Collection of DeviceAPI functions related to agent birth

Public Functions

__device__ inline AgentOut(id_t *&d_agent_output_nextID, unsigned int *&scan_flag_agentOutput)

Constructor

Parameters:

  • d_agent_output_nextID – Pointer to global memory holding the IDs to be assigned to new agents (selected via atomic inc)

  • scan_flag_agentOutput – Pointer to (the start of) buffer of scan flags to be set true if this thread outputs an agent

template<typename T, unsigned int N>
__device__ void setVariable(const char (&variable_name)[N], T value) const

Sets a variable in a new agent to be output after the agent function has completed

Note

Any agent variables not set will remain as their default values

Note

Calling AgentOut::setVariable() or AgentOut::getID() will trigger agent output

Parameters:

  • variable_name – The name of the variable

  • value – The value to set the variable

Template Parameters:

  • T – The type of the variable, as set within the model description hierarchy

  • N – Variable name length, this should be ignored as it is implicitly set

Throws:

  • exception::DeviceError – If name is not a valid variable within the agent (flamegpu must be built with FLAMEGPU_SEATBELTS enabled for device error checking)

  • exception::DeviceError – If T is not the type of variable ‘name’ within the agent (flamegpu must be built with FLAMEGPU_SEATBELTS enabled for device error checking)

template<typename T, unsigned int N, unsigned int M>
__device__ void setVariable(const char (&variable_name)[M], unsigned int index, T value) const

Sets an element of an array variable in a new agent to be output after the agent function has completed

Note

Any agent variables not set will remain as their default values

Note

Calling AgentOut::setVariable() or AgentOut::getID() will trigger agent output

Parameters:

  • variable_name – The name of the array variable

  • index – The index to set within the array variable

  • value – The value to set the element of the array element

Template Parameters:

  • T – The type of the variable, as set within the model description hierarchy

  • N – The length of the array variable, as set within the model description hierarchy

  • M – Variable name length, this should be ignored as it is implicitly set

Throws:

  • exception::DeviceError – If name is not a valid variable within the agent (flamegpu must be built with FLAMEGPU_SEATBELTS enabled for device error checking)

  • exception::DeviceError – If T is not the type of variable ‘name’ within the agent (flamegpu must be built with FLAMEGPU_SEATBELTS enabled for device error checking)

  • exception::DeviceError – If index is out of bounds for the variable array specified by name (flamegpu must be built with FLAMEGPU_SEATBELTS enabled for device error checking)

__device__ id_t getID() const

Return the ID of the agent to be created

Note

Calling AgentOut::setVariable() or AgentOut::getID() will trigger agent output
