Detailed Description

Containers store sets of tuples of particles. The degree of the tuple (i.e. whether each tuple contains one, two, three or four particles) is constant for each container. That is, a SingletonContainer is a set of single particles, a PairContainer is a set of pairs of particles etc.

These sets can come from a variety of sources, such as

Most basically, containers allow you to get their contents (eg SingletonContainer::get_indexes()) or do an operation on their contents IMP_CONTAINER_FOREACH().

Note
Containers store sets and so are fundamentally unordered.

Member Function Documentation

std::size_t IMP::kernel::Container::get_contents_hash ( ) const

Return a hash that can be used to detect when the contents of the container changed. Store the value and then compare against the version next time to detect if it is different.

Definition at line 64 of file kernel/container_base.h.

virtual bool IMP::kernel::Container::get_is_decomposable ( ) const
virtual

True if the container's contents are not independent from one another, and so it cannot be decomposed into a sum of terms. Examples include connectivity.
