<H3>

|
<A NAME="include"></A>Include files</H3>
|
||
|
|
Include files should be used for function prototypes, macro definitions,
|
||
|
|
and data structure definitions. The convention used is that external function
|
||
|
|
prototypes and data structure definitions
|
||
|
|
required by more than one module are stored in include files named
|
||
|
|
<I>*_const.h</I> (e.g., <I>zz/zz_const.h</I>). Include files with static
|
||
|
|
function prototypes or static data structure
|
||
|
|
definitions (i.e., files that are included in only one module) are
|
||
|
|
named <I>*.h</I> (e.g.,<I> rcb/rcb.h</I>).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>The include file <I>include/zoltan.h</I> contains the Zoltan
|
||
|
|
interface; it should be included by C application source files that call
|
||
|
|
Zoltan. C++ applications that use the C++ interface should include
|
||
|
|
<I>include/zoltan_cpp.h</I> instead.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The include file <I>zz/zz_const.h</I> describes
|
||
|
|
the principle Zoltan data structures. As these data structures
|
||
|
|
are used heavily by the algorithms in Zoltan, <I>zz/zz_const.h</I>
|
||
|
|
should be included in most source files of Zoltan.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Every Zoltan C language header file should be surrounded with an
|
||
|
|
<B>extern "C" {}</B> declaration. The declaration must occur after
|
||
|
|
every other <B>#include</B> statement, and before all function
|
||
|
|
declarations.
|
||
|
|
This declaration tells a C++ compiler not to
|
||
|
|
mangle the names of functions declared in that header file.

<p>
|
||
|
|
If an <B>#include</B> statement appears after the opening of the
|
||
|
|
<B>extern "C" {}</B> declaration, the included file may cause
|
||
|
|
<B>mpi.h</B> or some other system header file to be processed. When
|
||
|
|
compiling with a C++ compiler, this usually leads to compile errors
|
||
|
|
because the function names in some of those headers are supposed to be
|
||
|
|
mangled.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
It should
|
||
|
|
not be necessary to use the declaration in all header files, but
|
||
|
|
rather only in header files that are used in C++ applications. But
|
||
|
|
experience has taught us that you never know what header files will
|
||
|
|
end up being included, and that one that is not included now, may be
|
||
|
|
included in the future when someone adds an <B>#include</b> statement
|
||
|
|
to a file. To save someone the effort later on of figuring out
|
||
|
|
why their C++ compilation is failing, please include the
|
||
|
|
<B>extern "C" {}</B> declaration in every header file, even if at
|
||
|
|
this point in time you do not believe it will ever be included in
|
||
|
|
the compilation of a C++ application.

|
<H3>
|
||
|
|
<A NAME="global"></A>Global variables</H3>
|
||
|
|
The use of global variables is highly discouraged in Zoltan.
|
||
|
|
In limited cases, static global variables can be tolerated within
|
||
|
|
a source file of an algorithm. However, developers should keep in mind
|
||
|
|
that several Zoltan structures may be used by an application, with
|
||
|
|
each structure using the same algorithm. Thus, global variables set by one
|
||
|
|
invocation of a routine may be reset by other invocations, causing errors
|
||
|
|
in the algorithms. Global variable names may also conflict with variables
|
||
|
|
used elsewhere in the library or application, causing unintended side-effects
|
||
|
|
and complicating debugging. For greatest robustness, developers are asked
|
||
|
|
NOT to use global variables in their algorithms. See <A HREF="dev_add_struct.html">Data
|
||
|
|
Structures</A> for ideas on avoiding the use of global variables.
|
||
|
|
<BR>
|
||
|
|
<H3>
|
||
|
|
<A NAME="functions"></A>Function Names</H3>
|
||
|
|
In order to avoid name conflicts with applications and other libraries,
|
||
|
|
all non-static functions should be prepended with <B>Zoltan_</B><I>.</I>
|
||
|
|
Moreover, function names should, in general, include their module names; e.g.,
|
||
|
|
<b>Zoltan_HSFC_Box_Assign</b> is part of the HSFC module of Zoltan.
|
||
|
|
As a general
|
||
|
|
rule, each new word in a function name should be capitalized (for example,
|
||
|
|
<b>Zoltan_Invert_Lists</b>).
|
||
|
|
Static Zoltan functions do not have to follow these rules.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<H3>
|
||
|
|
<A NAME="par_comm"></A>Parallel Communication</H3>
|
||
|
|
All communication in the Zoltan library should be performed through MPI
|
||
|
|
communication routines. The MPI interface was chosen to enable portability
|
||
|
|
to many different platforms. It will be especially important as the code
|
||
|
|
is extended to heterogeneous computing systems.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>Some useful communication utilities are provided within the library
|
||
|
|
to perform unstructured communication and synchronization. See <A HREF="../ug_html/ug_util_comm.html">Unstructured
|
||
|
|
Communication Utilities</A> and <A HREF="dev_services_parallel.html">Parallel
|
||
|
|
Computing</A>.
|
||
|
|
<BR>
|
||
|
|
<H3>
|
||
|
|
<A NAME="memory1"></A>Memory Management</H3>
|
||
|
|
It is strongly suggested that all memory allocation in the library is handled
|
||
|
|
using the functions supplied in <I>Utilities/Memory</I>. Use of these functions
|
||
|
|
will make debugging and maintenance of the library much easier as the library
|
||
|
|
gets larger. See <A HREF="../ug_html/ug_util_mem.html">Memory Management Utilities</A> for
|
||
|
|
more information on these utilities.<p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For memory that is returned by Zoltan to an application, however, special
|
||
|
|
memory allocation functions must be used to maintain compatibility with
|
||
|
|
both C and Fortran90 applications. See <a href="dev_add_memory.html">
|
||
|
|
Memory Management in Zoltan Algorithms</a> for more
|
||
|
|
information. <p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
One of the few data types specified for use in the Zoltan interface is the
|
||
|
|
<a href="../ug_html/ug_usage.html#Data Types for Object IDs"><b>ZOLTAN_ID_PTR</b></a>
|
||
|
|
type used for global and local object identifiers (IDs). Macros simplifying
|
||
|
|
and providing error checking for
|
||
|
|
<a href="dev_lb_types.html">ID allocation and manipulation</a>
|
||
|
|
are provided.

<BR>
|
||
|
|
<H3>
|
||
|
|
<A NAME="return"></A>Errors, Warnings, and Return Codes</H3>
|
||
|
|
If an error or warning occurs in the Zoltan library,
|
||
|
|
a message should be printed to
|
||
|
|
<i>stderr</i> (using one of the <a href="#ZOLTAN_PRINT">printing macros</a> below),
|
||
|
|
all memory allocated in the current function should be freed, and
|
||
|
|
an <a href="../ug_html/ug_interface.html#Error Codes">error code</a> should be returned.
|
||
|
|
The Zoltan library should never "exit";
|
||
|
|
control should always be returned to the application with an error code.
|
||
|
|
The <a href="../ug_html/ug_interface.html#Error Codes">error codes</a> are defined in <i>include/zoltan_types.h</i>.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Currently, this philosophy is not strictly followed in all portions
|
||
|
|
of Zoltan.
|
||
|
|
Efforts are underway to bring existing code up-to-date, and to follow this
|
||
|
|
rule in all future development.
