Detailed Description

template<class T>
struct Cantera::CachedValue< T >

A cached property value and the state at which it was evaluated.

This struct stores the value of some property evaluated at a particular thermodynamic state. The value can be either a real scalar or an array, depending on the template parameter T. The exact meaning of state1, state2, and stateNum is determined by the function using the cached value, which can check any combination of these variables before deciding whether to recompute the cached values.

References to CachedValue objects are returned by the "get" methods of ValueCache, for example ValueCache::getScalar. Functions accessing cached values should use the typedefs CachedScalar and CachedArray. See ValueCache for details on how these classes should be used together.
