public PSOCCMesh(GenOpt genOptData)
          throws OptimizerException,
                 java.io.IOException,
                 java.lang.Exception,
                 InputFormatException

Constructor

Parameters:

genOptData - a reference to the GenOpt object.
Note: the object is used as a reference. Hence, the data of GenOpt are modified by this Class.

Throws:

OptimizerException - if an OptimizerException occurs or if the user required to stop GenOpt

SimulationInputException - if an error in writing the simulation input file occurs

java.lang.NoSuchMethodException - if a method that should be invoked could not be found

java.lang.IllegalAccessException - if an invoked method enforces Java language access control and the underlying method is inaccessible

InvocationTargetException - if an invoked method throws an exception

java.lang.Exception - if an I/O error in the simulation input file occurs

java.io.IOException

InputFormatException
