Member Function Documentation

void Aei::init

(

)

[private]

Initialization.

Inits the parsing automata states and variables. Reused in both constructors.

void Aei::initFromFile

(

string

fn

)

Hardcoded beginning of session.

For debugging purposes.

void * Aei::SearchInThreadWrapper

(

void *

instance

)

[static, private]

Wrapper around Aei::searchinThread().

Declared as static so it can be threaded.

void Aei::sendId

(

)

const [private]

Send id information.

Uses information from ID_ macros - ID_AUTHOR, IT_NAME, ID_VERSION.

void Aei::startSearch

(

const string &

arg

)

[private]

Initiates thread creation and search start.

Parameters:

arg

Search arguments - e.g. ponder, infinite, etc.

void Aei::stopSearch

(

bool

fromThread = false

)

[private]

Stop search.

Gives request to stop the search. Waits for the search thread to join.

Parameters:

fromThread

If true, method is called from thread -> doesn't need to join the thread otherwise does nothing ( e.g. when makemove stopped go ponder)

Member Data Documentation

pthread_t Aei::engineThread_ [private]

AeiRecordList Aei::records_ [private]

Records of aei finite automata.

string Aei::response_ [private]

Response to be send through communication channel.

aeiState_e Aei::state_ [private]

State of the automata.
