[neutron-mc] Mcformat Problems

[Aaron M. Percival]

Hi Peter,

The work around did work, with a slight bug.  The files were all
successfully merged, however the resultant files were not created in the
c:\test folder but in a c:\test\temp\one folder, and an empty
c:\test\temp\two folder was also created.

Do you plan to incorporate the merging of virtual_input into mcformat files
at any point?

Thanks again,

Aaron

Hi there,


Thanks for reporting, the bug has been added to our TODO. For now, could you
try the workaround mentioned below for me?

A small note here, mcformat currently _does_not_ merge virtual_input files.

Here is an indication of the problem - windows disklabels should be removed
when generating the output dir. Could you instead try the following:

C:\>mcformat --format=McStas --force --dir=C:\test \temp\one \temp\two
--merge


Thanks again,

Peter
