There should be a note, at least. > Or phrase it "UNKNOWN" instead of "INFINITY". My feeling is, that > calling it "UNKNOWN" it's more likely to expect this behavior. I'm not sure whether that would work. I think it needs to be read as a number (a valid time). I guess the reader could treat UNKNOWN the same as INFINITY, but I wonder if that could cause any problem or confusion. It's worth considering, anyhow. -- Community Grid Engine: http://arc.liv.ac.uk/SGE/ _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
