I've just committed some changes (that hopefully are also fixes) to idcaf.
The older version is still running. I think it would be worth testing
this version with the 2-subarray test that Vivek ran last week. I will
try to deploy the updated idcaf at the next convenient test slot.
There are three changes since yesterday:
1. Activate new correlator document mode up to one integration earlier --
should fix one type of possible first integration problem.
2. If a new VlaCorrelatorMode document has a start time not on a 10-second
IAT boundary, flag the integration during which the new document takes
effect. I think this is the most common cause of the "first integration"
problems that folks have reported and it is clear that it is common that
the first VlaCorrMode document of a file often starts with a start time
not on a 10sec boundary. A tolerance of 0.05 seconds is used.
3. If multiple documents of the same type/subarray have same start time,
take the most recent one. I would still feel more comfortable if idcaf
didn't have to choose among conflicting documents!
