Longbow v1.1.4

The changes in this release are summarised below:

1. The saveconfigs method would overwrite entries within the hosts config with potentially blank entries if it was triggered and parameters existed in such a state (perhaps via overrides).

2. There was a missing clause on one of the if statements that prevented parameters at the hosts level from overriding internal defaults. This has now been added in.

Longbow v1.1.3

The changes in this release are summarised below:

1. Update to the supported command line arguments to support non and GNU standard options for help and version number.

2. Update to allow the creation of repX directories when they are missing (Stops gromacs etc from exiting with path not found error).

3. Fix for bugs in python 3, there were two issues, one a python name change and the second was due to garbled output coming from the linux shell environment.

Longbow v1.1.1

The changes in this release are summarised below:

1. Modifications to how Longbow accepts the help and version command line parameters, some people don't follow GNU standards and thus so that we can show them the help message/version we have allowed -v, -version, --version, -h, -help and --help.

2. Longbow now creates missing repX directories if they are missing in cases where all input files are global. This would allow jobs that might use different random seeds on the same input files to be efficient on transfers.

Longbow v1.1.0

The changes in this release are summarised below:

1. Fix for overwritten rsync-includes (developers only).

2. Bad character length on PBS now has an error message to inform the user what went wrong. Job names longer than 15 chars would be rejected.

3. Jobs that failed in a multi job would bring down the whole lot due to a bad initialisation now fixed.

4. Command line Longbow is submitted with is now logged to the log file for debugging purposes.

5. Bug fix with a bad initialisation in job processing code.

6. New ini parsers that don't rely on python std lib parser, this means comments are no longer deleted.

7. The following methods; loadhosts(), loadjobs(), sortjobsconfigs(), sorthostsconfigs(), amendjobsconfigs() have been replaced with single method processconfigs().

8. Fix for critical failure when the remoteworkdir did not exist.
