[cctbxbb] command line syntax for multiple scope PHIL

[richard.gildea at diamond.ac.uk]

Hi Rob,

As far as I am aware there is currently no way to specify that on the command line - the phil file is the only way to do this. It would be good if someone was to extend the PHIL command line parsing to enable such functionality :)

Cheers,

Richard

Subject: [cctbxbb] command line syntax for multiple scope PHIL

Say a program, myprog, has a master PHIL definition like:

   minimization.input
       .multiple = True
   {
     file_name = None
       .type = str
     nval = None
       .type = int
   }

and a PHIL input file like:

   minimization.input {
     file_name = experiment1.dat
     nval = 42
   }
   minimization.input {
     file_name = experiment2.dat
     nval = 13
   }


so that the user on the command line can type
    "myprog phil_input.txt"

What would be the equivalent command line syntax of the PHIL input
above?



Rob
