Constructor & Destructor Documentation
sc::ShmMessageGrp::ShmMessageGrp(constRef<KeyVal>&)
The ShmMessageGrpKeyVal constructor takes a single keyword that specifies the number of processors. Here
is an example of a ParsedKeyVal input that creates a ShmMessageGrp that runs on four processors:
message<ShmMessageGrp>: n = 4
Detailed Description
The ShmMessageGrp class is an implementation of MessageGrp that allows multiple process to be started
that communicate with shared memory.
This only provides improved performance if you have multiple CPU's in a symmetric multiprocessor
configuration. Nonetheless, it is quite useful on a single CPU for tracking down bugs.
Name
sc::ShmMessageGrp - The ShmMessageGrp class is an implementation of MessageGrp that allows multiple
process to be started that communicate with shared memory.
Synopsis
#include <messshm.h>
Inherits sc::intMessageGrp.
PublicMemberFunctionsShmMessageGrp ()
Reads the number of processors from environmental variable NUMPROC.
ShmMessageGrp (const Ref< KeyVal > &)
The ShmMessageGrpKeyVal constructor takes a single keyword that specifies the number of processors.
ShmMessageGrp (int nprocs)
Initialize ShmMessageGrp to use nprocs processors.
void sync ()
Synchronize all of the processors.
Ref< MessageGrp > clone (void)
Returns a copy of this MessageGrp specialization that provides an independent communication context.
