Detailed Description

An instance of this class represents all the parameters specified in the Processors section of mascot.dat.

An instance of this class is created and populated in ms_datfile. It can also be created separately and initialized with default values. You can create an instance of the class or copy from another instance in order to pass it then as an parameters-containing object. For detailed information on any of the options please consult Mascot manual.

Most of the parameters here can be accessed using a dabatase number, which corresponds to database indices in ms_databases.

Also get yourselves acquainted with the base class ms_customproperty. It facilitates the following tasks:

Retrieving an unsupported property.
Retrieving a raw/text/XML property representation.
Checking for existence of a certain property rather than dealing with its default value.
Accessing commented lines in a section.

More functionality is described in the documentation for ms_customproperty.

Examples: config_mascotdat.cpp.

◆ getDefaultDelimiter()

std::string getDefaultDelimiter ( ) const

inherited

Return current default delimiter string used for parsing/storing properties.

◆ getNumberOfDatabases()

int getNumberOfDatabases ( ) const

Returns number of individual database entries in the section.

Each of the lines corresponds to a certain database. All CPU numbers are listed in the same database entry and correspond to threads. A number of CPUs listed for the database must be the same as number of threads specified for the database in Databases section of mascot.dat. Also, all CPUs listed here must belong to the set of CPUs specified by ProcessorSet parameter.

By default the list of databases is empty.

Returns: number of databases

◆ getNumberOfProcessors()

int getNumberOfProcessors ( ) const

Returns a number of processors specified in the ProcessorSet parameter.

The ProcessorSet line specifies the complete set of processors to be used. The number in this list must be less than or equal to the number processors licensed, or the system will not run.

There can be up to 64 CPUs specified in the bit mask. Each bit can be set either to 1 or 0 for a listed CPU or not listed one respectively. Following this parameter, the processors to be used for each database are specified in mascot.dat. These numbers must be a subset of the numbers in the ProcessorSet, and there must be the same number of values as the number of threads specified earlier in the database section.

See also: ms_processors::getWhichForDB(), ms_processors::getDBValSetInMascotDat()

By default the list is empty.
