This class is the interface to the functions in the DataOutBase namespace, as already its name might suggest. It does not offer much functionality apart from a way to access the implemented formats and a way to dynamically dispatch what output format to chose.
This class is thought as a base class to classes actually generating data for output. It has two abstract virtual functions, get_patches() and get_dataset_names() produce the data which is actually needed. These are the only functions that need to be overloaded by a derived class. In additional to that, it has a function for each output format supported by the underlying base class which gets the output data using these two virtual functions and passes them to the raw output functions.
The purpose of this class is mainly two-fold: to support storing flags by which the output in the different output formats are controlled, and means to work with output in a way where output format, flags and other things are determined at run time. In addition to that it offers the abstract interface to derived classes briefly discussed above.
The way we treat flags in this class is very similar to that used in the GridOut
class. For detailed information on the why's and how's, as well as an example of programming, we refer to the documentation of that class.
Basically, this class stores a set of flags for each output format supported by the underlying DataOutBase
class. These are used whenever one of the write_*
functions is used. By default, the values of these flags are set to reasonable start-ups, but in case you want to change them, you can create a structure holding the flags for one of the output formats and set it using the set_flags
functions of this class to determine all future output the object might produce by that output format.
For information on what parameters are supported by different output functions, please see the documentation of the DataOutBase
class and its member classes.
In the output flags classes, described above, many flags are defined for output in the different formats. In order to make them available to the input file handler class ParameterHandler
, each of these has a function declaring these flags to the parameter handler and to read them back from an actual input file. In order to avoid that in user programs these functions have to be called for each available output format and the respective flag class, the present DataOutInterface
class offers a function declare_parameters
which calls the respective function of all known output format flags classes. The flags of each such format are packed together in a subsection in the input file. Likewise, there is a function parse_parameters
which reads these parameters and stores them in the flags associated with this object (see above).
Using these functions, you do not have to track which formats are presently implemented.
Usage is as follows:
Note that in the present example, the class DataOut
was used. However, any other class derived from DataOutInterface
would work alike.
This class, much like the GridOut
class, has a set of functions providing a list of supported output formats, an enum
denoting all these and a function to parse a string and return the respective enum
value if it is a valid output format's name (actually, these functions are inherited from the base class). Finally, there is a function write
, which takes a value of this enum
and dispatches to one of the actual write_*
functions depending on the output format selected by this value.
The functions offering the different output format names are, respectively, default_suffix
, parse_output_format
, and get_output_format_names
. They make the selection of output formats in parameter files much easier, and especially independent of the formats presently implemented. User programs need therefore not be changed whenever a new format is implemented.
Additionally, objects of this class have a default format, which can be set by the parameter "Output format" of the parameter file. Within a program, this can be changed by the member function set_default_format
. Using this default format, it is possible to leave the format selection completely to the parameter file. A suitable suffix for the output file name can be obtained by default_suffix
without arguments.

Some visualization programs, such as ParaView, can read several separate VTU files to parallelize visualization. In that case, you need a .pvtu
file that describes which VTU files form a group. The DataOutInterface::write_pvtu_record() function can generate such a master record. Likewise, DataOutInterface::write_visit_record() does the same for older versions of VisIt (although VisIt can also read pvtu
records since version 2.5.1). Finally, DataOutInterface::write_pvd_record() can be used to group together the files that jointly make up a time dependent simulation.
Definition at line 6594 of file data_out_base.cc.
void DataOutInterface< dim, spacedim >::write_vtu_in_parallel | ( | const char * | filename, |
MPI_Comm | comm | ||
) | const |
Collective MPI call to write the solution from all participating nodes (those in the given communicator) to a single compressed .vtu file on a shared file system. The communicator can be a sub communicator of the one used by the computation. This routine uses MPI I/O to achieve high performance on parallel filesystems. Also see DataOutInterface::write_vtu().

void DataOutInterface< dim, spacedim >::write_pvtu_record | ( | std::ostream & | out, |
const std::vector< std::string > & | piece_names | ||
) | const |
Some visualization programs, such as ParaView, can read several separate VTU files that all form part of the same simulation, in order to parallelize visualization. In that case, you need a .pvtu
file that describes which VTU files (written, for example, through the DataOutInterface::write_vtu() function) form a group. The current function can generate such a master record.
The master record file generated by this function contains a list of (scalar or vector) fields that describes which fields can actually be found in the individual files that comprise the set of parallel VTU files along with the names of these files. This function gets the names and types of fields through the get_dataset_names() and get_vector_data_ranges() functions of this class. The second argument to this function specifies the names of the files that form the parallel set.
pvtu
files that each describe one time step of a time dependent simulation, see the DataOutBase::write_pvd_record() function.pvtu
records. However, it can read visit records as written by the write_visit_record() function. Definition at line 6689 of file data_out_base.cc.
void DataOutInterface< dim, spacedim >::write_svg | ( | std::ostream & | out | ) | const |

void DataOutInterface< dim, spacedim >::write_deal_II_intermediate | ( | std::ostream & | out | ) | const |
Obtain data through get_patches() and write it to out
in deal.II intermediate format. See DataOutBase::write_deal_II_intermediate.
Note that the intermediate format is what its name suggests: a direct representation of internal data. It isn't standardized and will change whenever we change our internal representation. You can only expect to process files written in this format using the same version of deal.II that was used for writing.

const std::string & | filename, | ||
MPI_Comm | comm | ||
) | const |
Write the data in data_filter to a single HDF5 file containing both the mesh and solution values. Below is an example of how to use this function with the DataOutFilter:
Definition at line 6936 of file data_out_base.cc.
void DataOutInterface< dim, spacedim >::write_hdf5_parallel | ( | const DataOutBase::DataOutFilter & | data_filter, |
const bool | write_mesh_file, | ||
const std::string & | mesh_filename, | ||
const std::string & | solution_filename, | ||
MPI_Comm | comm | ||
) | const |
Write the data in data_filter to HDF5 file(s). If write_mesh_file is false, the mesh data will not be written and the solution file will contain only the solution values. If write_mesh_file is true and the filenames are the same, the resulting file will contain both mesh data and solution values.

to be a member of one of the child classes of OutputFlagsBase
.
Definition at line 7332 of file data_out_base.cc.
std::string DataOutInterface< dim, spacedim >::default_suffix | ( | const DataOutBase::OutputFormat | output_format = DataOutBase::default_format | ) | const |
A function that returns the same string as the respective function in the base class does; the only exception being that if the parameter is omitted, then the value for the present default format is returned, i.e. the correct suffix for the format that was set through set_default_format() or parse_parameters() before calling this function.

Declare parameters for all output formats by declaring subsections within the parameter file for each output format and call the respective declare_parameters
functions of the flag classes for each output format.
Some of the declared subsections may not contain entries, if the respective format does not export any flags.
Note that the top-level parameters denoting the number of subdivisions per patch and the output format are not declared, since they are only passed to virtual functions and are not stored inside objects of this type. You have to declare them yourself.
Definition at line 7377 of file data_out_base.cc.
void DataOutInterface< dim, spacedim >::parse_parameters | ( | ParameterHandler & | prm | ) |
Read the parameters declared in declare_parameters() and set the flags for the output formats accordingly.
The flags thus obtained overwrite all previous contents of the flag objects as default-constructed or set by the set_flags() function.
Definition at line 7427 of file data_out_base.cc.
std::size_t DataOutInterface< dim, spacedim >::memory_consumption | ( | ) | const |
Return an estimate for the memory consumption, in bytes, of this object. This is not exact (but will usually be close) because calculating the memory usage of trees (e.g., std::map
) is difficult.

This functions returns information about how the individual components of output files that consist of more than one data set are to be interpreted.
It returns a list of index pairs and corresponding name indicating which components of the output are to be considered vector-valued rather than just a collection of scalar data. The index pairs are inclusive; for example, if we have a Stokes problem in 2d with components (u,v,p), then the corresponding vector data range should be (0,1), and the returned list would consist of only a single element with a tuple such as (0,1,"velocity").
Since some of the derived classes do not know about vector data, this function has a default implementation that simply returns an empty string, meaning that all data is to be considered a collection of scalar fields.
