Command: nest::DumpLayerConnections

NEST HelpDesk Command Index NEST Quick Reference
Name:
nest::DumpLayerConnections - prints a list of the connections of the
nodes in the layer to file
Synopsis:
ostream source_layer synapse_model DumpLayerConnections ->
ostream
Examples:
(out.cnn) (w) file layer_node_id /static_synapse PrintLayerConnections close
Description:
Dumps information about all connections of the given type having their source
in the given layer to the given output stream. The data format is one line per
connection as follows:

source_node_id target_node_id weight delay displacement[x,y,z]

where displacement are up to three coordinates of the vector from the source
to the target node. If targets do not have positions (eg. spike recorders
outside any layer), NaN is written for each displacement coordinate.
Parameters:
ostream - open outputstream
source_layer - NodeCollection for layer
synapse_model - synapse model (literal)
Require:
HAVE_LIBNEUROSIM */
Remarks:
For distributed simulations
• this function will dump the connections with local targets only.
• the user is responsible for writing to a different output stream (file)
on each MPI process.
