Detailed Description

Specialization of SolverControl which returns success if either the specified tolerance is achieved or if the initial residual (or whatever criterion was chosen by the solver class) is reduced by a given factor. This is useful in cases where you don't want to solve exactly, but rather want to gain two digits or if the maximal number of iterations is achieved. For example: The maximal number of iterations is 20, the reduction factor is 1% and the tolerance is 0.1%. The initial residual is 2.5. The process will break if 20 iteration are completed or the new residual is less then 2.5*1% or if it is less then 0.1%.

Definition at line 151 of file enable_observer_pointer.cc.

n_subscriptions()

void EnableObserverPointer::list_subscribers ( StreamType &  stream ) const

serialize()

template<class Archive >

void EnableObserverPointer::serialize ( Archive &  ar, const unsigned int  version  )

inlineinherited

Read or write the data of this object to or from a stream for the purpose of serialization using the BOOST serialization library.

This function does not actually serialize any of the member variables of this class. The reason is that what this class stores is only who subscribes to this object, but who does so at the time of storing the contents of this object does not necessarily have anything to do with who subscribes to the object when it is restored. Consequently, we do not want to overwrite the subscribers at the time of restoring, and then there is no reason to write the subscribers out in the first place.

Definition at line 331 of file enable_observer_pointer.h.

check_no_subscribers()

void EnableObserverPointer::check_no_subscribers ( ) const

privatenoexceptinherited

Check that there are no objects subscribing to this object. If this check passes then it is safe to destroy the current object. It this check fails then this function will either abort or print an error message to deallog (by using the AssertNothrow mechanism), but will not throw an exception.

Note

Since this function is just a consistency check it does nothing in release mode.

If this function is called when there is an uncaught exception then, rather than aborting, this function prints an error message to the standard error stream and returns.

Definition at line 53 of file enable_observer_pointer.cc.

counter

std::atomic<unsigned int> EnableObserverPointer::counter

mutableprivateinherited

Store the number of objects which subscribed to this object. Initially, this number is zero, and upon destruction it shall be zero again (i.e. all objects which subscribed should have unsubscribed again).

The creator (and owner) of an object is counted in the map below if HE manages to supply identification.

We use the mutable keyword in order to allow subscription to constant objects also.

This counter may be read from and written to concurrently in multithreaded code: hence we use the std::atomic class template.

counter_map

mutableprivateinherited

Pointer to the typeinfo object of this object, from which we can later deduce the class name. Since this information on the derived class is neither available in the destructor, nor in the constructor, we obtain it in between and store it here.

Definition at line 257 of file enable_observer_pointer.h.

mutex

std::mutex EnableObserverPointer::mutex

staticprivateinherited

A mutex used to ensure data consistency when accessing the mutable members of this class. This lock is used in the subscribe() and unsubscribe() functions, as well as in list_subscribers().
