exporter.export

[vhuber]

Why there is no

if(boption("exporter.export"))

at the beginning of each save() function (exporter*)

[prudhomm]

partly lazyness, partly because it is not quite nice

[vhuber]

I do not understand: I guess that option was defined to that purpose.

[prudhomm]

or the user can use it

[prudhomm]

if ( boption( "exporter.export" ) )
{
 ///  exporter code here

}

[vhuber]

Of course the user can do it, but the purpose of that option is ambiguous (to my mind).
Maybe we can explicitly create levels of options or find a way to make it clear to everyone

• for the user dev (--functions.*, --exporter.export ...)
• for tuning purpose (--mesh1d.localisation.nelt-in-leaf-kdtree)
• for master only (--fieldsplit-0.fieldsplit-1.lsc.sub-ksp-maxit-reuse)

[prudhomm]

of course, the idea of creating --help and --help-lib. In time, lib will be split into various domains like for example the one you mention. This needs to be discussed to avoir changing things too often.
