#include <vtkMultiProcessController.h>
Inheritance diagram for vtkMultiProcessController:


vtkMultiProcessController is used to control multiple processes in a distributed computing environment. It has methods for executing single/multiple method(s) on multiple processors, triggering registered callbacks (Remote Methods) (AddRMI(), TriggerRMI()) and communication. Please note that the communication is done using the communicator which is accessible to the user. Therefore it is possible to get the communicator with GetCommunicator() and use it to send and receive data. This is the encoured communication method. The internal (RMI) communications are done using a second internal communicator (called RMICommunicator).

Implemented in vtkDummyController, vtkMPIController, and vtkSocketController.
| void vtkMultiProcessController::SetNumberOfProcesses | ( | int | num | ) |
Set the number of processes you will be using. This defaults to the maximum number available. If you set this to a value higher than the default, you will get an error.
| int vtkMultiProcessController::GetNumberOfProcesses | ( | ) |
Set the number of processes you will be using. This defaults to the maximum number available. If you set this to a value higher than the default, you will get an error.

Set the SingleMethod to f() and the UserData of the for the method to be executed by all of the processes when SingleMethodExecute is called. All the processes will start by calling this function.
| virtual void vtkMultiProcessController::SingleMethodExecute | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Execute the SingleMethod (as define by SetSingleMethod) using this->NumberOfProcesses processes. This will only return when all the processes finish executing their methods.
Implemented in vtkDummyController, vtkMPIController, and vtkSocketController.
| void vtkMultiProcessController::SetMultipleMethod | ( | int | index, | |

| void * | data | |||

Set the MultipleMethod to f() and the UserData of the for the method to be executed by the process index when MultipleMethodExecute is called. This is for having each process start with a different function and data argument.
| virtual void vtkMultiProcessController::MultipleMethodExecute | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Execute the MultipleMethods (as define by calling SetMultipleMethod for each of the required this->NumberOfProcesses methods) using this->NumberOfProcesses processes.
Implemented in vtkDummyController, vtkMPIController, and vtkSocketController.
| int vtkMultiProcessController::GetLocalProcessId | ( | ) |
Tells you which process [0, NumProcess) you are in.
Reimplemented in vtkDummyController.
| static vtkMultiProcessController* vtkMultiProcessController::GetGlobalController | ( | ) | [static] |
This convenience method returns the controller associated with the local process. It returns NULL until the processes are spawned. It is better if you hang on to the controller passed as an argument to the SingleMethod or MultipleMethod functions.
| virtual void vtkMultiProcessController::CreateOutputWindow | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
This method can be used to tell the controller to create a special output window in which all messages are preceded by the process id.
Implemented in vtkDummyController, vtkMPIController, and vtkSocketController.
| virtual vtkMultiProcessController* vtkMultiProcessController::CreateSubController | ( | vtkProcessGroup * | group | ) | [virtual] |
Creates a new controller with the processes specified by the given group. The new controller will already be initialized for you. You are responsible for deleting the controller once you are done. It is invalid to pass this method a group with a different communicator than is used by this controller. This operation is collective accross all processes defined in the group. It is undefined what will happen if the group is not the same on all processes. This method must be called by all processes in the controller regardless of whether they are in the group. NULL is returned on all process not in the group.
Reimplemented in vtkMPIController.
| unsigned long vtkMultiProcessController::AddRMI | ( | vtkRMIFunctionType | , | |
| void * | localArg, | |||
| int | tag | |||
| ) |
Register remote method invocation in the receiving process which makes the call. It must have a unique tag as an RMI id. The vtkRMIFunctionType has several arguments: localArg (same as passed in), remoteArg, remoteArgLength (memory passed by process triggering the RMI), remoteProcessId. Since only one callback can be registered per tag, this method will remove any previously registered callback for the given tag. Returns a unique Id for the RMI registration which can be used to unregister the callback. RemoveRMI() should be preferred over RemoveFirstRMI() since it avoid accidental removal of callbacks.
| int vtkMultiProcessController::RemoveFirstRMI | ( | int | tag | ) |
Remove the first RMI matching the tag.
| int vtkMultiProcessController::RemoveRMI | ( | unsigned long | id | ) |
Remove the RMI matching the id. The id is the same id returned by AddRMI().
| void vtkMultiProcessController::RemoveRMI | ( | vtkRMIFunctionType | f, | |

| void vtkMultiProcessController::TriggerRMIOnAllChildren | ( | void * | arg, | |
| int | argLength, | |||

This is a convenicence method to trigger an RMI call on all the "children" of the current node. The children of the current node can be determined by drawing a binary tree starting at node 0 and then assigned nodes ids incrementally in a breadth-first fashion from left to right. This is designed to be used when trigger an RMI call on all satellites from the root node.

| int vtkMultiProcessController::ProcessRMIs | ( | int | reportErrors, | |

Calling this method gives control to the controller to start processing RMIs. Possible return values are: RMI_NO_ERROR, RMI_TAG_ERROR : rmi tag could not be received, RMI_ARG_ERROR : rmi arg could not be received. If reportErrors is false, no vtkErrorMacro is called. ProcessRMIs() calls ProcessRMIs(int) with reportErrors = 0. If dont_loop is 1, this call just process one RMI message and exits.

Setting this flag to 1 will cause the ProcessRMIs loop to return. This also causes vtkUpStreamPorts to return from their WaitForUpdate loops.
