`getValues` with `allowSens=True` does not work without specifying `names`.
Description
History.getValues() does not work when we call it with allowSens=True and default values for the other inputs.
To make it work, users have to specify appropriate callCounters and names.
The docstrings say it is up to the user to ensure that the callCounters specified contain the information requested, so this behavior is expected, but not very user-friendly.
Steps to reproduce issue
- Run one of the test problems.
- Read the history file and call
hist.getValues(allowSense=True).
Current behavior
It tries to parse obj/con/funcs from the sensitivity evaluation, even though we don't have that info. Then it fails with KeyError.
Expected behavior
It should raise a pyOptSparse Warning or Error when allowSens=True and the (default or user-specified) callCounters and names are not valid.
It'd be better if we can overwrite callCounters and names internally.
