Detailed Description

The MessageGrp abstract class provides a mechanism for moving data and objects between nodes in a parallel machine.

Member Function Documentation

  void sc::MessageGrp::initialize (int me, int n) [protected]

The classdesc_to_index_ and index_to_classdesc_ arrays cannot be initialized by the MessageGrp CTOR, because the MessageGrp specialization has not yet been initialized and communication is not available.

CTOR's of specializations of MessageGrp must call the initialize member in their body to complete the initialization process.

  virtual Ref<MessageGrp> sc::MessageGrp::clone (void) [pure virtual]

Returns a copy of this MessageGrp specialization that provides an independent communication context.

Implemented in sc::ProcMessageGrp, sc::MPIMessageGrp, and sc::ShmMessageGrp.

  static void sc::MessageGrp::set_default_messagegrp (const Ref< MessageGrp > &) [static]

The default message group contains the primary message group to be used by an application.

  static MessageGrp* sc::MessageGrp::initial_messagegrp (int & argc, char **& argv) [static]

Create a message group.

This routine looks for a -messagegrp argument, then the environmental variable MESSAGEGRP to decide which specialization of MessageGrp would be appropriate. The argument to -messagegrp should be either string for a ParsedKeyVal constructor or a classname. If this returns null, it is up to the programmer to create a MessageGrp.

  virtual void sc::MessageGrp::send (int target, const double * data, int ndata) [virtual]

Send messages sequentially to the target processor.

Similar members exist for each of the basic types.

  virtual void sc::MessageGrp::sendt (int target, int type, const double * data, int ndata) [virtual]

Send typed messages to the target processor.

  virtual void sc::MessageGrp::recv (int sender, double * data, int ndata) [virtual]

Receive messages sent sequentually from the sender.

Similar members exist for each of the basic types.

  virtual void sc::MessageGrp::recvt (int type, double * data, int ndata) [virtual]

Receive messages sent by type.

Similar members exist for each of the basic types.

  virtual void sc::MessageGrp::bcast (double * data, int ndata, int from = 0) [virtual]

Do broadcasts of various types of data.

Similar members exist for each of the basic types.

  virtual void sc::MessageGrp::raw_collect (const void * part, const int * lengths, void * whole, int bytes_per_datum = 1) [virtual]

Collect data distributed on the nodes to a big array replicated on each node.

  virtual void sc::MessageGrp::sum (double * data, int n, double * = 0, int target = -1) [virtual]

Global sum reduction.

Similar members exist for each of the basic types.

Reimplemented in sc::MPIMessageGrp.

  virtual void sc::MessageGrp::max (double * data, int n, double * = 0, int target = -1) [virtual]

Global maximization.

Similar members exist for each of the basic types.

  virtual void sc::MessageGrp::min (double * data, int n, double * = 0, int target = -1) [virtual]

Global minimization.

Similar members exist for each of the basic types.

  virtual void sc::MessageGrp::reduce (double *, int n, GrpReduce< double > &, double * scratch = 0, int target = -1) [virtual]

Global generic reduction.

Similar members exist for each of the basic types.

Reimplemented in sc::MPIMessageGrp.

  int sc::MessageGrp::classdesc_to_index (const ClassDesc *)

Each message group maintains an association of ClassDesc with a global index so SavableState information can be sent between nodes without needing to send the classname and look up the ClassDesc with each transfer.

These routines return information about that mapping.
