FunctionImplementation class

(Shortest import: from brian2.core.functions import FunctionImplementation)

class brian2.core.functions.FunctionImplementation(name=None, code=None, namespace=None, dependencies=None, availability_check=None, dynamic=False, compiler_kwds=None)

Bases: object

A simple container object for function implementations.

Parameters:

name : str, optional

The name of the function in the target language. Should only be specified if the function has to be renamed for the target language.

code : language-dependent, optional

A language dependent argument specifying the implementation in the target language, e.g. a code string or a dictionary of code strings.

namespace : dict-like, optional

A dictionary of mappings from names to values that should be added to the namespace of a CodeObject using the function.

dependencies : dict-like, optional

A mapping of names to Function objects, for additional functions needed by this function.

availability_check : callable, optional

A function that will be called to check whether the function should be made available (e.g. depending on whether it is supported by the compiler). The function should do nothing if the function is available, or raise a NotImplementedError with a message explaining why it isn’t.

dynamic : bool, optional

Whether this code/namespace is dynamic, i.e. generated for each new context it is used in. If set to True, code and namespace have to be callable with a Group as an argument and are expected to return the final code and namespace. Defaults to False.
