Introduction
============

.. note:: You can find the source code for the SpliceAPI here: http://github.com/fabric-engine/SpliceAPI

The Fabric:Splice C/C++ API, referred to as :dfn:`SPLICECAPI` in this document, is an abstraction layer to the `Fabric Core CAPI <http://documentation.fabric-engine.com/CreationPlatform/latest/HTML/CAPIProgrammingGuide/index.html>`_. The SPLICEAPI provides a simpler way to integrate Fabric Core based functionality into C/C++ hosts applications and wraps lots of the rudimentary facilities. The :dfn:`SPLICECAPI` also supports additional facilities, such as persistence, for example.

Aside from this documentation API you can find a general description of how to integrate Splice into a host application here: :ref:`SPLICEINTEGRATION`. This also includes recommendations for build settings and C defines.

One API, Two Interfaces
-----------------------

:dfn:`SPLICECAPI` is implemented as a pure C API with a thin, inlined C++ interface that makes it easier to use in C++ applications.  This is done to minimize linking issues, as the C linking interface on the platforms that Fabric:Splice supports is much more controlled than the C++ linking interface. The C++ interface is thus purely a C++ programmer convenience; however, it is a big programmer convenience, and as such it is recommended that you use the C++ language interface when possible.  Both interfaces link with exactly the same shared library (DLL).

Since the host application targeted with the :dfn:`SPLICECAPI` are mainly C++ based, when discussing the API in this guide, we will only present the C++ version.

Hello World
============

The sample below shows the most basic use of the SPLICECAPI. This can be used to test the library and establish the right linker settings etc.

.. code-block:: c++

    #include <FabricSplice.h>

    using namespace FabricSplice;

    int main( int argc, const char* argv[] )
    {
      Initialize();

      // create a graph
      DGGraph graph = DGGraph("myGraph");

      // construct a single DG node
      graph.constructDGNode();

      // create an operator
      std::string klCode = "";
      klCode += "operator helloWorldOp() {\n";
      klCode += "  report('Hello World from KL!');\n";
      klCode += "}\n";
      graph.constructKLOperator("helloWorldOp", klCode.c_str());

      // // evaluate the graph
      graph.evaluate();

      Finalize();
      
      return 0;

Global functions 
=========================

The SPLICECAPI provides several global functions. These can be used to initialize the use of the library as well as control the licensing aspects of Fabric:Splice.

.. code-block:: c++

    namespace FabricSplice 
    {
      // Initialize needs to be called before calling into 
      // any other functionality of the SPLICECAPI.
      void Initialize();

      // Finalize needs to be called whenever the host application
      // is finished with accessing the SPLICECAPI.
      void Finalize();

/*SPHINX:logging

.. _logging:

FabricSplice::Logging
=========================

The Logging class provides static methods to redirect the log outputs of the SPLICECAPI. This includes output for KL report statements, KL queueStatusMessage statements as well as KL errors and compiler errors. Furthermore this class provides helper functions for profiling, measuring time and getting access to internal timers. Please refer to the 08_profiling sample in the api samples for an example of that.

Example
---------------------------------

The sample below shows how to use log redirection.

.. code-block:: c++

    #include <FabricSplice.h>

    using namespace FabricSplice;

    void myLogFunc(const char * message, unsigned int length)
    {
      printf("[MyCallback] %s\n", message);
    }

    void myLogErrorFunc(const char * message, unsigned int length)
    {
      printf("[MyCallback] Error: %s\n", message);
    }

    void myCompilerErrorFunc(
      unsigned int row, 
      unsigned int col, 
      const char * file,
      const char * level,
      const char * desc
    ) {
      printf("[MyCallback] KL Error: %s, Line %d, Col %d: %s\n", file, (int)row, (int)col, desc);
    }

    void myKLReportFunc(const char * message, unsigned int length)
    {
      printf("[MyCallback] KL Reports: %s\n", message);
    }

    void myKLStatusFunc(const char * topic, unsigned int topicLength,  const char * message, unsigned int messageLength)
    {
      printf("[MyCallback] KL Status for '%s': %s\n", topic, message);
    }

    int main( int argc, const char* argv[] )
    {
      Initialize();

      // setup the callback functions
      Logging::setLogFunc(myLogFunc);
      Logging::setLogErrorFunc(myLogErrorFunc);
      Logging::setCompilerErrorFunc(myCompilerErrorFunc);
      Logging::setKLReportFunc(myKLReportFunc);
      Logging::setKLStatusFunc(myKLStatusFunc);

      // create a graph
      DGGraph graph = DGGraph("myGraph");

      // create a DG node
      graph.constructDGNode();

      // create a member
      graph.addDGNodeMember("value", "Vec3");

      // create a port
      DGPort port = graph.addDGPort("value", "value", Port_Mode_IO);

      // create an op
      graph.constructKLOperator("testOp");

      // on purpose create a compiler error
      try
      {
        graph.setKLOperatorSourceCode("testOp", "operator testOp(Vec3 value) {adsadsd;}");
      }
      catch(Exception e)
      {
        printf("Caught error: %s\n", e.what());
      }

      // update the operator to report from KL
      graph.setKLOperatorSourceCode("testOp", "operator testOp() { report('my message');}");

      // evaluate will invoke all operators
      // and in this case also call the myKLReportFunc
      graph.evaluate();

      // update the operator to send a status update from KL
      graph.setKLOperatorSourceCode("testOp", "operator testOp() { queueStatusMessage('info', 'nothing going on!');}");

      // evaluate will invoke all operators
      // and in this case also call the myKLStatusFunc
      graph.evaluate();

      Finalize();
      return 0;

/*SPHINX:klparser

.. _klparser:

FabricSplice::KLParser
=========================

The KLParser class provides functionality to parse KL files. It also implements sub-classes for accessing contextual symbols for constants, structs, operators and functions. Using the :ref:`klparser` you can implement code completion tools, analytic tools for KL code, doxygen style documentation generation tools etc.

.. note:: The KLParser will be deprecated after 1.13.0 and replaced by a proper AST representation.

Example
---------------------------------

The sample below shows how to use the :ref:`klparser` for iterating over all defined symbols within a KL file.

.. code-block:: c++

    #include <FabricSplice.h>

    using namespace FabricSplice;

    int main( int argc, const char* argv[] )
    {
      std::string klCode;
      klCode += "struct MyType {\n";
      klCode += "  Float32 x;\n";
      klCode += "  Float32 y;\n";
      klCode += "}\n";
      klCode += "\n";
      klCode += "function MyType(Float64 x, Float64 y) {\n";
      klCode += "  this.x = x;\n";
      klCode += "  this.y = y;\n";
      klCode += "}\n";

      KLParser parser = KLParser::getParser("MyType", "MyType", klCode.c_str());
      for(unsigned int j=0;j<parser.getNbKLSymbols();j++)
      {
        KLParser::KLSymbol s = parser.getKLSymbol(j);
        printf("%03d: '%s' '%s'\n", (int)i, s.typeName(), s.str().c_str());
      }
      return 0;

/*SPHINX:exception

.. _exception:

FabricSplice::Exception
=========================

The Exception is used to catch any errors happening within Fabric:Splice or the Fabric Core from a host application. You may wrap any call to the :dfn:`SPLICECAPI` like this:

Example
---------------------------------

.. code-block:: c++

    try
    {
      ... call to SPLICECAPI ...
    }
    catch(FabricSplice::Exception e)
    {
      printf("Splice Error %s\n", e.what());
    }

It's recommended to wrap the try and catch calls into macros, so that you can deploy them easily anywhere you use the :dfn:`SPLICECAPI`.

FabricSplice::DGGraph
=========================

The DGGraph is the dependency graph container in the SPLICECAPI. It hosts KL operators, FabricCore elements such as dependency graph nodes, and provides access to :ref:`dgport` objects. The DGGraph class wraps the functionality of the lower level FabricCore CAPI and provides persistence functionality to store/restore the computation setup to/from files or strings. The class outline can be found further down on this page.
