      34             : 
      35             :   Plumed.h and Plumed.c contain the external plumed interface, which is used to
      36             :   integrate it with MD engines. This interface is very general, and is expected
      37             :   not to change across plumed versions. Plumed.c also implements a dummy version
      38             :   of the interface, so as to allow a code to be fully linked even if the plumed
      39             :   library is not available yet. These files could be directly included in the official
      40             :   host MD distribution. In this manner, it will be sufficient to link the plumed
      41             :   library at link time (on all systems) or directly at runtime (on systems where
      42             :   dynamic loading is enabled) to include plumed features.
      43             : 
      44             :   Notice that in PLUMED 2.5 this interface has been rewritten in order to allow
      45             :   more debugging features and a better behavior in multithread environments.
      46             :   The interface is almost perfectly backward compatible, although it implements
      47             :   a few additional functions. See more details below.
      48             : 
      49             :   A further improvement has been made in PLUMED 2.8, where the interface has
      50             :   been modified to allow dynamic type checking. See more details below.
      51             : 
      52             :   Why is Plumed.c written in C and not C++? The reason is that the resulting Plumed.o
      53             :   needs to be linked with the host MD code immediately (whereas the rest of plumed
      54             :   could be linked a posteriori). Imagine the MD code is written in FORTRAN: when we
      55             :   link the Plumed.o file we would like not to need any C++ library linked. In this
      56             :   manner, we do not need to know which C++ compiler will be used to compile plumed.
      57             :   The C++ library is only linked to the "rest" of plumed, which actually uses it.
      58             :   Anyway, Plumed.c is written in such a manner to allow its compilation also in C++
      59             :   (C++ is a bit stricter than C). This will
      60             :   allow e.g. MD codes written in C++ to just incorporate Plumed.c (maybe renamed into
      61             :   Plumed.cpp), without the need of configuring a plain C compiler.
      62             : 
      63             :   Plumed interface can be used from C, C++ and FORTRAN. Everything concerning plumed

      65             :   (struct \ref plumed), in C++ by a class (PLMD::Plumed) and in FORTRAN by a
      66             :   fixed-length string (CHARACTER(LEN=32)). Obviously C++ can use both struct
      67             :   and class interfaces, but the second should be preferred since it will automatically take
      68             :   care of objects constructions and destructions. The reference interface
      69             :   is the C one, whereas FORTRAN and C++ interfaces are implemented as wrappers

      73             :   avoid potential name clashes. Notice that the entire plumed library
      74             :   is implemented in C++, and it is hidden inside the PLMD namespace.

      85             :   required for the entire simulation (which covers many of the practical
      86             :   applications with conventional MD codes) it is possible to take advantage
      87             :   of a global interface, which is implicitly referring to a unique global instance.
      88             :   The global object should still be initialized and finalized properly.
      89             :   This global object is obviously not usable in a multithread context. In addition,

      91             :   allowed but discouraged.
      92             : 
      93             :   As of PLUMED 2.5, the interface contains a reference counter that allows
      94             :   for a better control of plumed initializations and deallocations.
      95             :   This is particularly useful for the C++ interface that now
      96             :   behaves similarly to a primitive shared pointer and can be thus copied.
      97             :   In other languages, to use the reference counter correctly it is sufficient to

     294             :   If you use C++ and you are calling the C++ interface (e.g. \ref Plumed::cmd), as of PLUMED 2.5 we implemented a complete

     296             :   - Instead of throwing an exception, PLUMED will return (using a \ref plumed_nothrow_handler) the details about the occurred error.

     304             :   the \ref Plumed::cmd interface, and thus behaves in an equivalent manner. With previous versions of this header
     305             :   one could have encountered problems with stack unwinding performed during exception handling in the C layer.

     351             : 
     352             :   The wrappers in PLUMED 2.5 have been completely rewritten with several improvements.
     353             :   The interface is almost perfectly backward compatible, although the behavior of C++ constructors
     354             :   has been modified slightly.
     355             :   In addition, a few new functions are introduced (explicitly marked in the documentation).
     356             :   As a consequence, if your code uses some of the new functions, you will not be able
     357             :   to link it directly with an older PLUMED library (though you will still be able to load
     358             :   an older PLUMED library at runtime). In addition, the reference counter changes slightly
     359             :   the behavior of the C++ methods used to interoperate with C and FORTRAN.
     360             : 
     361             :   An important novelty is in the way the runtime loader is implemented.
     362             :   In particular, the loader works also if the symbols of the main executable are not exported.
     363             :   The proper functions from the kernel are indeed searched explicitly now using `dlsym`.
     364             : 
     365             :   Some additional features can be enabled using suitable environment variables. In particular:
     366             :   - `PLUMED_LOAD_DEBUG` can be set to report more information about the loading process.
     367             :   - `PLUMED_LOAD_NAMESPACE` can be set to `LOCAL` to load the PLUMED kernel in a separate
     368             :     namespace. The default is global namespace, which is the same behavior of PLUMED <=2.4,
     369             :     and is consistent with what happens when linking PLUMED as a shared library.
     370             :   - `PLUMED_LOAD_NODEEPBIND` can be set to load the PLUMED kernel in not-deepbind mode. Deepbind
     371             :     mode implies that the symbols defined in the library are preferred to other symbols with the same name.
     372             :     Only works on systems supporting `RTLD_DEEPBIND` and is mostly for debugging purposes.
     373             : 
     374             :   Another difference is that the implementation of the wrappers is now completely contained in the `Plumed.h`
     375             :   file. You can see that the `Plumed.c` is much simpler now and just includes `Plumed.h`. With a similar
     376             :   procedure you could compile the wrappers directly into your code making it unnecessary to link
     377             :   the libplumedWrapper.a library. The corresponding macros are still subject to change and are not documented here.
     378             : 
     379             :   As written above, the plumed object now implements a reference counter.  Consider the following example
     380             : \verbatim
     381             :   plumed p=plumed_create();

     383             :   plumed q=plumed_create_reference(p);
     384             :   plumed_finalize(p);
     385             : // at this stage, object q still exists

     387             :   plumed_finalize(q);
     388             : // now plumed has been really finalized
     389             : \endverbatim
     390             : 
     391             :   In other words, every \ref plumed_create, \ref plumed_create_dlopen, \ref plumed_create_reference,
     392             :   \ref plumed_create_reference_f, and \ref plumed_create_reference_v call must be matched by a \ref plumed_finalize.
     393             :   Notice that in C++ whenever an object goes out of scope the reference counter
     394             :   will be decreased. In addition, consider that conversion from C/FORTRAN/void* to C++ implies calling a C++ constructor, that
     395             :   is increases the number of references by one. Converting from C++ to C/FORTRAN/void* instead does not call any constructor,
     396             :   that is the number of references is unchanged.
     397             : 
     398             :   The change in the behavior of C++ constructors means that the following code will behave in a backward incompatible manner:

     401             :   plumed_cmd(p,"init",NULL);
     402             :   Plumed q(p);
     403             :   plumed_finalize(p);
     404             : // at this stage, object q still exists with PLUMED 2.5
     405             : // on the other hand, with PLUMED 2.4 object q refers to an

     409             : 
     410             :   Another difference is that the value of the variable `PLUMED_KERNEL` is read every time a new
     411             :   plumed object is instantiated. So, you might even use it to load different plumed versions
     412             :   simultaneously, although the preferred way to do this is using the function \ref plumed_create_dlopen.
     413             :   Notice that if you want to load multiple versions simultaneously you should load them in a local namespace.
