Detailed Description

ScannerBit interface to Multinest 3.11


Authors (add name and date if you modify):

Types Documentation

typedef scanPtr

typedef Gambit::Scanner::like_ptr scanPtr;

Typedef for the ScannerBit pointer to the external loglikelihood function.

Functions Documentation

function scanner_plugin

scanner_plugin(
    multinest ,
    version(3, 11) 
)

=================================================

Interface to ScannerBit

The constructor to run when the MultiNest plugin is loaded.

The main routine to run for the MultiNest scanner.


TODO: Replace with some wrapper? Maybe not, this is already pretty straightforward, though perhaps a little counterintuitive that the printer is the place to get this information.
