Hi folks Given a growing use of PRRTE plus OMPI’s announced plans to phase out ORTE in favor of PRRTE, it seems the time has come to begin generating formal releases of PRRTE. Accordingly, I have created a v3.0.0 release candidate for folks to (hopefully) test:
https://github.com/pmix/prrte/releases/tag/prrte-v3.0.0rc1 Note that the first number in the version triplet represents the PMIx level being supported - in this case, the release candidate supports PMIx v3 of the Standard. I know we haven’t yet released that formal document, but it is available in PR form and should be released fairly soon. This release candidate actually includes support for some of the under-development PMIx v4 APIs. However, the version triplet is based on what we consider to be the “production” level of PRRTE, and the PMIx v4 support included in the current code is truly at the prototype level. Those who want to experiment with those interfaces are welcome to build this release against the PMIx master branch (which is at the cutting edge of PMIx v4 development) and work with them. Now that we have started formal releases, we’ll do a better job of branching early prior to introducing new APIs so we won’t have this mix again. Note that PRRTE contains _no_ embedded code. Thus, building it requires that you have libevent, hwloc, and some version of PMIx installed - if not in standard locations, you’ll need to use the configure arguments to point to them. Any version of PMIx that is at least v2.0 is supported - PRRTE does _not_ support the PMIx v1 series. Please give this a whirl and post any comments/bugs to the github issues.
