Repeat with day/date

The behaviour of day/date attribute under a repeat has changed from ecflow 4.0. Take the example below.

In ecflow 4.0, if task t1 took longer than 1 hour task t2 would not run.(i.e. because we strayed over to the next day)

In ecflow 5.0, once the day monday is free on family f1, it stays free until the automatic re-queue caused by the parent repeat. The net effect being that task t2 will still run, even if we have strayed into Tuesday.

Code Block
titleday/date remain free until re-queue
suite s1
  family f
    repeat integer rep 0 7
    family f1
       day monday  
       time 23:00
       task t1
       task t2 
            trigger t1 == complete
 ...


Repeat increment

A repeat under a family node will only increment when all the child nodes are complete.

In the example above, once task t1, and t2 are complete, the repeat integer rep will increment to the next value.
