Detailed Description

Timer support and logging.

vtkTimerLog contains walltime and cputime measurements associated with a given event. These results can be later analyzed when "dumping out" the table.

In addition, vtkTimerLog allows the user to simply get the current time, and to start/stop a simple timer separate from the timing table logging.

Member Function Documentation

vtkTimerLog* vtkTimerLog::New  )  [static]
 

Create an object with Debug turned off, modified time initialized to zero, and reference counting on.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

virtual const char* vtkTimerLog::GetClassName  )  [virtual]
 

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

int vtkTimerLog::IsTypeOf const char *  type  )  [static]
 

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

virtual int vtkTimerLog::IsA const char *  type  )  [virtual]
 

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

vtkTimerLog* vtkTimerLog::SafeDownCast vtkObject o  )  [static]
 

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

void vtkTimerLog::PrintSelf ostream &  os,
vtkIndent  indent
[virtual]
 

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

void vtkTimerLog::SetLogging int  v  )  [inline, static]
 

This flag will turn loging of events off or on. By default, logging is on.

Definition at line 109 of file vtkTimerLog.h.

References Logging.

Referenced by LoggingOff(), and LoggingOn().

int vtkTimerLog::GetLogging  )  [inline, static]
 

This flag will turn loging of events off or on. By default, logging is on.

Definition at line 110 of file vtkTimerLog.h.

void vtkTimerLog::LoggingOn  )  [inline, static]
 

This flag will turn loging of events off or on. By default, logging is on.

Definition at line 111 of file vtkTimerLog.h.

References SetLogging().

void vtkTimerLog::LoggingOff  )  [inline, static]
 

This flag will turn loging of events off or on. By default, logging is on.

Definition at line 112 of file vtkTimerLog.h.

References SetLogging().

void vtkTimerLog::SetMaxEntries int  a  )  [static]
 

Set/Get the maximum number of entries allowed in the timer log

int vtkTimerLog::GetMaxEntries  )  [static]
 

Set/Get the maximum number of entries allowed in the timer log

void vtkTimerLog::FormatAndMarkEvent const char *  EventString,
  ...
[static]
 

Record a timing event. The event is represented by a formatted string.

void vtkTimerLog::DumpLog const char *  filename  )  [static]
 

Write the timing table out to a file. Calculate some helpful statistics (deltas and percentages) in the process.

void vtkTimerLog::MarkStartEvent const char *  EventString  )  [static]
 

I want to time events, so I am creating this interface to mark events that have a start and an end. These events can be, nested. The standard Dumplog ignores the indents.

void vtkTimerLog::MarkEndEvent const char *  EventString  )  [static]
 

I want to time events, so I am creating this interface to mark events that have a start and an end. These events can be, nested. The standard Dumplog ignores the indents.

void vtkTimerLog::DumpLogWithIndents ostream *  os,
double  threshold
[static]
 

int vtkTimerLog::GetNumberOfEvents  )  [static]
 

Programatic access to events. Indexed from 0 to num-1.

int vtkTimerLog::GetEventIndent int  i  )  [static]
 

Programatic access to events. Indexed from 0 to num-1.

double vtkTimerLog::GetEventWallTime int  i  )  [static]
 

Programatic access to events. Indexed from 0 to num-1.

const char* vtkTimerLog::GetEventString int  i  )  [static]
 

Programatic access to events. Indexed from 0 to num-1.

void vtkTimerLog::MarkEvent const char *  EventString  )  [static]
 

Record a timing event and capture wall time and cpu ticks.

void vtkTimerLog::ResetLog  )  [static]
 

Clear the timing table. walltime and cputime will also be set to zero when the first new event is recorded.

void vtkTimerLog::AllocateLog  )  [static]
 

Allocate timing table with MaxEntries elements.

void vtkTimerLog::CleanupLog  )  [static]
 

Remove timer log.

double vtkTimerLog::GetCurrentTime  )  [static]
 

Returns the elapsed number of seconds since January 1, 1970. This is also called Universal Coordinated Time.

double vtkTimerLog::GetCPUTime  )  [static]
 

Returns the CPU time for this process On Win32 platforms this actually returns wall time.

void vtkTimerLog::StartTimer  ) 
 

Set the StartTime to the current time. Used with GetElapsedTime().

void vtkTimerLog::StopTimer  ) 
 

Sets EndTime to the current time. Used with GetElapsedTime().

double vtkTimerLog::GetElapsedTime  ) 
 

Returns the difference between StartTime and EndTime as a doubleing point value indicating the elapsed time in seconds.
