Detailed Description

template<class Scalar>
class Thyra::VectorSpaceFactoryBase< Scalar >

Abstract interface for objects that can create vector spaces of a specified dimension.

The primary role that a VectorSpaceFactoryBase object takes is defined in the documentation for the class VectorSpaceBase and is related to the domain space of MultiVectorBase objects. However, this is a general factory interface class that can be used to create almost any VectorSpaceBase object just given a dimension.

const [pure virtual]

Create a vector space of the given dimension.

Parameters:

dim

[in] The dimension of the vector space to create.

Preconditions:

• dim > 0 (throw std::invalid_argument).

Postconditions:

• return.get() != NULL
• return->dim() == dim

Returns:

Returns a smart reference-counted pointer to a dynamically allocated vector space object that can be used to create vectors and multi-vectors.
