RE: [dat-discussions] RFC: DAT 1.2 and 2.0 library build and installation

I think allowing co-existence is very important. Otherwise, commercial software will not be able to gracefully transition from 1.2 to 2.0 over time.

Subject: [dat-discussions] RFC: DAT 1.2 and 2.0 library build and installation

 

 

I am thinking about allowing coexistence of 1.2 and 2.0 libraries for the next release. This will insure that we continue to support 1.2 providers while new providers needing 2.0 features can also install and run on the same system. Does anyone see problems with this or have any suggestions other then separate naming conventions? I am thinking we will have to build/install 2.0 as dat2.conf, libdat2.so, libdapl2.so, and the development package as /usr/include/dat2/include.

 

comments?

 

Thanks,

I am actually thinking about sticking with one dat.conf. For example, OFED would change to look like the following: # # DAT 1.2 and 2.0 configuration file # #...

Then I do not see any problem with multiple libraries. How do you handle the change of signatures between 1.2 and 2.0 in redirection table? Thanks, Arkady...

My understanding is that the RFC just allows the coexistence of different libraries but the consumers are still responsible of handling the difference between...
