ClusterCreator.H File Reference

The purpose of the cluster creator is 1.) To have a common counting point for getting free IPC keys 2.) For having a common call to create the MPI-side and rendering-side sync'ing objects. This is done by leaving the definition of the create*() functions to specific files. See ClusterBarrierRenderingSide.C, ClusterBarrierMPISide.C, ClusterEventBufferMPISide.C, and ClusterEventBufferRenderingSide.C 3.) The real reason it's nice to have this common call, is that then we can experiment with different implementations of ClusterBarrier easily. More...
