Restart.dat file

[Michael Hansen]

Hi,

I was wondering whether Lenstool isn't supposed to delete the
restart.dat file after a complete run?

Or is there a precise reason why the restart.dat file is retained even
after a succesfull run?

Cheers,
Michael

Hi Michael

It is just not implemented I guess.
But you can delete it once you run is over.

Cheers

Hi Mathilde,

I think you are right. I found the simple solution to add the following
code in the bottom of the main.c file.

Maybe Jean-Paul or Eric can check whether this is a useful method and
possibly add it. So far, in my tests, it seems to be working fine.

if (remove("restart.dat") != 0)
perror("Error deleting restart.dat");
else
puts("restart.dat succesfully deleted ...");

I have also added the main.c file.

Hi,

A small update. This seems like a more appropriate solution:

if ( M.icorshear != 0 )
cor_shear();

/* Check whether the restart flag is set, then delete restart.dat
after a successful optimization */
if (M.restart == 1) {

if (remove("restart.dat") != 0)
perror("Error deleting restart.dat");
else

puts("restart.dat successfully deleted ...");
}

In this way the error will not come up if the restart flag hasn't been
set. The M.icorshear is not part of my addition, but only to show where
I have added the code.

Cheers,
Michael
