v1.5.0

Important notes

ParMmg is a research software. We don't provide support or user help on this project and lot of features are still experimental and needs to be robustify.

The main objective of this software is to go beyond the memory limit of serial mesh adaptation by exploiting the memory of several nodes. Time scalability it is not our primary goal and the software has not been profiled for the current release.

⚠️ Careful points ⚠️

• Users have now to build the software in CMake Release mode to avoid slowness and issues due to the new developper checks. The Debug mode is to be used only for developpers
• In case of errors, the ParMmg library may call MPI_Abort and kill all the process

What's Changed In a Nutshell

• Add parallel hdf5 I/Os
• Add level-set discretization mode with multi-material capability from centralized and distributed inputs. For distributed inputs, the level-set snapping (avoiding bad quality elements) is not yet implemented
• Add strong and numerous checks on private Mmg data consistency in CMake Debug mode to improve software robustness and make debugging easier
• Add call to MPI_Abort() in some parts of the code where we lack time to implement a clean error handling
• Modification of the compilation proccess and way to link with Mmg
