Prerequisite

Etymology

A TempLattice disappears from both memory and disk when it goes out of scope. Hence it is only useful for temporary storage of data.

Synopsis

Lattice classes are designed to allow the memory-efficient handling of large amounts of data. But they can also used with much smaller arrays. With large amounts of data the PagedArray class should be used, as this will store the data on disk and efficiently access specified portions of the data on request. With small amounts of data the ArrayLattice class should be used as all the data is always in memory avoiding the I/O associated with PagedArrays.

Applications often cannot predict until run time whether they will be dealing with a large or small amount of data. So the use of a PagedArray or an ArrayLattice cannot be made until the size of the arrays are known. TempLattice makes this decision given the size of the Array. To help in making a good choice the TempLattice class also examines how much memory the operating system has (using an aipsrc variable) and compares it with the size of the requested Array.

The algorithm currently used is: create an ArrayLattice if the size of the array is less than a quarter of the total system memory; otherwise a PagedArray is created. The PagedArray is stored in the current working directory and given a unique name that contains the string "pagedArray". This pagedArray will be deleted once the TempLattice goes out of scope. So unlike PagedArrays which can be made to exist longer than the time they are used by a process, the PagedArrays created by the TempLattice class are always scratch arrays.

It is possible to temporarily close a TempLattice, which only takes effect when it is created as a PagedArray. In this way it is possible to reduce the number of open files in case a lot of TempLattice objects are used. A temporarily closed TempLattice will be reopened automatically when needed. It can also be reopened explicitly.

You can force the TempLattice to be disk based by setting the memory argument in the constructors to 0

TempLattice is implemented using TempLatticeImpl for reasons explained in that class.

Example

// Create a temporary lattice and initialize to 0.
TempLattice<Float> myLat (IPosition(2,1024,1024));
myLat.set (0.);
// Temporarily close the lattice.
myLat.tempClose();
// Do an operation, which will automatically reopen the lattice.
myLat.set (1.);
// Note that the destructor deletes the table (if the TempLattice
// was created on disk).

Motivation

I needed a temporary Lattice when converting the Convolver class to using Lattices. This was to store the Transfer function.

Template Type Argument Requirements (T)

Any type that can be used by the Lattices can also be used by this class.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ TempLattice() [1/4]

template<class T >

casacore::TempLattice< T >::TempLattice ( )

inline

The default constructor creates a TempLattice containing a default ArrayLattice object.

Definition at line 137 of file TempLattice.h.

◆ TempLattice() [2/4]

template<class T >

casacore::TempLattice< T >::TempLattice	(	const TiledShape &	shape,
		Int	maxMemoryInMB = `-1`
	)

inlineexplicit

Create a TempLattice of the specified shape.

You can specify how much memory the Lattice can consume before it becomes disk based by giving a non-negative value to the maxMemoryInMB argument. Otherwise it will assume it can use up to 25% of the memory on your machine as defined in aipsrc (this algorithm may change). Setting maxMemoryInMB to zero will force the lattice to disk.

Definition at line 147 of file TempLattice.h.

◆ TempLattice() [3/4]

template<class T >

casacore::TempLattice< T >::TempLattice	(	const TiledShape &	shape,
		Double	maxMemoryInMB
	)

inline

Definition at line 149 of file TempLattice.h.

◆ TempLattice() [4/4]

template<class T >

casacore::TempLattice< T >::TempLattice ( const TempLattice< T > & other )

inline

The copy constructor uses reference semantics.

ie modifying data in the copied TempLattice also modifies the data in the original TempLattice. Passing by value doesn't make sense, because it may require the creation of a temporary (but possibly huge) file on disk.

Definition at line 157 of file TempLattice.h.

◆ ~TempLattice()

template<class T >

virtual casacore::TempLattice< T >::~TempLattice ( )

virtual

The destructor removes the Lattice from memory and if necessary disk.

Member Function Documentation

◆ advisedMaxPixels()

template<class T >

virtual uInt casacore::TempLattice< T >::advisedMaxPixels ( ) const

virtual

This function returns the recommended maximum number of pixels to include in the cursor of an iterator.

Reimplemented from casacore::Lattice< T >.

◆ apply() [1/3]

template<class T >

virtual void casacore::TempLattice< T >::apply ( const Functional< T, T > & function )

virtual

Reimplemented from casacore::Lattice< T >.

◆ apply() [2/3]

template<class T >

virtual void casacore::TempLattice< T >::apply ( T(*)(const T &) function )

virtual

◆ apply() [3/3]

template<class T >

virtual void casacore::TempLattice< T >::apply ( T(*)(T) function )

virtual

Replace every element, x, of the Lattice with the result of f(x).

You must pass in the address of the function – so the function must be declared and defined in the scope of your program. All versions of apply require a function that accepts a single argument of type T (the Lattice template type) and return a result of the same type. The first apply expects a function with an argument passed by value; the second expects the argument to be passed by const reference; the third requires an instance of the class Functional<T,T>. The first form ought to run faster for the built-in types, which may be an issue for large Lattices stored in memory, where disk access is not an issue.
