[Einstein Toolkit] #773: McLachlan dissipation should be disabled by default

#773: McLachlan dissipation should be disabled by default -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: hinder | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Other | Version: Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- In the current version of McLachlan, the parameter apply_dissipation is set to "always" by default. The corresponding "epsdiss" is set to 0 by default. The dissipation calculation in McLachlan is expensive due to the way that it iterates over variables. Use of the Dissipation thorn or similar is usually much faster. I had not realised that apply_dissipation was "always" by default. I think it should be "never". OK to change?

#1130: Cactus tutorial on cactus website ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: jtao@… | Type: defect Status: new | Priority: major Milestone: | Component: Other Version: | Keywords: ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Following the instructions on the Cactus website will not lead to a successful run due to the introduction to ash. This frustrates new Cactus users. I would suggest to add !BRANCH = Cactus_4.0.0 to the thorn list to make it work at least. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1130> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #1128: Require C99 for Cactus C thorns

#1128: Require C99 for Cactus C thorns -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: hinder | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- According to Erik, all systems that we need to support have good support for C99. Many thorns use some features of C99, and it is a common error to try to compile these without using the C99 options to a compiler. The resulting error messages can be confusing. In order to provide a common language platform for Cactus thorn writers, we should state that Cactus expects the compiler to have C99 enabled. We should test this during the configure stage and abort with a good error message if it is not the case. Thorn writers can then assume the standard features of C99 will always be available. The automatically-configured compiler options in known_architectures should be modified to enable C99 mode if it is not enabled by default for all the recognised compilers. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1128> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

#535: Add autoconf macro to test C99 style variable declarations -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: eschnett | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Many compilers don't support C99 style variable declarations in their default settings. We should test this, add certain flags automatically if we can, or abort with a clear error message otherwise. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/535> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #1121: gcc 4.6+ compiler bug for isnan

#1121: gcc 4.6+ compiler bug for isnan ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ Reporter: sbrandt | Owner: eschnett Type: defect | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: ET_2012_11 Component: Carpet | Version: development version Keywords: | ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ It seems that gcc 4.6 and up has a problem with compiling the isnan function. http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48891 I find that simply referring to the namespace explicitly solves it. I had to make similar changes in Carpet/CarpetLib/src/defs.hh, but there I had to fix isinf as well. Probably the isnormal, copysign, etc. functions should get std:: for consistency. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1121> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #412: Split Appendices

#412: Split Appendices -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: eschnett | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Currently, the appendices of the users' guide are repeated into the reference manual. This is somewhat confusing, and causes problems because the appendices cannot easily reference other sections (e.g. "see page 15" doesn't make sense since one doesn't know in which document this will be read). I suggest to split the appendices and have some of them in the users' guide while moving others into the reference manual, so that each appendix is included in only one document -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/412> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit
