#705: Activation Order in Parameter Files --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: sbrandt | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: --------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Comment (by eschnett):
The Cactus documentation says: {{{ \item{} The parameter file is read \emph{sequentially} from top to bottom, this means that if you set the value of a parameter twice in the parameter file, the second value will be used. (This is why the \texttt{ActiveThorns} parameter is always first in the file). }}}
Please update this.
There are also many instances in the users' guide which speak of ActiveThorns as "the first parameter being set". If we allow this to be set multiple times, and if this is commonly used, then this should be mentioned as well.
