Export PyNN script as NEST sli script #203

Closed apdavison closed 2 years ago

apdavison commented 11 years ago

For running on supercomputers that do not support Python, and for potential speed gains, it would be useful to be able to export a PyNN script as the equivalent sli script.

For scripts that do not involve querying the NEST kernel, this can be most easily done in PyNEST by replacing the sli_push and sli_run functions - Jochen plans to work on this.

For scripts that would involve use of sli_pop we will need to use a proxy backend that does the necessary book-keeping. Such a proxy is anyway needed elsewhere, for MUSIC (see ticket:205), for NineML/NeuroML export and for testing.

Most usage of NEST appears to be via PyNEST now, so I'm closing this because we have many other priorities. If someone really wants this feature, a pull request would be welcomed!
