60 * Initializes the \Gromacs library for command-line use.
62 * \param[in] argc argc value passed to main().
63 * \param[in] argv argv array passed to main().
64 * \returns Reference to initialized program context object.
66 * This function is tailored for use in command line applications.
67 * For other usage, combination of gmx::init() and gmx::setProgramContext()
68 * provides more flexible initialization alternatives.
69 * Unlike gmx::init(), calls to this method cannot be nested.
71 * The command line arguments are communicated so that they can be
72 * parsed on each processor.
73 * \p argc and \p argv are passed to gmx::init(); see there for additional
74 * discussion. This method does not place any additional limitations, but
75 * generally there should be no need to pass NULL values.
77 * Does not throw. Terminates the program on out-of-memory error.
79 * This method is not thread-safe, since it is intended to be the first method
80 * called. See setProgramContext() for additional discussion.

88 * Deinitializes the \Gromacs library after initForCommandLine().
90 * Calls gmx::finalize() and additionally undoes the work done by
91 * initForCommandLine().
93 * \see gmx::finalize()

96 void finalizeForCommandLine();
98 * Handles an exception and deinitializes after initForCommandLine.
100 * \param[in] ex Exception that is the cause for terminating the program.
101 * \returns Return code to return from main().
103 * This method should be called as the last thing before terminating the
104 * program because of an exception. See processExceptionAtExit() for details.
105 * Additionally this method undoes the work done by initForCommandLine.

111 * Implements a main() method that runs a single module.
113 * \param argc \c argc passed to main().
114 * \param argv \c argv passed to main().
115 * \param module Module to run.
117 * This method allows for uniform behavior for binaries that only
118 * contain a single module without duplicating any of the
119 * implementation from CommandLineModuleManager (startup headers,
120 * common options etc.).
122 * The signature assumes that \p module construction does not throw
123 * (because otherwise the caller would need to duplicate all the
124 * exception handling code). It is possible to move the construction
125 * inside the try/catch in this method using an indirection similar to
126 * TrajectoryAnalysisCommandLineRunner::runAsMain(), but until that is
127 * necessary, the current approach leads to simpler code.

189 * \param mainFunction The main()-like method to wrap.
191 * This method creates a dummy command line module that does its
192 * processing by calling \p mainFunction. It then runs this module as with
193 * gmx::runCommandLineModule().
194 * This allows the resulting executable to handle common options and do
195 * other common actions (e.g., startup headers) without duplicate code
196 * in the main methods.
198 * \p mainFunction should call parse_common_args() to process its command-line
