Detailed Description

template<class SourceClass>
class ParameterAcceptorProxy< SourceClass >

A proxy ParameterAcceptor wrapper for classes that have a static member function declare_parameters, and a non virtual parse_parameters method.

If you cannot or do not want to derive your "parameter accepting" class from ParameterAcceptor, for example if by design you are required to have a static member function declare_parameters and a member parse_parameters, or if someone has already implemented such a class for you, and only provides you with an API that you cannot modify, then you may be able to use ParameterAcceptor facilities nonetheless, by wrapping your class into ParameterAcceptorProxy.

This class implements the public interface of ParameterAcceptor, and at the same time it derives from the template class SourceClass, allowing you to register your existing SourceClass as a ParameterAcceptor class, without requiring you to explicitly derive your SourceClass from ParameterAcceptor.

An example usage is given by the following snippet of code, using Functions::ParsedFunction as an example source class:

ParameterAcceptorProxy<Functions::ParsedFunction<2> > fun("Some function");
ParameterAcceptor::initialize("test.prm");

The above snippet of code will initialize ParameterAcceptor::prm with a section "Some function", and will correctly parse and assign to the object fun the expression parsed from the file test.prm. If non-existent, the program will exit, and generate it for you (here you can see the resulting short text version of the parameter file generated with the above snippet):

# Parameter file generated with
# DEAL_II_PACKAGE_VERSION = 9.0.0-pre
subsection Some function
  set Function constants  =
  set Function expression = 0
  set Variable names      = x,y,t
end

The resulting fun object, is both a ParsedFunction object and a ParameterAcceptor one, allowing you to use it as a replacement of the ParsedFunction class, with automatic declaration and parsing of parameter files.

See the tutorial program step-60 for an example on how to use this class.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ParameterAcceptorProxy()

template<class SourceClass >

template<typename... Args>

ParameterAcceptorProxy< SourceClass >::ParameterAcceptorProxy	(	const std::string	section_name,
		Args...	args
	)

Default constructor. The argument section_name is forwarded to the constructor of the ParameterAcceptor class, while all other arguments are passed to the SourceClass constructor.

Member Function Documentation

declare_parameters()

template<class SourceClass >

void ParameterAcceptorProxy< SourceClass >::declare_parameters ( ParameterHandler &  prm )

virtual

Overloads the ParameterAcceptor::declare_parameters function, by calling SourceClass::declare_parameters with prm as an argument.

Reimplemented from ParameterAcceptor.

parse_parameters()

template<class SourceClass >

void ParameterAcceptorProxy< SourceClass >::parse_parameters ( ParameterHandler &  prm )

virtual

Overloads the ParameterAcceptor::parse_parameters function, by calling SourceClass::parse_parameters with prm as an argument.

Reimplemented from ParameterAcceptor.
