Function Documentation

std::string IMP::parallel::get_data_path

(

std::string

file_name

)

Each module has its own data directory, so be sure to use the version of this function in the correct module. To read the data file "data_library" that was placed in the data directory of module "mymodule", do something like

std::ifstream in(IMP::mymodule::get_data_path("data_library"));

This will ensure that the code works when IMP is installed or used via the tools/imppy.sh script.

std::string IMP::parallel::get_example_path

(

std::string

file_name

)

Each module has its own example directory, so be sure to use the version of this function in the correct module. For example to read the file example_protein.pdb located in the examples directory of the IMP::atom module, do

IMP::atom::read_pdb(IMP::atom::get_example_path("example_protein.pdb", model));

This will ensure that the code works when IMP is installed or used via the tools/imppy.sh script.
