Detailed Description

Storage for cached values

Stores cached values of properties evaluated at a particular thermodynamic state. A class that needs cached values can have a ValueCache as a member variable.

Each method in the class that implements caching behavior needs a unique id for its cached value. This id should be obtained by using the getId() function to initialize a static variable within the function.

For cases where the property is a scalar or vector, the cached value can be stored in the CachedValue object. If the data type of the cached value is more complex, then it can be stored in the calling class, and the value attribute of the CachedScalar object can be ignored.

An example use of class ValueCache:

class Example {
    ValueCache m_cache;
    doublereal get_property(doublereal T, doublereal P) {
        const static int cacheId = m_cache.getId();
        CachedScalar cached = m_cache.getScalar(cacheId);
        if (T != cached.state1 || P != cached.state2) {
            cached.value = some_expensive_function(T,P);
            cached.state1 = T;
            cached.state2 = P;
        }
        return cached.value;
    }
};

Member Function Documentation

◆ getId()

int getId ( )

Get a unique id for a cached value.

Must be called exactly once for each method that implements caching behavior.

◆ getScalar()

CachedScalar getScalar ( int id )

inline

Get a reference to a CachedValue object representing a scalar (doublereal) with the given id.

Definition at line 165 of file ValueCache.h.

References ValueCache::m_scalarCache.

◆ getArray()

CachedArray getArray ( int id )

inline

Get a reference to a CachedValue object representing an array (vector_fp) with the given id.

Definition at line 171 of file ValueCache.h.

References ValueCache::m_arrayCache.

◆ clear()

void clear ( )

Clear all cached values.

This method should be called if the cached values may be invalidated in a way that is not represented by the state variables alone, such as a change to the constants defining a species thermodynamics as a function of temperature.
