Newbie question:
There is a very useful option for reading non uniform values from CSV files with dataentry/function1, but I would like to define this way 5 variables for my BC, so someone could just define every variable in the U dict as:
<entryName> csvFile;
<entryName>Coeffs
{
nHeaderLine 4;
refColumn 0; // reference column index
componentColumns (1); // component column indices
separator ","; // optional (defaults to ",")
mergeSeparators no; // merge multiple separators
fileName "fileXYZ"; // name of csv data file
outOfBounds clamp; // optional out-of-bounds handling
interpolationScheme linear; // optional interpolation scheme
}
but it's kind of redundant define all this for the 5 variables changing only componentColumns, it would be more confortable calling it only once, but that is not possible for arbitrary number of variables, actually I only can call scalars, vectors and tensors, so I was thinking in call it directly from the BC code, is that possible?
insted writing

h_(function1<scalar>::New("h", dict))
put directly in the code
h_(function1<scalar>::New("h",


{
h csvFile;
hCoeffs
{
nHeaderLine 4;
refColumn 0;
componentColumns dict.lookup("valuesColumns")[0];
separator ",";
mergeSeparators no;
fileName dict.lookup("dataFileName"),;
outOfBounds clamp;
interpolationScheme linear;
}
}

)


I know that drafting doesn't actually works, but how can I define this dict in the code so this could work? or is it possible to redefine 1 member of the dict when I call it?
Any other suggestions for not calling 5 times the same file changing only the componentColumns?
