Index to GrAL Modules

GrAL is partitioned from the beginning into manageable with units with (hopefully) minimized dependencies.

The recommended way of browsing the documentation is by (sub-) module hierarchy.

Here are the separate packages of GrAL:

Basic, non-grid related modules

Configuration module: collect comman make targets and variable, compiler config header etc.
Utilities module: Very basic stuff used by most other modules.
Sequence module: Contains some stuff for handling containers, sequences and algorithms.
ExternalControl module: Controling runtime parameters in a uniform and hierarchical way.
Geometry module: some geometric primitives

Proper GrAL Modules
Intro and concepts documentation
Basic stuff
- GrAL-Base module: Basis generic data structures and algorithms. This module is used by all other GrAL modules.
- GrAL-Testing module. Used to test concrete grid components.
Concrete grid data structures
- GrAL-Complex2D module: A simple 2D grid component for arbitrary polygonal cells
- GrAL-Cartesian2D module: A Cartesian grid component
- GrAL-Triang2D module: A grid component for 2D triangulations
- GrAL-Complex3D module: A grid component for 3D grids with arbitrary cells
- GrAL-Cartesian3D module: A Cartesian grid component for 3D regular grids.
Distributed grids for parallel computing
- GrAL-Partitioning module: Generic components for grid partitioning, including an interface to Metis .
- GrAL-Distributed module: Generic components for distributed grids.
I/O to various formats
- GrAL-GMV-IO module: Components for output to GMV file format (3D and 2D versions).
- GrAL-Geomview-IO module: Class for output to OFF format used by geomview
