As such, not all \ninformation was able to be captured in the transition. Below is\na complete record of the original redmine ticket.\n\nTicket number: 790\nStatus: Resolved\nProject: VisIt\nTracker: Feature\nPriority: Normal\nSubject: Enhance build_visit to better handle the third party library directory not existing.\nAssigned to: Eric Brugger\nCategory: \nTarget version: 2.3.1\nAuthor: Eric Brugger\nStart: 07/21/2011\nDue date: \n% Done: 100\nEstimated time: 2.0\nCreated: 07/21/2011 04:29 pm\nUpdated: 07/21/2011 04:53 pm\nLikelihood: \nSeverity: \nFound in version: \nImpact: 2 - Low\nExpected Use: 3 - Occasional\nOS: All\nSupport Group: Any\nDescription:\n The build_visit script will automatically create the third party library directory if it is named \".visit\" and it doesn't already exist. If the third party library directory name is not \".visit\" and it doesn't already exist, the script will display an error message and exit. This seems like reasonable behavior in case the user mistyped the name of the third party library directory. It would be better if the script prompted the user if it should create the directory and only exit if the user indicated that the script should not.\n\nComments:\nI committed revisions 15461 and 15463 to the 2.3 RC and trunk with the following change:I changed the behavior of the build_visit script when the user specifies the third party library directory and the directory doesn't exist. It used to print an error message and exit, now it prompts the user to determine if it should create the directory and only exits with an error if the user indicates that the script shouldn't create the directory. This resolves #790.M svn_bin/build_visit\n"}}
