0.8.6 Release Highlights

(adapted from Conduit's Changelog)

Added

General

• Added C++ int DataType::sizeof_index_t() and C int conduit_datatype_sizeof_index_t() methods to provide a stable ABI to determine configured size (number of bytes) of Conduit's index_t type.

Fixed

General

• Build fixes for Conda Forge (mpi -fallow-argument-mismatch clang protection)

Relay

• Fixed a directory creation bug in relay::io::blueprint::{save_mesh|write_mesh} that occurred with sparse topologies with no domains on rank 0.
• Fixed a bug in relay::io::blueprint::{save_mesh|write_mesh} with the suffix=cycle option that could cause int max to erroneously be used as the cycle number in the output directory.
