getParameterDescription()

std::string getParameterDescription

(

const std::string &

name

)

const

Returns the description of a parameter given by its name.

Throws an exception of type ModuleParameterNotFoundError if a parameter with the given name does not exist.

Parameters

name	The unique name of the parameter.

Returns

The description of the parameter as string

Definition at line 105 of file ModuleParamList.cc.

{
  return getParameterPtr(name)->getDescription();
}

getParameterNames()

std::vector< std::string > getParameterNames

(

)

const

Returns the names of all parameters in this parameter list.

Returns

The names of the parameters

Definition at line 95 of file ModuleParamList.cc.

getParameterPtr()

ModuleParamPtr getParameterPtr ( const std::string &  name ) const

private

Returns a ModuleParamPtr to a parameter.

Throws an exception of type ModuleParameterNotFoundError if a parameter with the given name does not exist.

Parameters

name	The unique name of the parameter.

Definition at line 124 of file ModuleParamList.cc.

getParameterTypeInfo()

std::string getParameterTypeInfo

(

const std::string &

name

)

const

Returns the type info of a parameter given by its name.

Throws an exception of type ModuleParameterNotFoundError if a parameter with the given name does not exist.

Parameters

name	The unique name of the parameter.

Returns

Definition at line 110 of file ModuleParamList.cc.

getParamInfoListPython()

std::shared_ptr< boost::python::list > getParamInfoListPython

(

)

const

Returns a python list of all parameters.

Each item in the list consists of the name of the parameter, a string describing its type, a python list of all values, a python list of all default values, the information of the parameter was set in the steering file and the description of the parameter.

Returns

A python list containing the parameters of this parameter list.

Definition at line 64 of file ModuleParamList.cc.

throwNotFoundError()

void throwNotFoundError ( const std::string &  name )

staticprivate

Throws an error for a requested parameter that does not exist.

Parameters

name	The name of the parameter.

Definition at line 33 of file ModuleParamList.cc.

throwTypeError()

void throwTypeError ( const std::string &  name, const std::string &  expectedTypeInfo, const std::string &  typeInfo  )

staticprivate

Throws an error for a requested parameter that exists but was request with the wrong type.

Parameters

name	The name of the parameter.
expectedTypeInfo	Type information which the parameter actually has.
typeInfo	Type information with which the parameter was looked up.
