Public Member Functions
virtual const char *	name () const =0
	Name of the tag, typically the name of the derived class.

virtual std::string	to_string (unsigned dimension, unsigned index) const
	Given a dimension and index produce a string for output. Default to converting index to a string.

virtual unsigned	to_index (unsigned dimension, const std::string &label) const

Detailed Description

Abstract base class for array dimension tags supplied to the Array template class.

A derived array dimension tag class must provide the name method and tag singleton method as in the following example.

struct MyTag : public phdmesh::ArrayDimTag {
  const char * name() const ;
  static const MyTag & tag();
};

An example implementation of these methods is as follows.

const char * MyTag::name() const
{ static const char my_name[] = "MyTag" ; return my_name ; }

const MyTag & MyTag::tag()
{ static const MyTag my_tag ; return my_tag ; }
