mgrinit: Initialize 'Rdsm'
In Rdsm: Threads Environment for R

Description Usage Arguments Details Author(s)

View source: R/Rdsm.R

Initializes Rdsm on the given parallel cluster.

1	mgrinit(cls,boost=F,barrback=F)

`cls`	The parallel cluster.
`boost`	Lock functions. If TRUE, `boostlock()` and `boostunlock()` are used; otherwise `backlock()` and `backunlock()`.
`barrback`	If TRUE, the count/sense variables associated with the barrier will be placed in backing store.

Run this from the manager (the R process from which you create the cluster), before creating the shared variables with mgrmakevar. The initialization need be done only once for the life of the cluster.

If you put shared variables in backing store (barrback = TRUE in mgrmakevar()), or if you are on a Windows platform, you must have boost = FALSE.
