Detailed Description

Class for logging and timing.

Date:

2001/10/11 13:37:59

Revision:

1.6

This class is wrapper around MPE event logging functions (available from Argonne National Lab/Missippi State University). It allows users to create events with names and log them. Different log file formats can be generated by changing MPE's configuration. Some of these formats are binary (for examples SLOG and CLOG) and can be analyzed with viewers from ANL. ALOG is particularly useful since it is text based and can be processed with simple scripts.

Member Function Documentation

virtual const char* vtkMPIEventLog::GetClassName (    )  [virtual]

Return the class name as a string. This method is defined in all subclasses of vtkObject with the vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h. Reimplemented from vtkObject.

int vtkMPIEventLog::IsTypeOf (  const char *    type )  [static]

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h. Reimplemented from vtkObject.

virtual int vtkMPIEventLog::IsA (  const char *    type )  [virtual]

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h. Reimplemented from vtkObject.

vtkMPIEventLog* vtkMPIEventLog::SafeDownCast (  vtkObject *    o )  [static]

Will cast the supplied object to vtkObject* is this is a safe operation (i.e., a safe downcast); otherwise NULL is returned. This method is defined in all subclasses of vtkObject with the vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h. Reimplemented from vtkObject.

vtkMPIEventLog* vtkMPIEventLog::New (    )  [static]

Construct a vtkMPIEventLog with the following initial state: Processes = 0, MaximumNumberOfProcesses = 0. Reimplemented from vtkObject.

int vtkMPIEventLog::SetDescription (  const char *    name, const char *    desc )

Used to initialize the underlying mpe event. HAS TO BE CALLED BY ALL PROCESSES before any event logging is done. It takes a name and a description for the graphical representation, for example, "red:vlines3". See mpe documentation for details. Returns 0 on MPI failure (or aborts depending on MPI error handlers)

void vtkMPIEventLog::InitializeLogging (    )  [static]

These methods have to be called once on all processors before and after invoking any logging events. The name of the logfile is given by fileName. See mpe documentation for file formats.

void vtkMPIEventLog::FinalizeLogging (  const char *    fileName )  [static]

These methods have to be called once on all processors before and after invoking any logging events. The name of the logfile is given by fileName. See mpe documentation for file formats.

void vtkMPIEventLog::StartLogging (    )

Issue start and stop events for this log entry.

void vtkMPIEventLog::StopLogging (    )

Issue start and stop events for this log entry.

virtual void vtkMPIEventLog::PrintSelf (  ostream &    os, vtkIndent    indent )  [virtual]

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes. Reimplemented from vtkObject.
