EnergyUnit const  requestedEnergyUnit,
ChargeUnit const  requestedChargeUnit,
TemperatureUnit const  requestedTemperatureUnit,
TimeUnit const  requestedTimeUnit,
std::string const &  modelName,
int *const  requestedUnitsAccepted,
Model **const  model 
)
static

Create a new KIM API Model object.

Allocates a new KIM API Model object for use by a Simulator and calls the Model's MODEL_ROUTINE_NAME::Create routine.

Parameters
[in]numberingThe Numbering value used by the Simulator.
[in]requestedLengthUnitThe base LengthUnit requested by the Simulator.
[in]requestedEnergyUnitThe base EnergyUnit requested by the Simulator.
[in]requestedChargeUnitThe base ChargeUnit requested by the Simulator.
[in]requestedTemperatureUnitThe base TemperatureUnit requested by the Simulator.
[in]requestedTimeUnitThe base TimeUnit requested by the Simulator.
[in]modelNameThe name of the Model to be created.
[out]requestedUnitsAcceptedAn integer that is set to true if the Model accepts the Simulator's requested base units, false if the Model will use base units other than those requested by the Simulator.
[out]modelPointer to the newly created Model object.
Note
The value of modelName is required to be a valid C-identifier.
A requested unit of unused indicates that the Simulator will not employ any derived units connected to the associated base unit. This avoids the need for the Simulator to make an arbitrary choice that could cause the Model to not accept its requested base units.
Returns
true if the KIM API is unable to allocate a new log object.
true if numbering or any of the base units are unknown.
true if the requested model's library cannot be found, opened, is of the wrong type, or has some other problem.
true if the Model's MODEL_ROUTINE_NAME::Create routine returns true.
true if the Model's MODEL_ROUTINE_NAME::Create routine does not set the Model's (1) numbering, (2) base units, (3) influence distance, (4) numberOfNeighborLists, (5) cutoff values, (6) modelWillNotRequesNeighborsOfNoncontributingParticles, (7) required ModelRoutineName pointers, or (8) supported species codes.
true if max(cutoffs) > influenceDistance.
true if parameters are registered but not a MODEL_ROUTINE_NAME::Refresh pointer, or vise-versa.
true if a MODEL_ROUTINE_NAME::WriteParameterizedModel pointer is provided but no parameters are registered.
true if the Model's MODEL_ROUTINE_NAME::Create routine does not set the Model's Numbering.
false otherwise.
Postcondition
requestedUnitsAccepted is unchanged and model == NULL if an error occurs.

A unit of unused indicates the the Model does not deal with any quantities whose derived unit involves the corresponding base unit. For example, many models only deal with quantities that are derived from just the energy and length base units (such as force, virial, etc.), and thus should set chargeUnit, temperatureUnit, and timeUnit to unused.
