Review last meeting		2017-08-22 Meeting notes
Name of restarted application	Thomas Weinhart	readFromRestartFile and initialiseFromRestart, latter doesn't change the name and resets file counter; link in documentationMDPM-242 OPEN

Review recent commits		Periodic boundaries in parallel build? VTK writers for walls and interactions New gimmicks useful for everyone: helpers::getRealTime() to output time in seconds; helpers::getPath() returns the path of the executable if VTK files are written, a python script is created to load the files in paraview Masers segfault still an issue? two masers now
Git-Svn bridge	Anthony Thornton	Everyone: make Bitbucket account. Private directories will stay in svn.
Interactions: list vs. vector	Former user (Deleted)	Every BaseInteractable has a std::list of interactions, while getInteractionWith returns a vector. Please choose one and be consistent.
setIndSpecies	Irana Denissen	Do we want to keep setIndSpecies deprecated? It causes a lot of warnings, and the alternative is not that much nicer. Agreed, check for range, pointer etc. species needs to be made before particles, break old codes! Ant will do.

Changed the SubcriticalMaserBoundary s.t. particles are not removed anymore.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r2488 | irana | 2017-08-31 09:15:57 +0200 (Thu, 31 Aug 2017) | 2 lines

MaserBoundaries, new names: fixed the include-guards and added the correct names to "read". MaserBoundary will be read as a ContinuousMassFlowMaserBoundary for backwards compatibility. Also added the test-data for SubcriticalMaserBoundarySelfTest.

Modifed the class in the HorizontalMixerRun in the MercuryLab Demos folder, as previously it was not compiling. The code was created by Thomas however the version Thomas used was a slightly different one. The updated one now compiles and works as expected.

r2483 | irana | 2017-08-29 14:14:18 +0200 (Tue, 29 Aug 2017) | 3 lines

New feature: added back in the old-style maser, which is more suitable for
subcritical flows, as it can cope with the "back-forces".

compilation fix: parallel code

Previous update messed up the parallel code compiling.
Apparently I forgot to test it.

bug-fix Perdioc boundaries in paralle

Periodic particles are now excluded in functions that
need periodic particles to be excluded.

I.e. computing the fasts particle

bug-fix: VTK writer

VTK writer can now correctly cope with periodic boundaries in
parallel build.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

bug-fix: Parallel code

Major bug fixes to the parallel code.

-Bug fix to interactions in parallel code: Sometimes the interacting particle
was not correctly found. A brute force method is now used to find it
-The new VTK writer could not cope with fake particles, that has been fixed now
-Bug fixes to periodic boundaries in parallel
-Periodic boundaries and mpi boundaries now communicate correctly with each other (hopefully..)

Clean-up VTKWriter, MDPM-240:

- fileCounter is now a mutable unsigned int, so that everything can stay const
- added the relevant const's
- BaseHandler::writeVTK is now deprecated, as it is empty and should not be used anymore
- extracted the method writePythonFileForVTKVisualisation, and removed the todo. I did not have any inspiration for a name, so feel free to change it.
- did some clean-up to conform to the coding standards
