I've been too distracted with other work to take a close look, but will try to do so by week's end. Just wanted to say I haven't forgotten about this. :-)
I'll need to print the relevant files and look closely at what you did, but I see the idea, and think this will considerably improve the registration/execution system. The build does seem to be failing at the moment, so I don't think I can approve this PR. Can you check if the build failure is just a formatting issue? I always need to do a "make format" from build/, and sometimes seems to need to run it twice(?).
The build failure seems (to my inexpert eyes) to be some sort of CMake issue; I don't even know if the build was working (for the refactor
branch) prior to this (since Travis doesn't mention it). (I could make an empty pull request to find out, I suppose, but surely someone knows?)
The failure is just because of the cmake version. This builds and runs correctly for me, so I'm merging it. Nice work! :-)
This adds alternative syntax for registering tasks and fields, including support for tasks that are specializations of function templates. They may be able to replace
flecsi_register_task
/flecsi_execute_task
andflecsi_add_field
/flecsi_field_instance
(and their global/index variants) entirely; so far, some of the tests are changed to demonstrate (and test) the new interface.The interface of
execute
may need some work to elegantly handle non-default policies.
