Member Function Documentation

◆ Destroy()

void ns3::GrantedTimeWindowMpiInterface::Destroy ( )
overridevirtual

Deletes storage used by the parallel environment.

◆ Disable()

void ns3::GrantedTimeWindowMpiInterface::Disable ( )
overridevirtual

Clean up the ns-3 parallel communications interface.

MPI_Finalize will be called only if Enable (int* pargc, char*** pargv) was called.

Implements ns3::ParallelCommunicationInterface.

Definition at line 339 of file granted-time-window-mpi-interface.cc.

References g_communicator, g_enabled, g_freeCommunicator, g_mpiInitCalled, NS_FATAL_ERROR, and NS_LOG_FUNCTION_NOARGS.

◆ Enable() [1/2]

void ns3::GrantedTimeWindowMpiInterface::Enable ( int *  pargc,
char ***  pargv 
)
overridevirtual

Setup the parallel communication interface.

There are two ways to setup the communications interface. This Enable method is the easiest method and should be used in most situations.

Disable() must be invoked at end of an ns-3 application to properly cleanup the parallel communication interface.

This method will call MPI_Init and configure ns-3 to use the MPI_COMM_WORLD communicator.

For more complex situations, such as embedding ns-3 with other MPI simulators or libraries, the Enable(MPI_Comm communcicator) may be used if MPI is initialized externally or if ns-3 needs to be run unique communicator. For example if there are two parallel simulators and the goal is to run each simulator on a different set of ranks.

Note
The `SimulatorImplementationType attribute in ns3::GlobalValues must be set before calling Enable()
Parameters
pargcnumber of command line arguments
pargvcommand line arguments
