Detailed Description

AtPositionsForm represents a generic probe form. Refer to the ProbeFormBridge class for more information about probes and forms.

This particular form outputs a text column file listing the quantity being probed at the positions listed in a user-provided input file. This allows, for example, probing at the positions in a Particle or VoronoiMesh import file used for defining sources or media by configuring this probe with the same import file (any columns other than the position coordinates will be ignored).

The input text column file is expected to have three columns, respectively representing the x, y and z coordinates of a position in the spatial domain of the simulation. In case the input file has no unit specifications, the default units are parsec. Refer to the description of the TextInFile class for more information on overall formatting, on how to include header lines specifying the units for each column, and on how to use the useColumns property to address columns other than the first three.

The output file contains a line for each (non-empty and non-comment) line in the input file, in the same order. The first three columns repeat the x, y and z coordinates of the position (in the configured output units, which may differ from the input units). Subsequent column(s) list the quantity being probed.

This item type is displayed only if the Boolean expression "Level2" evaluates to true after replacing the names by true or false depending on their presence.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ AtPositionsForm()

AtPositionsForm::AtPositionsForm ( )
inlineprotected

Default constructor for concrete Item subclass AtPositionsForm: "a text column file with values for each imported position".

Member Function Documentation

◆ filename()

string AtPositionsForm::filename ( ) const
inline

This function returns the value of the discoverable string property filename: "the name of the file listing the positions".

◆ useColumns()

string AtPositionsForm::useColumns ( ) const
inline

This function returns the value of the discoverable string property useColumns: "a list of names corresponding to columns in the file to be imported".

The default value for this property is given by the conditional value expression "".

This property is required only if the Boolean expression "false" evaluates to true after replacing the names by true or false depending on their presence.

This property is displayed only if the Boolean expression "Level3" evaluates to true after replacing the names by true or false depending on their presence.

◆ writeQuantity()

void AtPositionsForm::writeQuantity ( const ProbeFormBridge * bridge) const
overridevirtual

This function causes the form to output file(s) as described in the class header for the quantity being probed according to the information provided by the specified ProbeFormBridge instance.

Implements Form.
