Operator Reference
get_aop_info (Operator)
get_aop_info
— Return AOP information for operators.
Signature
get_aop_info( : : OperatorName, IndexName, IndexValue, InfoName : InfoValue)
Description
HALCON supports a mechanism to optimize the behavior of automatic operator
parallelization (AOP) for a given hardware of a machine. The
information for this optimization can be determined by the operator
optimize_aop
and can also be partly modified by the operator
set_aop_info
.
To address specific AOP information, the operator's optimization data
is indexed within
a 3-ary hierarchy that can be obtained by query_aop_info
. The
three hierarchy stages are indexed by the operator name, passed in
OperatorName
, the iconic type, and
a parameter string value denoting a special mode or method supported by the
indexed operator. The latter two indices are passed by IndexName
and IndexValue
. IndexName
holds the dimension
identifier whereas IndexValue
holds the index value as returned
in query_aop_info
.
get_aop_info
returns the specific information parts of an operator's
AOP knowledge in InfoValue
if exactly one index per stage was set.
The scope of information is specified by InfoName
and supports
following values:
- 'max_threads'
returns the maximum allowed thread number. If no optimization data is stored,
InfoValue
contains -1. In case the specified operator does not support automatic parallelization, 1 is returned.- 'split_level'
returns all allowed data split levels of the automatic parallelization for this operator, the specified iconic type and parameter value. Possible levels are 'split_tuple' , 'split_channel' , 'split_domain' , and 'split_partial' . If no split level is supported or every level was switched off for the indexed operator an empty string '' is returned. Use
get_operator_info
to query all split levels generally supported by an operator.- 'model'
returns the stored model type. Possible values are 'threshold' , 'linear' , and 'mlp' (see also the description of operator
optimize_aop
). If no optimization data is stored, an empty string is returned.
Execution Information
- Multithreading type: exclusive (runs in parallel only with independent operators).
- Multithreading scope: local (may only be called from the same thread in which the window, model, or tool instance was created).
- Processed without parallelization.
