The method you're looking for is "set_boundary":
void fields::set_boundary(boundary_side b, direction d,boundary_condition){
if (boundaries[b][d] != cond) {
boundaries[b][d] = cond;
chunk_connections_valid = false;
}
}
You can invoke it like this:
f.set_boundary(High, X, Metallic);
Side can be High or Low,
Direction X,Y,Z,R, or P,
Boundary condition Periodic, Metallic, or Magnetic
The most efficient way to define a waveguide is with metallic boundary
conditions, which let you trim the computation domain down to a minimum.
