class GlobalCellHandler

Handles all global index queries.

Public Functions

void PushBack(std::shared_ptr<Cell> new_cell)

Adds a new cell to the appropriate category (local or ghost).

Parameters:: new_cell – The cell to add.

Cell &operator[](uint64_t cell_global_index): Returns a reference to a cell given its global cell index.

const Cell &operator[](uint64_t cell_global_index) const: Returns a const reference to a cell given its global cell index.

inline size_t GhostCellCount() const: Returns the the total number of ghost cells.

std::vector<uint64_t> GetGhostGlobalIDs() const: Returns the cell global ids of all ghost cells. These are cells that neighbors to this partition’s cells but are on a different partition.

uint64_t GetGhostLocalID(uint64_t cell_global_index) const: Returns the local storage address of a ghost cell. If the ghost is not truly a ghost then -1 is returned, but is wasteful and therefore the user of this function should implement code to prevent it.
