WELLDumpRestore¶

This module contains only two functions to deal with dumping and restoring the internal state of the randomm number generator WELL512.

Public Functions¶

int dumpWELL(WELL512 **apWELL, int iNumWELL, const std::string sOwner, hid_t hSpeciesGroup);

Dump the internal state of the random number generators.

apWELL: Array of pointers to the RWNGs.
iNumWELL: Number of RNGs in the array.
sOwner: Name of the owner (e.g. species name for the population’s RNGS, or action name ofr specific actions like genetocs) or any other identifying string.
hSpeciesGroup: HDF handle to the group for this species.

The data will be written as attributes to the species group.

Returns 0 on succes, -1 on failure.

int restoreWELL(WELL512 **apWELL, int iNumWELL, const std::string sOwner, hid_t hSpeciesGroup);

Restore the internal state of the random number generators.

apWELL: Array of pointers to the RNGs.
iNumWELL: Number of RNGs in the array.
sOwner: Name of the owner (e.g. species name for the population’s RNGS, or action name ofr specific actions like genetocs) or any other identifying string. IMPORTANT: must be the same name as the one used with the dump command.
hSpeciesGroup: HDF handle to the group for this species.

Returns 0 on succes, -1 on failure.
