Detailed Description

This object is held as the "value" in the Teuchos::ParameterList std::map.

This structure holds a Teuchos::any value and information on the status of this parameter (isUsed, isDefault, etc.). The type of parameter is chosen through the templated Set/Get methods.

std::ostream & Teuchos::ParameterEntry::leftshift	(	std::ostream &	os,
		bool	printFlags = `true`
	)		const

Output a non-list parameter to the given output stream.

The parameter is followed by "[default]" if it is the default value given through a Set method. Otherwise, if the parameter was unused (not accessed through a Get method), it will be followed by "[unused]". This function is called by the "std::ostream& operator<<".
