SerialParam-class: Enable serial evaluation
In BiocParallel: Bioconductor facilities for parallel evaluation

Description Usage Arguments Constructor Methods Author(s) See Also Examples

This class is used to parameterize serial evaluation, primarily to facilitate easy transition from parallel to serial code.

1 2	SerialParam(stop.on.error = TRUE, log = FALSE, threshold = "INFO", logdir = NA_character_, progressbar = FALSE)

`stop.on.error`	A `logical` determining behavior on error; see `SnowParam`.
`log`	`logical(1)` Enable logging; see `SnowParam`.
`threshold`	`character(1)` Logging threshold; see `SnowParam`.
`logdir`	`character(1)` Log files directory. When not provided, log messages are returned to stdout.
`progressbar`	`logical(1)` Enable progress bar (based on plyr:::progress_text).

SerialParam():

Return an object to be used for serial evaluation of otherwise parallel functions such as bplapply, bpvec.

The following generics are implemented and perform as documented on the corresponding help page (e.g., ?bpworkers): bpworkers. bpisup, bpstart, bpstop, are implemented, but do not have any side-effects.

register for registering parameter classes for use in parallel evaluation.
