Member Function Documentation

void nest::noise_generator::calibrate ( )

privatevirtual

Recalculates parameters and forces reinitialization of amplitudes if number of targets has changed.

Implements nest::Node.

References nest::Time::get_ms(), nest::Time::get_resolution(), nest::names::h, SLIInterpreter::M_INFO, nest::names::omega, and numerics::pi.

void nest::noise_generator::event_hook ( DSCurrentEvent & e )

privatevirtual

Reimplemented from nest::Node.

References assert(), nest::Event::get_port(), nest::Event::get_receiver(), nest::Node::handle(), and nest::CurrentEvent::set_current().

void nest::noise_generator::get_status ( DictionaryDatum & d ) const

inline

References device_, nest::noise_generator::Parameters_::get(), nest::noise_generator::State_::get(), P_, and S_.

bool nest::noise_generator::has_proxies ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns true if the node has proxies on remote threads.

This is used to discriminate between different types of nodes, when adding new nodes to the network.

Reimplemented from nest::Node.

void nest::noise_generator::init_buffers_ ( )

privatevirtual

Private function to initialize the buffers of a node.

This function, which must be overloaded by all derived classes, provides the implementation for initializing the buffers of a node.

See also: Node::init_buffers()

Implements nest::Node.

void nest::noise_generator::init_state_ ( const Node & )

privatevirtual

Private function to initialize the state of a node to model defaults.

This function, which must be overloaded by all derived classes, provides the implementation for initializing the state of a node to the model defaults; the state is the set of observable dynamic variables.

Parameters

Reference to model prototype object.

See also: Node::init_state()

Note: To provide a reasonable behavior during the transition to the new scheme, init_state_() has a default implementation calling init_dynamic_state_().

Implements nest::Node.

References device_, and nest::Node::init_state().

nest::port nest::noise_generator::send_test_event	(	Node &	receiving_node,
		rport	receptor_type,
		synindex	syn_id,
		bool	dummy_target
	)

virtual

Send an event to the receiving_node passed as an argument.

Default implementation of check_connection just throws UnexpectedEvent.

This is required during the connection handshaking to test, if the receiving_node can handle the event type and receptor_type sent by the source node.

If dummy_target is true, this indicates that receiving_node is derived from ConnTestDummyNodeBase and used in the first call to send_test_event(). This can be ignored in most cases, but Nodes sending DS*Events to their own event hooks and then *Events to their proper targets must send DS*Events when called with the dummy target, and *Events when called with the real target, see #478.

Reimplemented from nest::Node.

References numerics::e, nest::Node::handles_test_event(), nest::invalid_port_, nest::names::p, and nest::Event::set_sender().
