Description

Abstract data module for writing data into a file.

Implements features common to all plotting modules. Subclasses implement features specific to certain applications (AnalysisDataPlotModule implements straightforward plotting).

By default, the data is written into an xvgr file, according to the options read from the AnalysisDataPlotSettings object given to the constructor. For non-xvgr data, it's possible to skip all headers by calling setPlainOutput().

A single output line corresponds to a single frame. In most cases with multipoint data, setPlainOutput() should be called since the output does not make sense as an xvgr file, but this is not enforced.

Multipoint data and multiple data sets are both supported, in which case all the points are written to the output, in the order in which they are added to the data.

Member Function Documentation

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::appendLegend ( const char *  setname)

Add a legend string for the next data set.

Multiple calls to setLegend() and/or appendLegend() are added together.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::appendLegend ( const std::string &  setname)

Add a legend string for the next data set.

Multiple calls to setLegend() and/or appendLegend() are added together.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::dataFinished ( )
overridevirtual

Called (once) when no more data is available.

Exceptions
unspecifiedCan throw any exception required by the implementing class to report errors.

Implements gmx::AnalysisDataModuleSerial.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::dataStarted ( AbstractAnalysisData data)
overridevirtual

Called (once) when the data has been set up properly.

Parameters
[in]dataData object to which the module is added.
Exceptions
APIErrorif the provided data is not compatible.
unspecifiedCan throw any exception required by the implementing class to report errors.

When the data is ready, either this method or parallelDataStarted() is called, depending on the nature of the input data. If this method is called, the input data will always present the frames in sequential order.

The data to which the module is attached is passed as an argument to provide access to properties of the data for initialization and/or validation. The module can also call AbstractAnalysisData::requestStorage() if needed.

This is the only place where the module gets access to the data; if properties of the data are required later, the module should store them internally. It is guaranteed that the data properties (column count, whether it's multipoint) do not change once this method has been called.

Notice that data will be a proxy object if the module is added as a column module, not the data object for which AbstractAnalysisData::addColumnModule() was called.

Implements gmx::AnalysisDataModuleSerial.

int gmx::AbstractPlotModule::flags ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns properties supported by the module.

The return value of this method should not change after the module has been added to a data (this responsibility can, and in most cases must, be delegated to the user of the module).

The purpose of this method is to remove the need for common checks for data compatibility in the classes that implement the interface. Instead, AbstractAnalysisData performs these checks based on the flags provided.

Does not throw.

Implements gmx::AnalysisDataModuleSerial.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::frameFinished ( const AnalysisDataFrameHeader header)
overridevirtual

Called when a data frame is finished.

Parameters
[in]headerHeader information for the frame that is ending.
Exceptions
unspecifiedCan throw any exception required by the implementing class to report errors.

Implements gmx::AnalysisDataModuleSerial.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::frameStarted ( const AnalysisDataFrameHeader frame)
overridevirtual

Called at the start of each data frame.

Parameters
[in]frameHeader information for the frame that is starting.
Exceptions
unspecifiedCan throw any exception required by the implementing class to report errors.

Implements gmx::AnalysisDataModuleSerial.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::pointsAdded ( const AnalysisDataPointSetRef points)
overridepure virtual

Called one or more times during each data frame.

Parameters
[in]pointsSet of points added (also provides access to frame-level data).
Exceptions
APIErrorif the provided data is not compatible.
unspecifiedCan throw any exception required by the implementing class to report errors.

Can be called once or multiple times for a frame. For all data objects currently implemented in the library (and all objects that will use AnalysisDataStorage for internal implementation), it is called exactly once for each frame if the data is not multipoint, but currently this restriction is not enforced.

Implements gmx::AnalysisDataModuleSerial.

Implemented in gmx::AnalysisDataVectorPlotModule, and gmx::AnalysisDataPlotModule.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::setFileName ( const std::string &  filename)

Set the output file name.

If no file name is set (or if filename is empty), no output occurs.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::setLegend ( int  nsets,
const char *const *  setname 
)

Add legend from an array of strings.

Multiple calls to setLegend() and/or appendLegend() are added together.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::setOmitX ( bool  bOmitX)

Omit the X coordinates from the output.

This method only makes sense when combined with setPlainOutput().

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::setPlainOutput ( bool  bPlain)

Set plain output.

If bPlain is true, no xvgr headers are written to the file. In this case, only setOmitX(), setXFormat(), and setYFormat() methods have any effect on the output.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::setSubtitle ( const std::string &  subtitle)

Set plot subtitle.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::setTitle ( const std::string &  title)

Set plot title.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::setXAxisIsTime ( )

Treat X axis as time.

Sets the label for the axis accordingly and also scales output to take into account the correct time unit.

void gmx::AbstractPlotModule::writeValue ( const AnalysisDataValue value) const
protected

Appends a single value to the current output line.

Parameters
[in]valueValue to append.

Should be used from pointsAdded() implementations in derived classes to write out individual y values to the output.

Must not be called if isFileOpen() returns false.
