#267: simfactory does not detect changes to stored option list ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Reporter: sbrandt | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Other | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: ----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
Comment (by eschnett):
The .cfg files are stored outside of Cactus. The intent is that a Cactus configuration is independent of these files and does not automatically pick up changes, so that one can keep Cactus configurations around for a long time without major changes, e.g. if finishing a long-running calculation.
If you want to make Cactus pick up the changes, you have to use the simfactory option "--optionlist=NAME.cfg". Similar for the .sub and .run files.
The .ini files are only part of simfactory, and changes to them take effect immediately.
