Conduit Changelog

Notable changes to Conduit are documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project aspires to adhere to Semantic Versioning.

Unreleased

Added

General

  • Added a set of conduit::utils::log::remove_* filtering functions, which process conduit log/info nodes and strip out the requested information (useful for focusing the often verbose output in log/info nodes).

0.5.1 - Released 2020-01-18

Added

General

  • Added Node::parse() method, (C++, Python and Fortran) which supports common json and yaml parsing use cases without creating a generator instance.
  • Use FOLDER target property to group targets for Visual Studio
  • Added Node load(), and save() support to the C and Fortran APIs

Changed

General

  • Node::load() and Node::save() now auto detect which protocol to use when protocol argument is an empty string
  • Changed Node::load() and Node::save() default protocol value to empty (default now is to auto detect)
  • Changed Python linking strategy to defer linking for our compiler modules
  • Conduit Error Exception message strings now print cleaner (avoiding nesting doll string escaping headaches)
  • Build system improvements to support conda-forge builds for Linux, macOS, and Windows

Fixed

General

  • Fixed install paths for CMake exported target files to follow standard CMake find_package() search conventions. Also perserved duplicate files to support old import path structure for this release.
  • python: Fixed Node.set_external() to accept conduit nodes as well as numpy arrays
  • Fixed dll install locations for Windows

0.5.0 - Released 2019-10-25

Added

General

  • Added support to parse YAML into Conduit Nodes and to create YAML from Conduit Nodes. Support closely follows the "json" protocol, making similar choices related to promoting YAML string leaves to concrete data types.
  • Added several more Conduit Node methods to the C and Fortran APIs. Additions are enumerated here: LLNL#426
  • Added Node set support for Python Tuples and Lists with numeric and string entires
  • Added Node set support for Numpy String Arrays. String Arrays become Conduit lists with child char8_str arrays

Blueprint

  • Added support for a "zfparray" blueprint that holds ZFP compressed array data.
  • Added the the "specsets" top-level section to the Blueprint schema, which can be used to represent multi-dimensional per-material quantities (most commonly per-material atomic composition fractions).
  • Added explicit topological data generation functions for points, lines, and faces
  • Added derived topology generation functions for element centroids, sides, and corners
  • Added the basic example function to the conduit.mesh.blueprint.examples module

Relay

  • Added optional ZFP support to relay, that enables wrapping and unwraping zfp arrays into conduit Nodes.
  • Extended relay HDF5 I/O support to read a wider range of HDF5 string representations including H5T_VARIABLE strings.

Changed

General

  • Conduit's automatic build process (uberenv + spack) now defaults to using Python 3
  • Improved CMake export logic to make it easier to find and use Conduit install in a CMake-based build system. (See using-with-cmake example for new recipe)

Relay

  • Added is_open() method to IOHandle in the C++ and Python interfaces
  • Added file name information to Relay HDF5 error messages

Fixed

General

  • Fixed bug that caused memory access after free during Node destruction

Relay

  • Fixed crash with mpi broadcast_using_schema() when receiving tasks pass a non empty Node.
  • Fixed a few Windows API export issues for relay io

0.4.0 - Released 2019-03-01

Added

General

  • Added Generic IO Handle class (relay::io::IOHandle) with C++ and Python APIs, tests, and docs.
  • Added rename_child method to Schema and Node
  • Added generation and install of conduit_config.mk for using-with-make example
  • Added datatype helpers for long long and long double
  • Added error for empty path fetch
  • Added C functions for setting error, warning, info handlers.
  • Added limited set of C bindings for DataType
  • Added C bindings for relay IO
  • Added several more functions to conduit node python interfaces

Blueprint

  • Added implicit point topology docs and example
  • Added julia and spiral mesh bp examples
  • Added mesh topology transformations to blueprint
  • Added polygonal mesh support to mesh blueprint
  • Added verify method for mesh blueprint nestset

Relay

  • Added ADIOS Support, enabling ADIOS read and write of Node objects.
  • Added a relay::mpi::io library that mirrors the API of relay::io, except that all functions take an MPI communicator. The functions are implemented in parallel for the ADIOS protocol. For other protocols, they will behave the same as the serial functions in relay::io. For the ADIOS protocol, the save() and save_merged() functions operate collectively within a communicator to enable multiple MPI ranks to save data to a single file as separate "domains".
  • Added an add_time_step() function to that lets the caller append data collectively to an existing ADIOS file
  • Added a function to query the number of time steps and the number of domains in a ADIOS file.
  • Added versions of save and save_merged that take an options node.
  • Added C API for new save, save_merged functions.
  • Added method to list an HDF5 group's child names
  • Added save and append methods to the HDF5 I/O interface
  • Added docs and examples for relay io

Changed

General

  • Changed mapping of c types to bit-width style to be compatible with C++11 std bit-width types when C++11 is enabled
  • Several improvements to uberenv, our automated build process, and building directions
  • Upgraded the type system with more explicit signed support

Relay

  • Improvements to the Silo mesh writer
  • Refactor to support both relay::io and relay::mpi::io namespaces.
  • Refactor to add support for steps and domains to I/O interfaces
  • Changed to only use libver latest setting for for hdf5 1.8 to minimize compatibility issues

Fixed

  • Fixed bugs with std::vector gap methods
  • Fixed A few C function names in conduit_node.h
