artdaq Release Notes 2.02.03 (22-May-2017)

Introduction

This version of artdaq introduces the RoutingMaster functionality, and reconfigures the Dispatcher Aggregator type to be a full-fledged “tier” in the artdaq system.

This version of artdaq can be built against art v2_06_03 (s48) ,v2_06_02 (s47), or v2_06_01 (s46). It can be built with gcc v4_9_3a (e10) and gcc v6_3_0 (e14).

Also, artdaq can be built with the Infiniband or Ethernet MPI libraries, and these are controlled by qualifiers ib and eth.

The default set of qualifiers for this version of artdaq is e10:s46, which implies the eth qualifier.
