2009-10-23 Thread Barry Smith

   PetscRandomGetValueReal() and PetscRandomGetValueImaginary() have  
no mention in their manual pages what they do?
Do they return random numbers with a zero imaginary part and a zero  
real part respectively? Manual page does not see.
Also PetscRandomGetValue() does not have .seealso to these two  
functions, nor do these two functions have .seealso to the other.

   Whoever wrote these things please fix this.

Done.

However, Igot an unholy merge on builder.py. It is definitely screwed up. I
can fix it when
I get home on Sunday.

I thought I was working on builder.py? Crude, yes, but the way I  
want it :-).

Were you adding code to builder.py?

Yep. I am all for this. However, two people on such a small piece of code is
hard.
Also, didn't you ask me to put that stuff in?

Sorry I must have miscommunicated. I thought you were finished  
when you added the basic code that could compile some .c code (that's  
what I wanted from you, since that required knowledge of the  
particular configure objects and variables to get out the compiler,  
the compiler flags etc.). So I started working on it. I didn't expect  
that you would keep on working on it.

If they are like totally different, maybe you should rename yours  
builder2.py (not try to merge) and then we can decide how to proceed.  
(for example, toss mine, toss yours, or I could pick chunks of yours  
that I like).
