Announcements
Mark pointed out the new ???release of sim-recon that came out this week.
Matt remarked that some of the data in the calibration database can change the behavior of the code in a given release and that we should consider tagging a set of calibration constants along with the code. Since we do not have a calibration database yet that supports freezing of the constants we need some alternate mechanism for doing it.
Mark thought that in the cases where numbers need to be frozen, more than likely they should be parameters in the source code, using the configuration scheme that David described at an earlier meeting. Then default values are captured along with the standard release tag.
Matt mentioned that CLEO had similar parameters in a database along with calibration constants and so both were captured with the single tag.
We agreed that in the current situation we have no other choice but to tag the calibrations in some way using subversion. Mark agreed to come up with a scheme.
releases, freezing calibration constants
externals in subversion
New Action Items
- Propose scheme for tagging calibration constants. -> Mark
