Detailed Description

The OutputReporter Analysis is a wrapper for a TableReporter.

It generates and writes TimeSeriesTables of Output values according to the names listed as properties of the Analysis. OutputReporter enables the AnalyzeTool to report on Outputs via the Analysis interface but backed by a TableReporter. The OutputReporter currently only supports Outputs of type: double, Vec3 and SpatialVec. The OutputReporter will automatically write multiple files- a file for each supported Output type:

  • <results-file-name>.sto (as doubles),
  • <results-file-name>Vec3.sto, and
  • <results-file-name>SpatialVec.sto.

Output paths can be absolute (e.g., /joint/slider/tx|value) or relative to the model (by leaving off the first slash; joint/slider/tx|value). For outputs on the model itself, you can use |com_position, etc. As explained for AbstractInput, the vertical bar denotes the output name.

Note that the internal tables are reset at the beginning of a simulation or AnalyzeTool::run() and does not append results to previous tables.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ Self

This typedef might be useful within the member functions of this class.

This is generated by the OpenSim_DECLARE_*_OBJECT macros.

◆ Super

Use this typedef to refer to the superclass of this class.

Avoid using the explicit type name of the superclass; this would introduce bugs if the superclass is changed.

This is generated by the OpenSim_DECLARE_*_OBJECT macros.

Member Function Documentation

◆ append_output_paths()

int OpenSim::OutputReporter::append_output_paths ( const std::string &  value)
inline

Append an element to the output_paths property.

◆ assign()

void OpenSim::OutputReporter::assign ( Object aObject)
inlineoverride

This allows copy assignment in the Java GUI.

Exceptions
Exceptionif the argument is not of type OutputReporter.

◆ begin()

int OpenSim::OutputReporter::begin ( const SimTK::State &  s)
finaloverrideprotectedvirtual

Reimplemented from OpenSim::Analysis.

◆ clone()

OutputReporter* OpenSim::OutputReporter::clone ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Create a new heap-allocated copy of the concrete object to which this Object refers.

It is up to the caller to delete the returned object when no longer needed. Every concrete object deriving from Object implements this pure virtual method automatically, via the declaration macro it invokes (e.g., OpenSim_DECLARE_CONCRETE_OBJECT()). Note that the concrete class overrides modify the return type to be a pointer to the concrete object; that still overrides the base class method because the return type is covariant with (that is, derives from) Object.

Implements OpenSim::Analysis.

◆ end()

int OpenSim::OutputReporter::end ( const SimTK::State &  s)
finaloverrideprotectedvirtual

Reimplemented from OpenSim::Analysis.

◆ get_output_paths()

const std::string& OpenSim::OutputReporter::get_output_paths ( int  i) const
inline

Get the value of the i-th element of the output_paths property.

◆ getClassName()

static const std::string& OpenSim::OutputReporter::getClassName ( )
inlinestatic

This returns "OutputReporter".

See getConcreteClassName() if you want the class name of the underlying concrete object instead.

This is generated by the OpenSim_DECLARE_*_OBJECT macros.

◆ getConcreteClassName()

const std::string& OpenSim::OutputReporter::getConcreteClassName ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Returns the class name of the concrete Object-derived class of the actual object referenced by this Object, as a string.

This is the string that is used as the tag for this concrete object in an XML file. Every concrete class derived from Object automatically overrides this method via the declaration macro it uses. See getClassName() to get the class name of the referencing (possibly abstract) class rather than the concrete object.

getClassName()

Implements OpenSim::Analysis.

◆ printResults()

int OpenSim::OutputReporter::printResults ( const std::string &  aBaseName,
const std::string &  aDir = "",
double  aDT = -1.0,
const std::string &  aExtension = ".sto" 
)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Print the results of the analysis.

Parameters
aBaseNameBase name of file to which to print the data.
aDirDirectory name.
aDTTime interval between results (linear interpolation is used). If not supplied as an argument or negative, all time steps are printed without interpolation.
aExtensionFile extension if not the default ".sto".
Returns
-1 on error, 0 otherwise.

Reimplemented from OpenSim::Analysis.

◆ safeDownCast()

static OutputReporter* OpenSim::OutputReporter::safeDownCast ( OpenSim::Object obj)
inlinestatic

For use in MATLAB and Python to access the concrete class.

Example: cObj = OutputReporter.safeDownCast(obj). This is equivalent to dynamic_cast<OutputReporter*>(obj) in C++.

◆ set_output_paths()

void OpenSim::OutputReporter::set_output_paths ( int  i,
const std::string &  value 
)
inline

Set the value of the i-th element of output_paths property.

◆ step()

int OpenSim::OutputReporter::step ( const SimTK::State &  s,
int  setNumber 
)
finaloverrideprotectedvirtual

Reimplemented from OpenSim::Analysis.

◆ upd_output_paths()

std::string& OpenSim::OutputReporter::upd_output_paths ( int  i)
inline

Get a writable reference to the i-th element of the output_paths property.

OpenSim Property, Socket, Output, Input Documentation

◆ output_paths

std::string OpenSim::OutputReporter::output_paths

"The names of Outputs to be reported. To select specific Component Outputs" ", provide its path name. For example, '/jointset/slider/tx|value' is an " "Output for the value of a Coordinate 'tx' belonging to the Joint " "'slider'."

This property appears in XML files under the tag <output_paths>. This property holds a list of objects, and was generated with the OpenSim_DECLARE_LIST_PROPERTY macro; see Property to learn about the property system.
