My suggestion would handle that case; the case where it fails is what you've pointed out: > This is tricky since you could theoretically exhaust > the number of subdomains with "pure" subdomains alone let alone > generating new magic IDs for hybrid domains. Yeah; dividing the number of available subdomains by the number of possible element types is a serious limitation, especially if any users are already doing bitmasking tricks and thereby creating higher subdomain_ids faster. Exodus uses a 32-bit block ID, right? And we use 12 of their element types; we might say 16 to leave some room for expansion. So our maximum "real" subdomain_id would be around 250 million; we'd have thrown away the top 4 bits. --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
