class | Gyoto::SmartPointer< Gyoto::Metric::Hayward > |
Metric of a regular rotating black hole or naked worm-hole.
This is a regular rotating extension of Hayward's metric.
The metric reads: ds^2=-(1-2*M(r)*r/Sigma)*dt^2-(4*a*M(r)*sin^2(theta)/Sigma)*dt*dphi+(Sigma/Delta)*dr^2+(Sigma)*dtheta^2+sin^2(theta)*[r^2+a^2+2*a^2*r*M(r)*sin^2(theta)/Sigma]*dphi^2, where: Sigma=r^2+a^2*cos^2(theta) Delta=r^2-2*M(r)*r+a^2 M(r)=M*abs(r)^3/(abs(r)^3+2*m*b^2), m being the mass of the black hole seen at infinity and b a magnetic charge parameter.

A subcontractor builds an object upon order from the Factory.
Various classes need to provide a subcontractor to be able to instantiate themselves upon order from the Factory. A subcontractor is a function (often a static member function) which accepts a pointer to a FactoryMessenger as unique parameter, communicates with the Factory using this messenger to read an XML description of the object to build, and returns this objet. SmartPointee::Subcontractor_t* is just generic enough a typedef to cast to and from other subcontractor types: Astrobj::Subcontractor_t, Metric::Subcontractor_t, Spectrum::Subcontractor_t. A subcontractor needs to be registered using the relevant Register() function: Astrobj::Register(), Metric::Register(), Spectrum::Register().

Yield circular velocity at a given position.
Give the velocity of a massive particle in circular orbit at the given position projected onto the equatorial plane. Such a velocity may not exist everywhere (or anywhere) for a given metric. This method is intended to be used by Astrobj classes such as Torus or ThinDisk.
If keplerian_ is set to true, this method should return the Keplerian velcity instead (derived classes should ensure this, see KerrBL::circularVelocity() for instance).
The default implementation throws an error if keplerian_ is set to false.

Fill the XML element for this Object.
The base implementation simply calls fillProperty() for each Property defined for the Object.
Derived classes should avoid overriding fillElement(). It may make sense occasionally, e.g. to make sure that the metric is output first.
To customize how a given Property is rendered, it is better to override fillProperty().
If this method is overridden, the implementation should in general call fillElement() on the direct base.
Reimplemented in Gyoto::Astrobj::Complex, Gyoto::Spectrometer::Complex, and Gyoto::Scenery.

virtualinherited |
Output a single Property to XML.
The base implementation decides what to do based on the p.type. The format matches how setParameters() an setParameter() would interpret the XML descition.
Overriding this method should be avoided, but makes sense in some cases (for instance Screen::fillProperty() selects a different unit for Distance based on its magnitude, so that stellar sizes are expressed in solar radii while smaller sizes can be expressed in meters and larger sizes in parsecs).
Overriding implementation should fall-back on calling the implementation in the direct parent class:

Whether this class is thread-safe.
Return True if this object is thread-safe, i.e. if an instance and its clone can be used in parallel threads (in the context of Scenery::raytrace()). Known objects which are not thread-safe include Lorene metrics and everything from the Python plug-in.
The default implementation considers that the class itself is thread safe and recurses into the declared properties to check whether they are safe too. Classes that abide to the Object/Property paradigm and are themselves thread-safe have nothing special to do.
Objects that clone children in their copy constructor that are not declared as properties must take these children into account.
Classes that are never thread-safe must declare it. It acn be easily done using GYOTO_OBJECT_THREAD_SAFETY in the class declaration and GYOTO_PROPERTY_THREAD_UNSAFE in the class definition.

Main loop for parsing Properties from XML description.
This function queries the FactoryMessenger for elements to parse, and tries to matche each element to a Property to set it accordingly. Any class that tries to be buildable from XML must supply a subcontractor (for base classes such as Metric, Astrobj, Spectrum and Spectrometer, it is done as a template that must be specialized for each class). This subcontractor typically looks somewhat like this:
Although this is discouraged, it is possible to override the following functions to customize how XML entities are parsed: - setParameters() if low-level access to the FactoryMessenger is required; - setParameter(std::string name, std::string content, std::string unit) to interpret an entity that does not match a Property (e.g. alternative name); - setParameter(Gyoto::Property const &p, std::string const &name, std::string const &content, std::string const &unit) to change how a Property is interpreted.

Yield ZAMO velocity at a given position.

Numerical tuning parameter.
Ensure that delta (the numerical integration step) is never larger than a fraction of the distance between the current location and the center of the coordinate system.
For investigations close to the event horizon, 0.5 is usually fine. If high accuracy is needed long after deflection (weak lensing), then this must be smaller. A good test is to look at a MinDistance map for a FixedStar: it must be smooth.
