Public Member Functions inherited from sc::Optimize
Optimize (StateIn &)
Restore the state of a Function object.
Optimize (const Ref< KeyVal > &)
The KeyVal constructor reads the following information:
void save_data_state (StateOut &)
Save the base classes (with save_data_state) and the members in the same order that the StateIn CTOR initializes them.
virtual int optimize ()
Do the optimization.
void set_checkpoint ()
Set up for checkpointing.
void set_checkpoint_file (const char *)
void set_function (const Ref< Function > &)
Set the function to be optimized.
void set_max_iterations (int)
Set the iteration limit.
virtual void init ()
Initialize the optimizer.

Public Member Functions inherited from sc::SavableState
SavableState & operator= (const SavableState &)
void save_state (StateOut &)
Save the state of the object as specified by the StateOut object.
void save_object_state (StateOut &)
This can be used for saving state when the exact type of the object is known for both the save and the restore.
virtual void save_vbase_state (StateOut &)
Save the virtual bases for the object.

Public Member Functions inherited from sc::DescribedClass
DescribedClass (const DescribedClass &)
DescribedClass & operator= (const DescribedClass &)

This returns the unique pointer to the ClassDesc corresponding to the given type_info object.
const char * class_name () const
Return the name of the object's exact type.
int class_version () const
Return the version of the class.
virtual void print (std::ostream &=ExEnv::out0()) const
