Updates for version 5.2.

...

Note that on ECMWF machines, you need to load the 'dev' module of ecflow to get the 5.2.0 test version:

...

module swap ecflow/5.2.0-develop
ecflow_ui

3

AreaDescription
Startup


Note

From this version on ecFlowUI uses a different config directory to enable the clear separation of ecFlow4 and ecflow5 related settings!

In the pre-5.2.3 versions the config settings were stored by default in

${HOME}/.ecflow_ui

From this version on the setting will be stored in

${HOME}/.ecflow_ui_v5

If this directory does not exist yet and we start ecFlowUI without the -confd option a new config directory will be created by copying the contents of the old config directory.


Updates for version 5.2.0

This version of ecFlow should only be used for testing!
