[Einstein Toolkit] #456: Ensure functions are not defined twice

#456: Ensure functions are not defined twice -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: hinder | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- When multiple source files define non-static functions with the same name, these are all compiled together into the resulting executable. Which one gets called is not predictable by the user. This can happen if a user copies a thorn, modifies it slightly, and compiles both thorns into the same configuration. This can lead to *very* difficult-to-find bugs, and it would be helpful if Cactus was able to prevent this, or at least to mitigate the problem. At the CST level, Cactus should be able to tell that there are two thorns which schedule functions with the same name. At the moment, this is not caught. I propose that this should be a fatal error, as there is no way to predict which function will be called eventually. This will solve the problem in some cases, but not in the case where there are instances of duplicate function names which are not scheduled. It should be possible to scan the object/library files using standard tools (nm etc) to determine if there are multiple globally visible symbols with the same name. There might even be standard tools for this purpose. Doing this in a portable way might not be straightforward, but having an implementation for Linux, for example, would catch the majority of cases. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/456> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #447: simfactory 1.0 always uses -L 3

#447: simfactory 1.0 always uses -L 3 ----------------------------------------------+----------------------------- Reporter: alexander.beck-ratzka@… | Owner: eschnett Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: SimFactory | Version: Keywords: | ----------------------------------------------+----------------------------- The perl version of simfactory always uses the debugging loglevel for simulations. The loglevel of a cactus simulation can be specified by setting -L to a value between 0 (none) and 3 (debug). While the cactus default is 0, simfactory sets it to 3. The debug loglevel could lead to huge output files. I would suggest to set it to the cactus default, and allow a user to increase it. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/447> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

#346: Detect when --reconfig is necessary ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Reporter: eschnett | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: Other | Version: Keywords: | ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Cactus sometimes outputs an error message that a configuration needs to be reconfigured. Simfactory should notice this, and then automatically build with --reconfig. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/346> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #229: Using a nonexistent header file should lead to an error message

#229: Using a nonexistent header file should lead to an error message --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Reporter: hinder | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Keywords: | --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- If I have the following in my interface.ccl, USES INCLUDE: vectors.h but no thorn in my thornlist provides this header file, there is no error at compile time. Further, if I #include this file in my source file, an empty file is included, which means that again I don't get an error. The first indication that something is wrong is that the contents of the header file are not available, which makes debugging the problem with the thornlist very confusing. I propose that the CST should emit a fatal error if one of the thorns tries to use a header file which does not exist. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/229> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #519: Add all ET repositories to TRAC

#519: Add all ET repositories to TRAC ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: hinder | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: EinsteinToolkit trac | Version: Keywords: | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- TRAC provides integration with version control systems. It has a list of repositories, and specific changesets and files can be referred to in ticket comments and wiki pages using a convenient syntax. Several ET repositories have been added already. I think this feature is useful, and that the remaining repositories should be added. It would be nice if the links were easier to type. I propose omitting the arrangement name from the repositories, as all thorn names are probably unique, and avoiding spaces which require extra quoting. We have several repositories in Git and Mercurial. It would be nice to include those as well. I believe that there are TRAC plugins to accomplish this in the same way as for SVN. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/519> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #650: User is not asked for Mercurial authentication information initially

#650: User is not asked for Mercurial authentication information initially ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: hinder | Owner: eric9 Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: GetComponents | Version: Keywords: | ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ When running GetComponents without the "-a" (anonymous) option, the user is asked initially for authentication information for any authenticated repositories. However, the Carpet repository is not included in this list. This leads to the authentication prompt much later when Carpet is actually being checked out, and here it is not possible to say "anonymous". I believe the problem occurs on line 846 of GetComponents: {{{ # if AUTH_URL is defined we want to find the username: if ( defined( $component->{AUTH_URL} ) and ( $component->{TYPE} eq 'cvs' or $component->{TYPE} eq 'svn' or $component->{TYPE} eq 'darcs' or $component->{TYPE} eq 'git' ) ) { }}} where Mercurial (hg) is not included in that list. The attached (untested) patch adds hg to that list, but I don't know if this is sufficient to fix the problem. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/650> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit
