Detailed Description

Cell is the basic container for all the biological information about a cell. It contains the cell-cycle model and all other biological properties such as mutation state, cell type, whether it is undergoing apoptosis or not.

This class should not store any spatial information - cells are linked to space by the AbstractCellPopulation subclasses.

Definition at line 77 of file Cell.hpp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Cell::Cell ( boost::shared_ptr< AbstractCellProperty pMutationState,
AbstractCellCycleModel pCellCycleModel,
AbstractSrnModel pSrnModel = NULL,
bool  archiving = false,
CellPropertyCollection  cellPropertyCollection = CellPropertyCollection() 
)

Create a new cell.

Parameters
pMutationStatethe mutation state of the cell
pCellCycleModelthe cell-cycle model to use to decide when the cell divides. This MUST be allocated using new, and will be deleted when the cell is destroyed.
pSrnModelthe sub-cellular reaction network model. This MUST be allocated using new, and will be deleted when the cell is destroyed. (Defaults to NULL and is replcaed by a new NullSrnModel in the constructr)
archivingwhether this constructor is being called by the archiver - do things slightly differently! (defaults to false)
cellPropertyCollectionthe cell property collection (defaults to NULL)
