NEST 5g kernel breaks SPORE #26

Open kappeld opened 6 years ago

kappeld commented 6 years ago

The NEST 5g kernel that will be introduced in one of the next release version is not compatible with SPORE.

https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/pull/920

The connection model has been significantly re-factored. These changes need to be included in SPORE. Current version does not compile with the 5g branch.

can confirm this. we've also encountered problems with 5g and SPORE (https://github.com/jakobj/nest-simulator/issues/74). @hakonsbm has already looked into this a bit. maybe the two of you could sit together to fix this? i'd be happy to assist if you need me

Thanks @jakobj for the input. I started investigating this and it will require some thinking and redesigning from our side. Do you have a date planned when 5G should be merged into nest/master? Our goal is to keep SPORE in sync with changes in NEST quite timely, so it would be good for our planning this effort if we knew when things will happen.
