check a suite definition without loading it into the ecflow_server:

Step-by-step guide

1. If the suite definition is in a text file::
   > ecflow_client --load=test.def check_only

2. Load the test.def into python and check

   import ecflow      defs = ecflow.Defs("test.def") theCheckValue = defs.check(); assert len(theCheckValue) != 0,  "Error in expression,limits,etc," + theCheckValue

   
   

3. If the suite definition is built using python api.

   import ecflow      defs = ecflow.Defs() suite = defs.add_suite("s1"); suite.add_task("t1").add_trigger("t2 == active)")   theCheckValue = defs.check(); print "Message: '" + theCheckValue + "'" assert len(theCheckValue) != 0,  "Expected Error: mis-matched brackets in expression."
