id	This can either be an actual ID or a distance or anything else you want
values	The value of each variable

var_param_name	name of the variable parameter in which the variables were passed
var_ptr	pointer to the field variable

 }

◆ finalize()

void SamplerBase::finalize ( )

protectedvirtual

Finalize the values.

YOU MUST CALL THIS DURING finalize() in the child class!

We have several vectors that all need to be processed in the same way. Rather than enumerate them all, let's just create a vector of pointers and work on them that way.

We now have one sorted vector. The remaining vectors need to be sorted according to that vector. We'll need a temporary vector to hold values as we map them according to the sorted indices. After that, we'll swap the vector contents with the sorted vector to get the values back into the original vector.

Reimplemented in LineMaterialSamplerBase< T >, LineMaterialSamplerBase< Real >, PointSamplerBase, ElementValueSampler, NodalValueSampler, LineFunctionSampler, and SideValueSampler.

◆ initialize()

YOU MUST CALL THIS DURING initialize() in the child class!

◆ setupVariables()

void SamplerBase::setupVariables ( const std::vector< std::string > & variable_names )

protected

You MUST call this in the constructor of the child class and pass down the name of the variables.

Parameters

variable_names The names of the variables. Note: The order of the variables sets the order of the values for addSample()

◆ threadJoin()

void SamplerBase::threadJoin ( const SamplerBase & y )

protectedvirtual

Join the values.

YOU MUST CALL THIS DURING threadJoin() in the child class!

Parameters

y	You must cast the UserObject to your child class type first then you can pass it in here.
