Detailed Description

A space to add temporary classes while experimenting without forcing you to create your own module.

No classes should ever be committed as part of the scratch module.

It also provides a good module to write classes in that are used for demonstrating bugs in IMP as developers can easily drop the test classes into their own copy of scratch.

Function Documentation

std::string IMP::scratch::get_data_path ( std::string  file_name)

Return the full path to one of this module's data files.

To read the data file "data_library" that was placed in the data directory of this module, do something like

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

This will ensure that the code works both when IMP is installed or if used via the setup_environment.sh script.

Note
Each module has its own data directory, so be sure to use this function from the correct module.
std::string IMP::scratch::get_example_path ( std::string  file_name)

Return the full path to one of this module's example files.

To read the example file "example_protein.pdb" that was placed in the examples directory of this module, do something like

std::ifstream in(IMP::scratch::get_example_path("example_protein.pdb"));

This will ensure that the code works both when IMP is installed or if used via the setup_environment.sh script.

Note
Each module has its own example directory, so be sure to use this function from the correct module.
std::string IMP::scratch::get_module_version ( )

Return the version of this module, as a string.

Note
This function is only available in Python.
