Algorithm (Workflow)

This function, SGbatchdelete, is designed to manage and delete jobs from a global table, SGBatchIDtable, which is used in batch processing within the SolidGeometry library. The function can either delete all jobs or a specific job based on the input parameters.

Input Parameters

varargin: This is a variable-length input argument list. It allows the function to accept a flexible number of input arguments.

Algorithm Steps

The function begins by declaring a global variable SGBatchIDtable, which stores information about batch jobs.
It calculates the number of entries in SGBatchIDtable using the size function.
The function retrieves the job ID from the input arguments using getfuncparams. If no ID is provided, it defaults to an empty array.
If the ID is empty, the function assumes that all jobs should be deleted:

It creates a local parallel cluster object using parcluster('local').
All jobs in this cluster are deleted using delete(myCluster.Jobs).
The SGBatchIDtable is cleared by setting it to an empty cell array.

If an ID is provided, the function deletes the specific job:

A local parallel cluster object is created again using parcluster('local').
The specific job is found using findJob(c,'ID',ID).
The job is deleted using delete(job).
The corresponding entry in SGBatchIDtable is cleared by setting it to an array of empty cells.

Example Usage

The function can be used in conjunction with other batch processing functions such as SGbatchjob, wait, and SGbatchresult. An example is provided where a job is created, potentially waited on, and then the result is fetched. The SGbatchdelete function can be used to clean up the job afterwards.
