Task Manager Version 2 Home Page
Skimming should be run from the release appropriate for
the skim cycle being produced.
The following packages should be checked out:
BbkJobWrappers
BbkTaskManager
and if using the Grid
BbkTMGridTools
The TM2 packages are still under active development, so you should
select the latest tag for each package (do NOT use
the CVS HEAD, since
it would later be difficult to know which version you are using).
You can find which tag to use by following the links above and
looking at the latest tag shown under "CVS tags" at the
top.
Alternatively, or if CVSweb only shows HEAD,
you can use the listtags command to list all
the tags and then choose the latest, which is listed first.
For skim releases prior to 24.3.3a, you also need to check out
BbkSqlAbstractor V00-00-14
BbkTools V00-01-44
or more recent versions.
Don't forget to gmake binscripts if you check out or
update any packages.
Documentation
To obtain the latest version of the documentation:
gmake BbkTaskManager.guide gv doc/BbkTaskManager.pdf
or (if you have LaTex2HTML installed):
gmake BbkTaskManager.guide HTML=1
and view doc/BbkTaskManager.html.
You should always obtain the
current
version
of the documentation before embarking on skimming,
but for quick reference, here is the documentation from
17th March 2008 (still current for BbkTaskManager V02-00-05):
You should also subscribe to the SkimControl
HyperNews forum to keep up with developments.
The Task
Manager schema diagram
may also be of some help.
