◆ event_hook() [1/3]

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

virtual

Import sets of overloaded virtual functions.

See also: Technical Issues / Virtual Functions: Overriding, Overloading, and Hiding

Reimplemented from nest::Node.

◆ event_hook() [2/3]

void nest::Node::event_hook ( DSSpikeEvent & e )

virtual

Import sets of overloaded virtual functions.

See also: Technical Issues / Virtual Functions: Overriding, Overloading, and Hiding

Reimplemented from nest::Node.

◆ event_hook() [3/3]

void nest::poisson_generator::event_hook ( DSSpikeEvent & e )

overrideprivatevirtual

Modify Event object parameters during event delivery.

Some Nodes want to perform a function on an event for each of their targets. An example is the poisson_generator which needs to draw a random number for each target. The DSSpikeEvent, DirectSendingSpikeEvent, calls sender->event_hook(thread, *this) in its operator() function instead of calling target->handle(). The default implementation of Node::event_hook() just calls target->handle(DSSpikeEvent&). Any reimplementation must also execute this call. Otherwise the event will not be delivered. If needed, target->handle(DSSpikeEvent) may be called more than once.

Reimplemented from nest::Node.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ get_status()

void nest::poisson_generator::get_status ( Dictionary & ) const

inlineoverridevirtual

Export properties of the node by setting entries in the status dictionary.

Parameters

d	Dictionary.

Implements nest::Node.

◆ get_type()

inlineoverridevirtual

Reimplemented from nest::StimulationDevice.

References nest::StimulationDevice::SPIKE_GENERATOR.

◆ init_buffers_()

void nest::poisson_generator::init_buffers_ ( )

overrideprivatevirtual

Configure persistent internal data structures.

Let node configure persistent internal data structures, such as input buffers or ODE solvers, to runtime information prior to first simulation.

Reimplemented from nest::Node.

References nest::StimulationDevice::init_buffers().

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ init_state_()

void nest::poisson_generator::init_state_ ( )

overrideprivatevirtual

Configure state variables depending on runtime information.

Overload this method if the node needs to adapt state variables prior to first simulation to runtime information, e.g., the number of incoming connections.

Reimplemented from nest::Node.

References nest::StimulationDevice::init_state().

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ pre_run_hook()

void nest::poisson_generator::pre_run_hook ( )

overrideprivatevirtual

Re-calculate dependent parameters of the node.

This function is called each time a simulation is begun/resumed. It must re-calculate all internal Variables of the node required for spike handling or updating the node.

Implements nest::Node.

References nest::Time::get_resolution(), P_, nest::RandomDistribution< DistributionT >::param(), nest::poisson_generator::Variables_::poisson_dist_, nest::StimulationDevice::pre_run_hook(), nest::poisson_generator::Parameters_::rate_, and V_.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ send_test_event()

size_t nest::poisson_generator::send_test_event	(	Node &	receiving_node,
		size_t	receptor_type,
		synindex	syn_id,
		bool	dummy_target
	)

inlineoverridevirtual

Send an event to the receiving_node passed as an argument.

Default implementation of check_connection just throws IllegalConnection.

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.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ set_data_from_stimulation_backend()

References P_, nest::names::rate(), and nest::poisson_generator::Parameters_::set().

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ set_status()

void nest::poisson_generator::set_status ( const Dictionary & )

inlineoverridevirtual

Change properties of the node according to the entries in the dictionary.

Parameters

d	Dictionary with named parameter settings.

Implements nest::Node.

References P_, nest::poisson_generator::Parameters_::set(), and nest::StimulationDevice::set_status().

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ update()

void nest::poisson_generator::update	(	Time const &	,
		const long	,
		const long
	)

overrideprivatevirtual

Advance the state of the node in time through the given interval.

This method advances the state of the node through the interval (origin+from, origin+to], which is at most min_delay long.

Precondition: State of the node corresponds to the time origin+from.
Postcondition: State of the node corresponds to the time origin+to.

Each step between from and to corresponds to one simulation timestep (nest.resolution).

If events are emitted, they have time stamps in the interval T+from+1 .. T+to.

Parameters

origin	network time at beginning of time slice
from	initial step inside time slice
to	post-final step inside time slice

Implements nest::Node.
