[docs]class MergeAdjacentBarriers(TransformationPass): """Return a circuit with any adjacent barriers merged together. Only barriers which can be merged without affecting the barrier structure of the DAG will be merged. Not all redundant barriers will necessarily be merged, only adjacent barriers are merged. For example, the circuit:: qr = QuantumRegister(3, 'q') circuit = QuantumCircuit(qr) circuit.barrier(qr[0]) circuit.barrier(qr[1]) circuit.barrier(qr) Will be transformed into a circuit corresponding to:: circuit.barrier(qr[0]) circuit.barrier(qr) after one iteration of the pass. These two barriers were not merged by the first pass as they are not adjacent in the initial circuit. The pass then can be reapplied to merge the newly adjacent barriers. """
