[Swift-user] Swift 0.3 released

[Allen, M. David]

I just dropped 0.3 into place, and tried to re-run a test workflow that
I have.  

For some reason, 0.3 seems to be causing problems with CSV files.
Attached is a simple swiftscript, the CSV file it requires as input,
and the output files generated as part of the run.

The CSV file is simple:

name,feedURL
The Foo Blog,http://foo.com/somedir/index.rdf
The Bar Blog,http://bar.com/bardir/index.rdf
(...)

All the swiftscript does is take the feedURL, and then print each one
out into a different file.  As far as I can tell though, splitting this
file by a comma delimiter is causing problems.  Instead of getting the
full URL as an argument to "echo", it is only passing
"somedir/index.rdf", "bardir/index.rdf", and so on.

One other thing -- my echo statement looks like this:

   echo @b.feedURL stdout=@filename(headlines);

>From what I've read, the '@' in front of b.feedURL shouldn't be
required.  If this isn't present though, the output for every line of
the csv is the string literal 'true' instead of even a portion of the
URL.

Any idea what might be going on here?

Apologies if I'm making some kind of silly mistake, but I can't find
any reference to this issue in the CHANGES file, and this has worked
just fine with previous releases.

Thanks,

-- David

Swift 0.3 is now available for download from the swift downloads page,
http://www.ci.uchicago.edu/swift/downloads/

Swift 0.3 is a development release intended to distribute new 
functionality and fixes that have gone into our codebase since v0.2 was

released in July.

There are many changes, detailed in the CHANGES.txt file inside the 
release.

Some significant changes:

  * mappers can now map files in remote locations in addition to the
local 
    disk (for example, accessed through gridftp or dcache)

  * PBS direct job submission, for running Swift directly on a PBS 
    cluster avoiding GRAM.

  * Changes to logging formats to make mechanical analysis easier.

  * sequential iteration language construct (for example, for running 
    simulations with each step being a separate job)

Please download and enjoy, and do not hesitate to post mail to either
the 
swift-devel or swift-user list with questions, comments and complaints.
