Detailed Description

The AutoParameter class.

This class overides the setValue() method of class Parameter so that no Exception is thrown. This allows to perform optimization under constraint.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ AutoParameter() [1/3]

AutoParameter::AutoParameter ( const std::string &  name = "",
double  value = 0,
Constraint constraint = 0,
bool  attachConstraint = false 
)
throw (ConstraintException
)

Build a new AutoParameter.

Parameters
nameThe parameter name.
valueThe parameter value.
constraintAn optional pointer toward a Constraint object.
attachConstraintTell if the constraint must be attached to this parameter, or shared between different objects. See Parameter.
Exceptions
ConstraintExceptionIf the parameter value does not match the contraint.

◆ AutoParameter() [2/3]

AutoParameter::AutoParameter ( const Parameter param)

Copy constructor.

Parameters
paramThe parameter to copy.

Definition at line 64 of file AutoParameter.cpp.

◆ AutoParameter() [3/3]

AutoParameter::AutoParameter ( const AutoParameter param)

Copy constructor.

Parameters
paramThe parameter to copy.

Member Function Documentation

◆ addParameterListener()

virtual void bpp::Parameter::addParameterListener ( ParameterListener listener,
bool  attachListener = true 
)
inlinevirtualinherited

Add a new listener to this parameter.

Parameters
listenerThe listener to add.
attachListenerTell if the parameter will own this listener. If so, deep copies will be made when cloning the parameter, and the listener will be destroyed upon destruction of the parameter or upon removal. Alternatively, only superficial copies will be made, and the listener will persist if the parameter is destroyed.

◆ setMessageHandler()

virtual void bpp::AutoParameter::setMessageHandler ( OutputStream mh)
inlinevirtual

Set the message handler for this AutoParameter.

The message handler keeps all messages that the parameter may send. The default handler is set to standard output, but you can pass any ostream object (cerr, ofstream, etc.).

A NULL pointer disable message output.

Parameters
mhThe message handler to use.

◆ setName()

virtual void bpp::Parameter::setName ( const std::string &  name)

◆ setPrecision()

void Parameter::setPrecision ( double  precision)
inherited

Set the precision of this parameter.

Parameters
precisionthe new parameter precision.

Precision:

Definition at line 136 of file Parameter.cpp.

References bpp::Parameter::precision_.

◆ setValue()

void AutoParameter::setValue ( double  value)
throw (ConstraintException
)
virtual

Set the value of this parameter.

This method is redefined so that no constraintException is thrown! When a Constraint is match, we automatically apply a correct value instead. This correct value is the nearest limit reached by the value, or a value next to the limit if the limit is not reachable.

This allow to perform optimization under constraint whith algorithms that are not initially built for this.

Parameters
valuethe new parameter value.
Exceptions
ConstraintExceptionNever thrown!

Reimplemented from bpp::Parameter.
