#502: SimFactory user-guide should be available and updated automatically -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: hinder | Owner: knarf Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: SimFactory | Version: Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- SimFactory has an incomplete user guide in the doc/userguide directory. This is developed using Sphinx, which is a Python framework for writing documentation. You need to install sphinx to generate this documentation. This can be done using something similar to the following: export PYTHONPATH=/home/ianhin/software/python export PATH=/home/ianhin/software/python/:$PATH hash -r easy_install --install-dir ~/software/python sphinx Then go into the simfactory/doc/userguide directory and type: ./autogen make html to generate HTML documentation (type just "make" to see the other possible targets like PDF etc). This should be regenerated on any commit to the SimFactory/doc/userguide directory and copied to a web-accessible location for inclusion on simfactory.org. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/502> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #1698: The ET tickets should be tidied up

#1698: The ET tickets should be tidied up ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: hinder | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: EinsteinToolkit trac | Version: development version Keywords: | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Many of the ET tickets have not seen much attention recently or at all. We should have a session where we run though all the tickets and make sure that their priorities/state etc are correct. Once we have done this, we should come up with a strategy for keeping the tickets under control. In the process, we should decide what is meant by the different ticket priorities, and whether we need to add additional priorities or states to allow us to more effectively manage the tickets. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1698> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #719: Mailing lists could have a link to the archived version of the message

#719: Mailing lists could have a link to the archived version of the message -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: hinder | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: Other | Version: Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- It would be useful for the footer of a mailing list posting to contain a URL to the archived version of the message so that it is easy to point people to the message in an email. This would apply to both the Cactus and the ET lists. It appears that this is not straightforward in MailMan 2, but is expected in version 3: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman- users/2011-October/072378.html. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/719> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

The configure script should be updated to detect these versions. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1471> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #1170: ExtrenalLibraries handle XXX_DIR XXX_INC_DIRS and XXX_LIB_DIRS incosistently

#1170: ExtrenalLibraries handle XXX_DIR XXX_INC_DIRS and XXX_LIB_DIRS incosistently -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: rhaas | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: EinsteinToolkit thorn | Version: Keywords: ExternalLibraries | -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- This is a companion ticket to #1006. Different thorns (eg. MPI and HDF5 and LAPACK) handle XXX_DIR and XXX_INC_DIRS etc differently. MPI for example sets the include path to $MPI_DIR/include if MPI_INC_DIRS is not explicitly set and to MPI_INC_DIRS if it is set. HDF5 has no HDF5_INC_DIRS option and always sets the include path to HDF5_DIR/include. LAPACK has not INC_DIRS option and sets the linker path to LAPACK_DIR while the other two thorns set it to XXX_DIR/lib (unless overridden by MPI_LIB_DIRS in the case of MPI). I would be good to present a uniform set of option for all these thorns. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1170> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #1769: External libraries: moving towards multiarch library directory structure

#1769: External libraries: moving towards multiarch library directory structure ----------------------------------------------+----------------------------- Reporter: bmundim | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: ET_2015_05 Component: EinsteinToolkit thorn | Version: development version Keywords: ExternalLibraries HDF5 Multiarch | ----------------------------------------------+----------------------------- Several Linux distributions have already started to move their libraries to a new directory structure that reflects the target architecture and allows the installation of packages from multiple architectures in the same system. The following links provide more details of this change: {{{ https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/TheCaseForMultiarch https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchSpec }}} This change potentially affects several of external library scripts shipped with ET. For example the HDF5/src/detect.sh script is not able to detect the hdf5 libraries installed in the directory /usr/lib/x86_64 -linux-gnu for Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS. I have attached a simple patch to remedy this issue and open a discussion on the best way to proceed here. This patch does depend on the availability of gcc on the system. It currently works fine for me, but we might need a better solution for systems without gcc. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1769> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #1474: compile ExternalLibraries with other thorns rather than when CST runs

#1474: compile ExternalLibraries with other thorns rather than when CST runs -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: rhaas | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: development version Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Compiling external libraries takes a long time by now. Currently this happens very early in the compilation phase, before the other thorns are compiled. It would be better if the compilation happened at the same time as that of other thorns. This will entail splitting the configuration ie. detecting whether to build the included source or use a system wide copy from the compilation, most likely either using Cactus makefile variables or temporary files to transfer the decisions from the configuration stage to the build stage. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1474> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #1946: sim setup should create a section for the current machine

#1946: sim setup should create a section for the current machine -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: rhaas | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: SimFactory | Version: development version Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- When calling sim setup on a machine in the machine data base (eg bluewaters in my case) it it still creates only a {{{[default]}}} section in defs.local.ini which means that the account information and possibly non-default sourcebasedir are not used for bluewaters leading to hard to understand error messages later on. I would thus like to suggest to change sim setup such that instead (or in addition to) a "[default]" section it creates a section for the detected machine if it already knows this machine. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1946> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit
