Re: [OMPI devel] RFC: merge windows branch into trunk

Hi Rainer Historically, our rules have prohibited the introduction of such features into a sub-release like 1.3.1. Perhaps that policy needs review? We've been pretty strict about it in the past, though...with some good reasons, I admit. Ralph On Nov 20, 2008, at 4:56 PM, Rainer Kelle

[OMPI devel] IOF round 2

Hi all I believe I have fixed the IOF problems reported by Tim M a week ago (11/13). The fixes are in a separate Hg branch: http://www.open-mpi.org/hg/hgwebdir.cgi/rhc/iof/ Before I bring these to the trunk - and eventually migrate them to the 1.3 branch - would some of you like to run an

I'm probably going to come across as ignorant, and I'm obviously biased on this matter, but: * Tim Mattox wrote on Thu, Nov 20, 2008 at 02:53:13PM CET: > > Although I don't use windows myself, I appreciate your > and others' efforts to expand the number of platforms > we can run on. Great work!

Re: [OMPI devel] RFC: merge windows branch into trunk

Hi Ralph, 1. since nearly everyone is at SC08, and since next week is a holiday, the timing of this merge is poor. I would really urge that you delay it until at least Dec 5 so people actually know about it - and have time to even think about it No problem, we can delay it. Dec 9th is the last

Re: [OMPI devel] RFC: merge windows branch into trunk

Hi Tim, Yes, you're right. Most of those changes are made based on #ifdef __WINDOWS__, that would make troubles for CMRs. Here I provide some more information : These files are harmless, because no other platform will use them (no need to go into 1.3).

Re: [OMPI devel] RFC: merge windows branch into trunk

HmmmI was just typing this up when Tim's note hit. I also have two concerns that somewhat echo his: 1. since nearly everyone is at SC08, and since next week is a holiday, the timing of this merge is poor. I would really urge that you delay it until at least Dec 5 so people actually know

Re: [OMPI devel] RFC: merge windows branch into trunk

I have two concerns. First is that we really need to focus on getting 1.3 stable and released. My second concern with this is how will it effect merging of bugfixes for 1.3 from the trunk once we release 1.3. Will the following modified files cause merge conflicts for CMRs? How big is this diff
