Detailed Description

Synaptic Connexion.

This is a synaptic connection between two neurons. It uses the SynapseType to determine how it behaves. (non-spiking chemical, spiking chemical, or eletrical). It has a base conductance value that is varied depending on the type of synapse. For example, a spiking chemical synapse increases the conductance to the maximum value when a spike occurs, and then exponentially declines to zero.

float * IntegrateFireSim::Synapses::Connexion::GetDataPointer ( const std::string & strDataType )

virtual

Returns a float pointer to a data item of interest in this object.

This is a generic method used to get a pointer to data variable of interest. It is used by a variety of systems in the simulation. The most prominent are the data charting and stimulus classes. Within this method we associate a variable with a string name. By passing in the name of the data type we are interested in we can recieve back a float pointer to that data type. We can use that to read or set the data item in other classes. For example, the data charting system gets the pointer and then each time it needs to log a data point it reads the value into an array.

Author: dcofer

Date: 2/22/2011

Parameters

strDataType name of the data item for which we are looking.

Returns: float pointer of the data item. If not found then it throws an exception.

Exceptions

If	DataType is not found.

virtual

Set a variable based on a string data type name.

This is a generic method that can be used to set any variable in an AnimatBase object by specifying the name of the variable and a string representation of that data. The GUI uses this method to set data into variables in the simulation when the user changes them in the UI. The value string can be as simple as a float or int, or as complex as an xml packet. It is the developers responsibilty to know what type of data is needed and to process it accordingly.

Author: dcofer

Date: 2/22/2011

Parameters

strDataType	string name of the data type to set.
strValue	The string value of the data. It is up to the developer to determine what this should be. For example, in most cases it is simply a float and you just have to convert it to a float and make the appropriate mutator method call. However, it can be any type of string, including an entire xml packet. It is the developers responsibility to know how to set and process the data as required.
bThrowError	true to throw error if there is a problem. If false then it will not return an error, just return false.

Returns: true if it succeeds, false if it fails.

void IntegrateFireSim::Synapses::Connexion::VerifySystemPointers ( )

virtual

Verify that system pointers have been set correctly.

The system pointers should be set just after an object is created. However, if for some reason it was not then this could cause read/write memory access errors later on because we would be using NULL pointers. This method is called during SetSystemPointers, Load, and Initialize to verify that the pointers for that type of object have been set correctly. We are calling three different places to ensure that it is checked before use. For example, if you are doing a Load call then you want to check it before attempting the load, but there may be an object that does not Load, but only does Initialize. So we need to check it there as well.
