PyConf compatibility with Multi Event Scheduler
This MR adds some functionality to work with the MES introduced in Allen!429 (merged).
-
aggregatesin Allen work with optional inputs (a bit like the MergingTransformer), therefore_is_optionalwas introduced to check for that. It is used with theall_producersfunction with aninclude_optionalsflag. The all_inputs function branches too often (without caching) to be able to use it in theall_producersfunction. -
mask_ttype inputs in Allen algorithms are control flow inputs. They will be met by mask algorithms compiling the event list to run on. Therefore they are to be excluded from the data dependency checks. -
Add
avrg_efficiencyandweightas members to the algorithm, to be able to determine good orders of algorithms in the MES -
uses_and,uses_or.. convenience methods for the compositenode -
force_order = Falsemeans that the MES can check permutations of orders to see what works better. therefore, the check to haveforce_order == Truewhen being lazy gets in the way.
Goes with Moore!810 (merged)
