PR and related Git issues.
This PR implements first steps of CPP MOLE 2.0 implementation:

Adopt new CPP software organization into the directory structure in Figure 1 (below)
Implement MOLE Errors handling and reporting system.
Implement C++ regression tests for the MOLE Errors module and use examples for documentation
Implement MOLE Grid classes and related data structures
Implement C++ regression tests for the MOLE Grid classes + Error handling/tracking, and basic examples for documentation

Related Issues & Documents

Issues, #437 (cpp directory reorganization) , #438 (error handling), #440 (cpp grid implementation)

I have created an Issue that is paired with this PR
Closes MOLE v2.0.0 Development: Adopt new CPP software organization into the directory structure #437
Closes Add C++ implementations of the MOLE Error Handling and the MOLE Grid data structures and core functionalities #438
Closes Add debugging API for the MOLE Grid 2.0 implementations #440

QA Instructions, Screenshots, Recordings

Tests and examples for creating grid are included. There are several tests of the full CPP functionality included here.

To build:

cd mole/cpp (notice that while we are moving from MOLE 1.2 to MOLE 2.0, the new CPP development is organized using the directory structure shown above). Thus, to build the C++, start from the subdirectory mole/cpp
mkdir build; cd build create a new subdirectory build and enter that new subdirectory
cmake .. will prepare to build the MOLE cpp library and include all software dependencies
make will manually build the MOLE library, examples and tests
cd examples/grids to run different examples of grid creation, or
cd tests to run any of the different tests of the library (>120 tests of the current C++ MOLE API)

Keep-open request

I am requesting maintainer review for keep-open.

Reason:

Added/updated tests?

_We encourage you to test all code included with MOLE, including examples.

Yes
No, and this is why: please replace this line with details on why tests
have not been included
I need help with writing tests

…_0_grid_implementation

Parses variadic <attribute, value> pairs into a gridRaw, validates dimensionality, cell counts, topology and isPeriodic length at parse time, then narrows into gridParams1D/2D/3D and calls makeGrid. Failures return a gridNull carrying the error stack. isPeriodic takes a pointer to a vector<bool> so its size can be checked against dim.

29 cases covering parse-time validation through runChecks and dimension dispatch through the gridBuilder macro, including isPeriodic size mismatches and out-of-order attributes.

Four examples covering 1D construction, 2D with periodicity, argument order independence, and parse-time error reporting.
