h1. _artdaq_ Release Notes 1.12.11 (10-Jul-2015)

h2. Introduction

This version of _artdaq_ includes a number of enhancements and bug fixes, as described below.

Through _artdaq_core_ v1_04_16, this version of _artdaq_ can be built against _art_ v1_15_01 (s14), v1_14_03 (s12), v1_14_02 (s11), v1_13_02 (s8), or v1_13_01 (s7). It can also be built with _gcc_ v4_9_1 (e6) or v4_9_2 (e7) [both use -std=c++1y].  %{color:red}However, Please Note% that data files written by _artdaq_ when using _art_ v1_15_01 or v1_14_04 can not be read back, so these builds of _art_ should be avoided.

The initial builds on SciSoft include e7:s8 and e7:s11 builds.

Also, artdaq can be built with the Infiniband or Ethernet MPI libraries, and these are controlled by qualifiers _ib_ and _eth_.

The default set of qualifiers for this version of _artdaq_ is _e7:s11:eth_.
