vtkProcessGroup

Section: Visualization Toolkit Parallel Classes

Usage

This class is used for creating groups of processes. A vtkProcessGroup is initialized by passing the controller or communicator on which the group is based off of. You can then use the group to subset and reorder the the processes. Eventually, you can pass the group object to the CreateSubController method of vtkMultiProcessController to create a controller for the defined group of processes. You must use the same controller (or attached communicator) from which this group was initialized with.

To create an instance of class vtkProcessGroup, simply invoke its constructor as follows

  obj = vtkProcessGroup
