Re: [Condor-users] macros expansion in transfer_input_files

["Smith, Ian" <I.C.Smith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hmm - I'm not sure I see the logic behind this. Do you have the reference to the original e-mail

on the list. I tried:

 

transfer_input_files=monte_app_$(postfix)
+postfix = $$(Name)

but I get the same error. Anyone from U M-W know if "run-time" evaluated values are definitely not

allowed for transfer_input_files (but are for executable).

 

cheers,

 

-ian.

Hi,
I posted a similar question a while ago and Todd Tannenbaum 
replied with the solution. (Thanks again, very useful.)

Use the + 
operator for overriding the values read by condor_submit with runtime evaluated 
classads like this:

Universe = vanilla
Executable = 
foo_$$(OPSYS).bat

Output = foo.out
+Out = 
"foo_$$(OPSYS)_$(PROCESS).out"

Error = foo.err
+Err = 
"foo_$$(OPSYS)_$(PROCESS).err"

Log = foo.log

# This is what you 
want, I think
# foo.in can be a dummy empty file
Transfer_input_files = 
foo.in
+TransferInput = 
"foo_$$(OPSYS).in"
.
.
.
