#1284: Want stand-alone parameter parser --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: eschnett | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: --------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Comment (by eschnett):
I want a parameter parser so that I know the parameters and their values, given a parameter file.
I assume that using the Cactus executable may work. It's a bit clunky to use (since it may be much larger than a utility) and/or may require mpirun, but this can be dealt with. (We can either have a "runcactus" script that remembers which mpirun to use, or can use Simfactory's "sim run" command, or use a similar solution.) I also don't like that this may require going through a queuing system when cross-compiling, but in this case, I would assume that one can instead hopefully use an identical source tree on a different machine.
