Charm++ parallel programming system

Hi folks,

I've just updated to 6.7.1 and have some code for custom array element placement using map objects that now breaks and I'm not sure how to fix it.

I used to override CkArrayMap's populateInitial() with

void populateInitial( int, CkArrayIndex& idx, void *msg, CkArrMgr *mgr ) override;

which now breaks, because it expects CkArrayOptions& as its 2nd argument:

ck-core/cklocation.h, line 96:

virtual void populateInitial(int arrayHdl,CkArrayOptions& options,void *ctorMsg,CkArrMgr *mgr);

The documentation, however, now recommends using

virtual void populateInitial(int arrayHdl, int numInitial, void *msg, CkArrMgr *mgr)

but the only overload in CkArrayMap is the one accepting CkArrayOptions& as its 2nd argument above.

How should I get the number of initial elements in my override of populateInitial()?

Thanks,

Jozsef
