Charm++ parallel programming system

Thanks Mike.

Actually -- just noticed that I have typo in question below.  Should be:

ProxyElement_A a=...;

ProxyElement_A b=...;

My use case is still in development but here goes:

A chare class "Parent" instance "P" stores 2 different proxies "left" and "right" (for two different chares) of chare class Child;

A Child instance C1 sends a message to its parent P which will message it children through its 'left' and 'right' proxies -- however, I don't want to message the child C1.

Does that make sense?

Thanks,

John

This response is for both of your questions regarding proxy equality. There is currently not a straightforward way to compare proxies, but it is something that is pretty straightforward to implement, so we are working on a quick implementation now and we will tell you when we get something working.

Out of curiousity, what is the use case you have for needing to compare proxies in this way?

Thanks

Hi,

If I have two different element proxies of a 1D chare array;  Is there a way to tell if they refer to the same chare element from an array?

ProxyElement_A a=...;

ProxyElement_B b=...;

Thanks,

John
