Detailed Description

Base class for the iterator class hierarchy.

The Iterator class is the base class for one of the primary class hierarchies in DAKOTA. The iterator hierarchy contains all of the iterative algorithms which use repeated execution of simulations as function evaluations. For memory efficiency and enhanced polymorphism, the iterator hierarchy employs the "letter/envelope idiom" (see Coplien "Advanced C++", p. 133), for which the base class (Iterator) serves as the envelope and one of the derived classes (selected in Iterator::get_iterator()) serves as the letter.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Iterator() [1/9]

Iterator

(

std::shared_ptr< TraitsBase >

traits = std::shared_ptr<TraitsBase>(new TraitsBase())

)

default constructor

The default constructor is used in Vector<Iterator> instantiations and for initialization of Iterator objects contained in meta-Iterators and Model recursions. iteratorRep is NULL in this case.

Iterator() [2/9]

Iterator	(	ProblemDescDB &	problem_db,
		std::shared_ptr< TraitsBase >	traits = std::shared_ptr<TraitsBase>(new TraitsBase())
	)

standard envelope constructor, which constructs its own model(s)

This constructor assigns a representation pointer into this envelope, transferring ownership. It behaves the same as a default construction followed by assign_rep(). Envelope constructor only needs to extract enough data to properly execute get_iterator(), since letter holds the actual base class data. This version is used for top-level ProblemDescDB-driven construction of all Iterators and MetaIterators, which construct their own Model instances.

References Dakota::abort_handler(), and Iterator::iteratorRep.

Iterator() [3/9]

Iterator	(	ProblemDescDB &	problem_db,
		Model &	model,
		std::shared_ptr< TraitsBase >	traits = std::shared_ptr<TraitsBase>(new TraitsBase())
	)

alternate envelope constructor which uses the ProblemDescDB but accepts a model from a higher level (meta-iterator) context, instead of constructing its own

Envelope constructor only needs to extract enough data to properly execute get_iterator(), since letter holds the actual base class data. This version is used for ProblemDescDB-driven construction of Iterators that are passed a Model from a higher-level context (e.g., a MetaIterator instantiates its sub-iterator(s) by name instead of pointer and passes in its iteratedModel, since these sub-iterators lack their own model pointers).

References Dakota::abort_handler(), and Iterator::iteratorRep.

Iterator() [4/9]

Iterator	(	const String &	method_string,
		Model &	model,
		std::shared_ptr< TraitsBase >	traits = std::shared_ptr<TraitsBase>(new TraitsBase())
	)

alternate envelope constructor for instantiations by name without the ProblemDescDB

Used in sub-iterator instantiations within iterator constructors. Envelope constructor only needs to extract enough data to properly execute get_iterator(), since letter holds the actual base class data. This version is used for lightweight constructions without the ProblemDescDB.

References Dakota::abort_handler(), and Iterator::iteratorRep.

Iterator() [5/9]

Iterator

(

const Iterator &

iterator

)

copy constructor

Copy constructor manages sharing of iteratorRep.

Iterator() [6/9]

Iterator ( BaseConstructor  , ProblemDescDB &  problem_db, std::shared_ptr< TraitsBase >  traits = std::shared_ptr<TraitsBase>(new TraitsBase())  )

protected

constructor initializes the base class part of letter classes (BaseConstructor overloading avoids infinite recursion in the derived class constructors - Coplien, p. 139)

This constructor builds the base class data for all inherited iterators, including meta-iterators. get_iterator() instantiates a derived class and the derived class selects this base class constructor in its initialization list (to avoid the recursion of the base class constructor calling get_iterator() again). Since the letter IS the representation, its representation pointer is set to NULL

References Iterator::method_enum_to_string(), Iterator::methodId, Iterator::methodName, Iterator::outputLevel, and Iterator::user_auto_id().

Iterator() [7/9]

Iterator ( NoDBBaseConstructor  , unsigned short  method_name, Model &  model, std::shared_ptr< TraitsBase >  traits = std::shared_ptr<TraitsBase>(new TraitsBase())  )

protected

alternate constructor for base iterator classes constructed on the fly

This alternate constructor builds base class data for inherited iterators. It is used for on-the-fly instantiations for which DB queries cannot be used, and is not used for construction of meta-iterators.

Iterator() [8/9]

Iterator ( NoDBBaseConstructor  , unsigned short  method_name, std::shared_ptr< TraitsBase >  traits = std::shared_ptr<TraitsBase>(new TraitsBase())  )

protected

alternate constructor for base iterator classes constructed on the fly

This alternate constructor builds base class data for inherited iterators. It is used for on-the-fly instantiations for which DB queries cannot be used, and is not used for construction of meta-iterators. It has no incoming model, so only sets up a minimal set of defaults. However, its use is preferable to the default constructor, which should remain as minimal as possible.

Iterator() [9/9]

Iterator ( NoDBBaseConstructor  , Model &  model, size_t  max_iter, size_t  max_eval, Real  conv_tol, std::shared_ptr< TraitsBase >  traits = std::shared_ptr<TraitsBase>(new TraitsBase())  )

protected

alternate envelope constructor for instantiations without ProblemDescDB

This alternate constructor builds base class data for inherited iterators. It is used for on-the-fly instantiations for which DB queries cannot be used, and is not used for construction of meta-iterators.

Member Function Documentation

initialize_run()

void initialize_run ( )

virtual

utility function to perform common operations prior to pre_run(); typically memory initialization; setting of instance pointers

Perform initialization phases of run sequence, like allocating memory and setting instance pointers. Commonly used in sub-iterator executions. This is a virtual function; when re-implementing, a derived class must call its nearest parent's initialize_run(), typically before performing its own implementation steps.

Reimplemented in ROLOptimizer, SNLLOptimizer, SNLLLeastSq, Optimizer, NonD, Minimizer, LeastSq, Analyzer, CONMINOptimizer, and APPSOptimizer.

References Iterator::iteratorRep.

Referenced by Iterator::run(), and SeqHybridMetaIterator::run_sequential_adaptive().

pre_run()

void pre_run ( )

virtual

pre-run portion of run (optional); re-implemented by Iterators which can generate all Variables (parameter sets) a priori

pre-run phase, which a derived iterator may optionally reimplement; when not present, pre-run is likely integrated into the derived run function. This is a virtual function; when re-implementing, a derived class must call its nearest parent's pre_run(), if implemented, typically before performing its own implementation steps.

Reimplemented in SurrBasedLocalMinimizer, PSUADEDesignCompExp, ParamStudy, NonDSampling, NonDRKDDarts, NonDNonHierarchSampling, NonDMultilevControlVarSampling, NonDLocalReliability, NonDLHSSampling, NonDGlobalReliability, NonDGenACVSampling, NonDEnsembleSampling, NonDBayesCalibration, FSUDesignCompExp, EffGlobalMinimizer, DDACEDesignCompExp, Analyzer, and ConcurrentMetaIterator.

virtual

post-run portion of run (optional); verbose to print results; re-implemented by Iterators that can read all Variables/Responses and perform final analysis phase in a standalone way

Post-run phase, which a derived iterator may optionally reimplement; when not present, post-run is likely integrated into run. This is a virtual function; when re-implementing, a derived class must call its nearest parent's post_run(), typically after performing its own implementation steps.

Reimplemented in NonDPolynomialChaos, SurrBasedLocalMinimizer, SNLLOptimizer, PSUADEDesignCompExp, ParamStudy, NonDRKDDarts, NonDReliability, NonDLHSSampling, NonDEnsembleSampling, MetaIterator, FSUDesignCompExp, EffGlobalMinimizer, DDACEDesignCompExp, Optimizer, Minimizer, LeastSq, Analyzer, and COLINOptimizer.

check_sub_iterator_conflict()

void check_sub_iterator_conflict ( )

virtual

detect any conflicts due to recursive use of the same Fortran solver

This is used to avoid clashes in state between non-object-oriented (i.e., F77, C) iterator executions, when such iterators could potentially be executing simultaneously (e.g., nested execution). It is not an issue (and a used method is not reported) in cases where a helper execution is completed before a lower level one could be initiated; an example of this is DIRECT for maximization of expected improvement: the EIF maximization is completed before a new point evaluation (which could include nested iteration) is performed.

Reimplemented in NonDLocalReliability, NonDLocalInterval, NLSSOLLeastSq, NCSUOptimizer, and CONMINOptimizer.

assign_rep()

void assign_rep

(

std::shared_ptr< Iterator >

iterator_rep

)

replaces existing letter with a new one

The assign_rep() function is used for publishing derived class letters to existing envelopes, as opposed to sharing representations among multiple envelopes (in particular, assign_rep is passed a letter object and operator= is passed an envelope object).

Use case assumes the incoming letter is instantiated on the fly and has no envelope. This case is modeled after get_iterator(): a letter is dynamically allocated and passed into assign_rep (its memory management is passed over to the envelope).

If the letter happens to be managed by another envelope, it will persist as long as the last envelope referencing it.

private

Used by the envelope to instantiate the correct letter class.

Used only by the envelope constructor to initialize iteratorRep to the appropriate derived type, as given by the DB's method_name. Supports all iterators and meta-iterators. These instantiations will NOT recurse on the Iterator(problem_db) constructor due to the use of BaseConstructor.

private

Used by the envelope to instantiate the correct letter class.

Used only by the envelope constructor to initialize iteratorRep to the appropriate derived type. Alternate construction of meta-iterators is supported to enable use of meta-iterators as components. These instantiations will NOT recurse on the Iterator(problem_db, model) constructor due to the use of BaseConstructor.

user_auto_id()

String user_auto_id ( )

staticprivate

return the next available method ID for no-ID user methods

Rationale: The parser allows multiple user-specified methods with empty (unspecified) ID. However, only a single Iterator with empty ID can be constructed (if it's the only one present, or the "last one parsed"). Therefore decided to prefer NO_METHOD_ID over NO_METHOD_ID_<num> for (partial) consistency with interface NO_ID convention. The addition of METHOD is it distinguish methods, models and interfaces in the HDF5 output.

no_spec_id()

String no_spec_id ( )

staticprivate

return the next available method ID for on-the-fly methods

Rationale: For now NOSPEC_METHOD_ID_ is chosen due to historical id="NO_SPECIFICATION" used for internally-constructed Iterators. Longer-term, consider auto-generating an ID that includes the context from which the method is constructed, e.g., the parent method or model's ID, together with its name.
