List of all members.

Public Member Functions

 Diagnostic ()
 Default constructor.
virtual ~Diagnostic ()
 Destructor.
virtual std::string GetClassName () const
 Returns the name of the class, here "Diagnostic".
virtual void Init ()
- Public Member Functions inherited from Task
 Task ()
 Default constructor sets the running number nNr of the Task.
virtual ~Task ()
 When destructing a Task is has to be detatched from the parents Task list.
int GetStep () const
 Return the interval between execution in timesteps.
int GetEnd () const
 Return the timestep when the Task ends execution.
bool DoNow ()
 Returns true if the Task is to be executed now.
std::string GetName () const
 Returns the name given to the Task object.
virtual bool IsInteractive () const
 If not specified otherwise, a Task is not interactive.
void AttachTask (Task *pTask)
 Insert Task into Task list and registers it with the Process.
void DetachTask (Task *pTask)
 DetachTask from Task list.
virtual bool Execute ()
 Executes the Task. This is the place where the algorithm for executing a Task it placed. The return value specifies, if the task is finished and can be removed. The basic Execute method executes all its sub-Tasks. The derived classes should call this member function, whenever there are subtasks to be executed.
virtual std::string Rebuild (std::istream &in)
 Rebuilds the task from the setup. This normally does not need to be overwritten. Rebuild always returns the next token that does not belong to the object setup.
virtual void DumpTaskList (std::ostream &o, int nDepth=0)
 Recursively dumps the complete Task list into a stream.

Protected Member Functions

virtual PARAMETERMAP * MakeParamMap (PARAMETERMAP *pm=NULL)
 Register the parameters needed for the Task. A derived class should overwrite this whenever it needs additional parameters from the setup file. It should then ALWAYS call the MakeParamMap of its superclass.
- Protected Member Functions inherited from Task
void AddPredecessor (const std::string &strPred)
 Add the name of a predecessor that has to be executed before this Task.

Protected Attributes

SimulationSim
 A pointer to the overall simulation object.
DiagPortDP
- Protected Attributes inherited from Task
int nNr
 The running number of this Task.
std::string strName
 The name of this Task.
TaskpParent
 The parent Task to which this Task belongs.
ProcesspProcess
 The Process to which this Task belongs.
std::string strNorm
 The name of the referenced Normalization object.
NormalizationNorm
 The pointer to the referenced Normalization object.
TASKLIST plTasks
 A list of sub-Tasks.
int nStart
int nEnd
int nStep

Detailed Description

This is the base class for any diagnostic task inside another Task. It doesn't do much but allows the user to specify a DiagPort object by it's name in the setup file.

Parameters:
portThe name of the DiagPort to which output should be directed.

Member Function Documentation

void Diagnostic::Init ( )
virtual

Initialization sets the Sim pointer from the pProcess member which is part of every Task object.

Todo:
Create a safe typecast.

Reimplemented from Task.

Reimplemented in DiagGridLine< TYPE >, DiagGrid< TYPE >, PhaseSpace, and Trajectory.
