icetDataReplicationGroup(3) IceT Reference icetDataReplicationGroup(3) NAME
icetDataReplicationGroup -- define data replication. Synopsis #include <IceT.h> void icetDataReplicationGroup( IceTInt size, const IceTInt * processes ); Description IceT has the ability to take advantage of geometric data that is replicated among processes. If a group of processes share the same geome- try data, then IceT will split the region of the display that the data projects onto among the processes, thereby reducing the total amount of image composition work that needs to be done. Each group can be declared by calling icetDataReplicationGroup and defining the group of processes that share the geometry with the local process. size indicates how many processes belong to the group, and processes is an array of ids of processes that belong to the group. Each process that belongs to a particular group must call icetDataReplicationGroup with the exact same list of processes in the same order. You can alternately use icetDataReplicationGroupColor to select data replication groups. By default, each process belongs to a group of size one containing just the local processes (i.e. there is no data replication). Errors ICET_INVALID_VALUE processes does not contain the local process rank. Warnings None. Bugs IceT assumes that icetDataReplicationGroup is called with the exact same parameters on all processes belonging to a given group. Likewise, IceT also assumes that all processes have called icetBoundingVertices or icetBoundingBox with the exact same parameters on all processes belonging to a given group. These requirements are not strictly enforced, but failing to do so may cause some of the geometry to not be rendered.

icetGLDrawFrame(3) IceT Reference icetGLDrawFrame(3) NAME
icetGLDrawFrame -- renders and composites a frame using OpenGL Synopsis #include <IceTGL.h> void icetGLDrawFrame( void ); Description Initiates a frame draw using the current OpenGL transformation matrices (modelview and projection). Before IceT may render an image, the tiled display needs to be defined (using icetAddTile), the drawing function needs to be set (using icetGLDrawCallback), and composite strategy must be set (using icetStrategy). The single image sub-strategy may also optionally be set (using icetSingleImageStrategy). All processes in the current IceT context must call icetGLDrawFrame for it to complete. The OpenGL projection matrix and modelview matrix must be set using glLoadMatrix or a number of other functions. Likewise, the OpenGL back- ground color must be set with glClearColor. IceT will use the matrices to determine what pixels need to be rendered and composited. IceT will also modify the projection matrix to project onto (or in between) tiles. If ICET_GL_DISPLAY is enabled, then the fully composited image is written back to the OpenGL framebuffer for display. It is the applica- tion's responsibility to synchronize the processes and swap front and back buffers. If the OpenGL background color is set to something other than black, ICET_GL_DISPLAY_COLORED_BACKGROUND should also be enabled. Displaying with ICET_GL_DISPLAY_COLORED_BACKGROUND disabled may be slightly faster (depending on graphics hardware) but can result in black rectangles in the background. If ICET_GL_DISPLAY_INFLATE is enabled and the size of the renderable window (determined by the current OpenGL viewport) is greater than that of the tile being displayed, then the image will first be ``inflated'' to the size of the actual display. This inflation will be assisted by texture hardware if ICET_GL_DISPLAY_INFLATE_WITH_HARDWARE is on. If ICET_GL_DISPLAY_INFLATE is disabled, the image is drawn at its original resolution at the lower left corner of the display. The image remaining in the frame buffer is undefined if ICET_GL_DISPLAY is disabled or the process is not displaying a tile. Errors ICET_INVALID_OPERATION Raised if the drawing callback has not been set. Also can be raised if icetDrawFrame is called recursively, probably from within the drawing callback. ICET_OUT_OF_MEMORY Not enough memory left to hold intermittent frame buffers and other temporary data. icetGLDrawFrame may also indirectly raise an error if there is an issue with the strategy or callback. Warnings None. Bugs If compositing with color blending on, the image returned may have a black background instead of the background_color requested. This can be corrected by blending the returned image over the desired background. This will be done for you if the ICET_CORRECT_COLORED_BACKGROUND is on.
