In the $STUDENT_SRC/components/integrators/cxx directory, type tau_babel_pg -f integrators_IntegratorProxy_Impl.cxx -h integrator_IntegratorPort.hxx -p IntegratorPort -t integrator.IntegratorPort

The usage of the proxy generator is as follows:

Usage: tau_babel_pg <filename> -h <header file> -p <port name> -t <port type> [-f]

The -h option specifies the header file that needs to be included to use the port. Note that this is the same header file that was added to the drivers.CXXDriver component in order to use the integrator.IntegratorPort.

The -p option specifies the name of the port. The generated proxy will have two ports named with the port name given appended with “Provide” and “Use” to distinguish them.

The -t option specifies the C++ type of the port. It can be found by examining the appropriate header file.

The -f option forces overwrite of the _Impl.cc and file _Impl.hh files.

Open integrators_IntegratorProxy_Impl.cxx and look at the code that the proxy generator inserted between the splicer blocks to get a feel for what is really going on.

Now build the proxy by going to $STUDENT_SRC and running make.
