Exactly, so now you're putting yet another requirement on BOINC applications. For apps to work in BOINC, they have to ignore arguments they don't understand (so a typo in a project-provided command line switch won't be noticed, it may just calculate the wrong thing), or they have to ignore the specific set of arguments used by BOINC for its own purpose (--device and now --num_threads), which means devs have to know what they are. It's much simpler if you could say: what you put in command_line in the WU template or in create_work is passed to the science app untouched. _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list boinc_dev@ssl.berkeley.edu http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
