Detailed Description

template<class R, class Q = R, class P = std::map<size_t, typename R::value_type>>
class molpro::linalg::itsolv::SolverFactory< R, Q, P >

Factory for creating instances of specific solver implementations from the corresponding Options object.

Note: The factory has to be instantiated for specific R,Q and P vector types

Instantiating the factory

Assuming user defined containers are declared in UserDefinedVectors.h than the user can include the following explicit instantiation for the factory in a .cpp file,

// "solver_factory_instantiation.cpp"
#include <molpro/linalg/itsolv/SolverFactory-implementation.h>
#include "UserDefinedVectors.h"
 
namespace molpro::linalg::itsolv {
template class SolverFactory<UserDefinedRvector, UserDefinedQvector, UserDefinedPvector>;
}

Using the factory

#include <molpro/linalg/itsolv/SolverFactory.h>
#include "UserDefinedVectors.h"
#include "read_user_options.h"
using molpro::linalg::itsolv;
using R = UserDefinedRVector;
using Q = UserDefinedQVector;
using P = UserDefinedPVector;
 
int main(int argn, char** argv){
     std::shared_ptr<Options> options = read_user_options_general(argn, argv);
     auto handlers = std::make_shared<ArrayHandlers<R, Q, P>>();
     auto factory = SolverFactory<R, Q, P>{};
 
     std::unique_ptr<IterativeSolver> solver = factory.create(*options, handlers);
     solver->solve();
 
     // Or, if a specific solver type is needed
     std::shared_ptr<ILinearEigensystemOptions> eigen_options = read_user_options_eigen(argn, argv);
     std::shared_ptr<ILinearEigensystem> eigen_solver = factory.create(*eigen_options, handlers);
     eigen_solver.solve();
     user_defined_print(eigen_solver.eigenvalues());
 
     // Or with options provided as a key1=value1,key2=value2,.. string, and using a free-function factory call, and
using default handlers where these support the given R, Q, P: auto eigen_solver = create_LinearEigensystem<R, Q,
P>("max_size_qspace=6, nroots=3, convergence_threshold=1e-4"); eigen_solver.solve();
 
     // The factory functions for non-linear equations and optimisation take
     // an additional argument specifying the method:
     auto minimiser = create_Optimize<R, Q, P>("BFGS","convergence_threshold=1e-5");
}
