Detailed Description

A user action for monitoring G4 runtime at event and run level.

This class implements the event and run action interfaces. The implementation was mostly taken from the previous G4SimTimer design. Results across worker threads are merged in finalize method of the G4SimTimerTool.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The G4SimTimer results will seem nonsensical in MT because the USER time is reported which sums over all threads in the process. The per-event timing can roughly be determined by dividing by the number of threads, but this is only precise when averaged over all events.

Todo:: TODO: Enable the run timer using a run-action (now possible).

◆ getReport()

const Report& G4UA::G4SimTimer::getReport ( ) const

inline

Retrieve my timing results.

Definition at line 77 of file G4SimTimer.h.

78 { return m_results; }

◆ initMessaging()

void AthMessaging::initMessaging ( ) const

privateinherited

Initialize our message level and MessageSvc.

This method should only be called once.

Definition at line 39 of file AthMessaging.cxx.

 {
   m_imsg = Athena::getMessageSvc();
   m_lvl = m_imsg ?
     static_cast<MSG::Level>( m_imsg.load()->outputLevel(m_nm) ) :
     MSG::INFO;
 }

◆ msg() [1/2]

MsgStream & AthMessaging::msg ( ) const

inlineinherited

The standard message stream.

Returns a reference to the default message stream May not be invoked before sysInitialize() has been invoked.

Definition at line 164 of file AthMessaging.h.

 {
   MsgStream* ms = m_msg_tls.get();
   if (!ms) {
     if (!m_initialized.test_and_set()) initMessaging();
     ms = new MsgStream(m_imsg,m_nm);
     m_msg_tls.reset( ms );
   }
  
   ms->setLevel (m_lvl);
   return *ms;
 }

◆ msg() [2/2]

MsgStream & AthMessaging::msg ( const MSG::Level lvl ) const

inlineinherited

The standard message stream.

Returns a reference to the default message stream May not be invoked before sysInitialize() has been invoked.

Definition at line 179 of file AthMessaging.h.

180 { return msg() << lvl; }

◆ msgLvl()

bool AthMessaging::msgLvl ( const MSG::Level lvl ) const

inlineinherited

Test the output level.

Parameters

lvl	The message level to test against

Returns: boolean Indicating if messages at given level will be printed

Return values

true	Messages at level "lvl" will be printed

Definition at line 151 of file AthMessaging.h.

 {
   if (!m_initialized.test_and_set()) initMessaging();
   if (m_lvl <= lvl) {
     msg() << lvl;
     return true;
   } else {
     return false;
   }
 }

◆ setLevel()

void AthMessaging::setLevel ( MSG::Level lvl )

inherited

Change the current logging level.

Use this rather than msg().setLevel() for proper operation with MT.

Definition at line 28 of file AthMessaging.cxx.

 {
   m_lvl = lvl;
 }
