58 /*@{*/
59 /*! \brief
60 * This flag is set if the user has provided the parameter.
62 * This flag is set automatically, and should not be set by the user.
64 #define SPAR_SET 1
65 /*! \brief
66 * If not set, an error is reported if the parameter is not specified by the
67 * user.
69 #define SPAR_OPTIONAL 2
70 /*! \brief
71 * If set, the parameter value can be dynamic, i.e., be different for
72 * different frames.
74 * If set, the parameter value should only be accessed in the update function
75 * of \c gmx_ana_selmethod_t.
76 * The flag is cleared before sel_initfunc() if the value provided is actually
77 * static.
79 #define SPAR_DYNAMIC 4
80 /*! \brief
81 * If set, the parameter value is parsed into sorted ranges.
83 * Can only be specified for integer parameters.
84 * If specified, the value of the parameter (\c gmx_ana_selparam_t::val)
85 * consists of sets of two integers, each specifying a range.
86 * The values give the endpoints of the ranges (inclusive).
87 * The ranges are sorted and overlapping/continuous ranges are merged into
88 * a single range to minimize the number of ranges.
90 * If this flag is specified, \c gmx_ana_selparam_t::nval gives the number of
91 * ranges. \p gmx_ana_selparam_t::nval should be 1 or \ref SPAR_VARNUM should be
92 * specified; other values would lead to unpredictable behavior.
94 #define SPAR_RANGES 8
95 /*! \brief
96 * If set, the parameter can have any number of values.
98 * If specified, the data pointer in \c gmx_ana_selparam_t::val should be NULL;
99 * the memory is allocated by the parameter parser.
100 * The implementation of the method should ensure that the pointer to the
101 * allocated memory is stored somewhere in sel_initfunc();
102 * otherwise, the memory is lost.
104 * The initial value of \c gmx_ana_selparam_t::nval is not used with this flag.
105 * Instead, it will give the number of actual values provided by the user
106 * after the parameters have been parsed.
107 * For consistency, it should be initialized to -1.
109 * Cannot be combined with \ref GROUP_VALUE parameters.
111 #define SPAR_VARNUM 16
112 /*! \brief
113 * If set, the parameter can have a separate value for each atom.
115 * The flag is cleared before sel_initfunc() if the value provided is actually
116 * a single value.
118 * Cannot be combined with \ref POS_VALUE or \ref GROUP_VALUE parameters.
120 #define SPAR_ATOMVAL 32
121 /*! \brief
122 * If set, the parameter takes one of a set of predefined strings.
124 * Can only be specified for a \ref STR_VALUE parameter that takes a single
125 * string.
126 * The data pointer in \c gmx_ana_selparam_t::val should be initialized into an
127 * array of strings such that the first and last elements are NULL, and the
128 * rest give the possible values. For optional values, the second element in
129 * the array should give the default value. The string given by the user is
130 * matched against the beginnings of the given strings, and if a unique match
131 * is found, the first pointer in the array will be initialized to point to
132 * the matching string.
133 * The data pointer can be initialized as a static array; duplication of the
134 * array for multiple instances of the same method is automatically taken care
135 * of.
