Documentation of repeated_type and getRepeatedMetaDataByName()

[Deepak_C_R]

Hi,

I was going through the cnn_custom_kernel sample code.

I have found the structure repeated_type and the function getRepeatedMetaDataByName().

But in the header file, the documentation is not explaining properly, It's having only following:

        /*
        Utility function used for retriveing repeated metadata objects by their names
        * \param [in] custom_layer_descriptor descriptor
        * \param [in] name of the metadata as defined in the prototxt parameter
        \returns repeated_type object
        */
        KERNELS_UTILS_API repeated_type getRepeatedMetaDataByName(custom_layer_descriptor desc, const char* name);

Can somebody help me to what getRepeatedMetaDataByName() is doing and the variables in repeated_type ?

Thank You.

Hi,

this function is for retrieving parameters, that might have multiple values.

E.g. "offset: 20, 24". So you get the parameter by name, then get numbers of values, and then retrieve value by  value.
