Detailed Description

load and save Network instances. This class can be used with MP, but each NetLoader instance is attached to the Network instance it is managing. If you want to use this class in an SMP environmant with 20 Network instances you will need 20 associated NetLoader instances

Member Function Documentation

Layer* NetLoader::BuildLayer (  int    size, int    startNrnId, LayerConstants    layerConst, string    neuronType )

Build a Layer that is composed of one particular Neuron type

string NetLoader::LayerTypeStr (  LayerType    lType )  [protected]

Returns: a string identifying the layer given by IType

void NetLoader::LoadXML (  const char *    filename )

Load a Network from a file Parameters: filename

void NetLoader::RegisterNeuronClass (  NeuronFactoryBase *    factory )

Register a new NeuronFactory

void NetLoader::SaveLayers (  FILE *    netFile )  [protected]

Put all layers into the DOM tree

void NetLoader::SaveXML (  string    filename )

save a single Network Instance to a file. Parameters: filename  the file to save the Network

void NetLoader::SAXEndElement1 (  const char *    name )

a SAX callback - don't use this function

void NetLoader::SAXEndElement2 (  const char *    name )

a SAX callback - don't use this function

void NetLoader::SAXError (    )

handles all SAX errors - don't use this function

void NetLoader::SAXPass (  const char *    filename, int    pass )  [protected]

Loading is done in 2 passes: in the first pass we instantiate all layers and neurons. In the second we connect them.

void NetLoader::SAXStartElement1 (  const char *    name, const char **    attrs )

a SAX callback - don't use this function

void NetLoader::SAXStartElement2 (  const char *    name, const char **    attrs )

a SAX callback - don't use this function

void NetLoader::WriteSynapses (  FILE *    netFile, Neuron *    preNrn )  [protected]

put the weights into the DOM tree
