GitHub issues, PRs, discussions

Drafts/On Hold

• New test to demonstrate GNU failure #689
  • Associated issue: Unallocated fields passed into Group Caps #690
  • PR Demonstrates test failure, but doesn't fix it yet
• DRAFT FOR DOM: Feature/capgen_for_fuji #718

Capgen project board

• No new issues, PRs

New items for discussion

• Issue backlog/triage
  • Skipped any issues that have "post-capgen unification" label...we should review those at the appropriate time
  • Convert old python strings to f-strings #501
  • capgen: check handling of type attribute for ddts #516
  • Change constituent properties parsed from standard name? #534
    • Label this "post-capgen unification"?
  • Update CCPP tech doc: schemes can currently have optional arguments in between regular arguments - follow up with moving opt args to the end #544
    • Partially resolved, Mike will follow up with tech-doc update.
  • Add "number of instances" dimension to module-level variables to support multi-instance usage #561
    • New names added to dictionary, but these changes haven't come in from NEPTUNE yet right?

Updates from last time

Previous notes

Other business

Meeting notes

• Add threading and multi-instance test for capgen (#721)
  • GNU failure / ddt rework
• Courtney still working, has made forward progress on organizing the dictionaries/calling lists; now working on constituent indices

Backlog triage

• Convert old python strings to f-strings (#501)
  • Has been partially done, needs someone’s time
• Check handling of type attribute for ddts (#516)
  • Not a high priority, but probably should check what this behavior is doing
• Change constituent properties parsed from standard name (#534)
  • Probably needs discussion in the future
  • Might need to be discussed at same time as other constituent issues
  • Michael added the “post-capgen-unification” label
• Update CCPP tech doc: schemes can currently have optional arguments in between regular arguments - follow up with moving opt argos to the end (#544)
  • Unclear if this is necessary, it technically works because we always pass “var=var” into the function calls
  • Michael to check the fortran standards; will close this issue (with no action) if we’re not explicitly breaking any fortran standards
• Add “number of instances” dimension to module-level variables to support multi-instance (#561)
  • In progress - Steve & Dom; standard names are in place & Dom working on adding a test

NEXT MEETING

• We'll plan to meet in 3 weeks (unless something comes up and we need to meet next week)
