Detailed Description

Simulation time object stores the simulation time. It uses the singleton pattern to provide a globally consistent time.

Note that the start time, end time and number of time steps must be set before time can be incremented and returned.

You should generally use the calls IncrementTimeOneStep() and GetTime() when using this class.

Definition at line 48 of file SimulationTime.hpp.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SimulationTime::SimulationTime (  )  [protected]

Default simulation time constructor

Sets up time, you must set the start time, end time and number of time steps before using the object.

Definition at line 50 of file SimulationTime.cpp.

References mpInstance.


Member Function Documentation

void SimulationTime::Destroy (  )  [static]

Destroy the current SimulationTime instance. The next call to Instance will create a new instance, on which SetEndTimeAndNumberOfTimeSteps must be called again to reset time.

This method *must* be called before program exit, to avoid a memory leak.

Definition at line 58 of file SimulationTime.cpp.

References mpInstance.

double SimulationTime::GetTime (  )  const

Get the simulation time (in hours), should not have rounding errors.

Returns:
simulation time

double SimulationTime::GetTimeStep (  )  const

Reset method for the end time and the number of time steps, to run the simulation further after a first initial run.

Parameters:
rEndTime the new end time for this simulation (the simulation will run from the current time to this new end time, NOT from 0 to this end time)

Serialization of a SimulationTime object must be done with care. Do not serialize this singleton directly. Instead, serialize the object returned by GetSerializationWrapper.

Parameters:
archive the archive
version the current version of this class
