<h2>
|
||||
<a NAME="new_parameters"></a>Adding new parameters</h2>
|
||||
All parameters in Zoltan should be set and accessed through the <a href="dev_services_params.html">parameter
|
||||
setting routines</a>. To add a new parameter to an existing method, you
|
||||
need to do the following:
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
In the source code for the desired method, search for the place where
|
||||
the static array of parameters is defined. It will look something like:
|
||||
<i>static
|
||||
PARAM_VARS Method_params[] = { ... }</i>. Add a line with the name
|
||||
of the new parameter, a pointer to the variable you want to associate (usually
|
||||
NULL), and its type.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
In the method source code, bind the parameter to a local variable through
|
||||
<b><a href="dev_services_params.html#Zoltan_Bind_Param">Zoltan_Bind_Param</a></b>.
|
||||
Make sure you do this before <b><a href="dev_services_params.html#Zoltan_Assign_Param_Vals">Zoltan_Assign_Param_Vals
|
||||
</a></b>is
|
||||
invoked.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
Update the parameter function for the method in question. This routine
|
||||
is typically called <b>Zoltan_</b><i>Method</i><b>_Set_Param</b><i>. </i>This
|
||||
routine checks if a given string is a valid parameter for that method.
|
||||
It may also verify the values.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
When you add a new method to Zoltan, you also need to:
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
Write a parameter function for your method that checks whether a given
|
||||
string and value is a valid parameter pair for your method. See <b>Zoltan_RCB_Set_Param</b>
|
||||
in <i>rcb/rcb.c</i> for an example.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
Let your method access the parameters via <b><a href="dev_services_params.html#Zoltan_Bind_Param">Zoltan_Bind_Param
|
||||
</a></b>and
|
||||
<b><a href="dev_services_params.html#Zoltan_Assign_Param_Vals">Zoltan_Assign_Param_Vals</a></b>.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
Change the parameter function array in <i>params/set_params.c</i> to include
|
||||
your parameter function. Simply add a new entry to the static array that
|
||||
looks like: <i>static ZOLTAN_SET_PARAM_FN * Param_func[] = {...}</i>.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>
|
||||
Make sure your method uses the <a href="../ug_html/ug_param.html#General_Parameters">key
|
||||
parameters</a> in Zoltan correctly.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
One useful convention is to put your method routine and your corresponding
|
||||
parameter function in the same source file. This way you can define the
|
||||
parameters in a static array. This convention eliminates the risk
|
||||
of bugs caused by duplicate declarations (that are, incorrectly, not identical).
