- To minimise coding and maximise the sharing of code between the adapter and FloodWorks, the parameters are the same as those in the equivalent FloodWorks parameter file.
- The element list is generic, and should allow adapters to be developed in future for other FloodWorks algorithms such as PDM and KW with a minimum of effort. Other adapters would use the same code to read the INI file. This has resulted in a relatively verbose file. Most of the elements in the file are actually size specifications, indicating the sizes of arrays of parameters.
- The generic approach means there are several elements that will always take the same value in the ISIS adapter but which would have different values in, say, a PDM adapter. 1
Sections
The INI file is in 14 sections as follows:
- General
- InputDimensions
- Inputs
- ControlDimensions
- Controls
- OutputDimensions
- Outputs
- StatesDimensions
- RealParameterDimensions
- RealParameters
- IntegerParameterDimensions
- IntegerParameters
- CharacterParameterDimensions
- CharacterParameters
The sections can be in any order.
