I have a suggestion. Could Charm++ #define Classname_SDAG_CODE to be blank if there is no SDAG code? Currently it isn't defined at all so it generates a compiler error if you put Classname_SDAG_CODE in a chare that has no SDAG code. This is inconvenient if I'm writing a chare that I know will have SDAG code, but I haven't gotten to that yet, and I want to check that what I have done so far compiles. Sure, I could leave out the Classname_SDAG_CODE for now, but then I have to remember to go back and add it later. It seems like defining it to be blank wouldn't do any harm, and programmers could just make a habit of putting Classname_SDAG_CODE in every Chare class without having to think about whether it needs it or not.
