Feb 1, 2025February 2025 for stfc/PSyclone focused on delivering robust features, improving test coverage, and tightening code quality to accelerate reliable releases. Key features introduced include support for elemental functions in where clauses and a new check for unqualified use statements to catch potential issues early. Initial nowait support on parallel loops was implemented to enable more efficient parallel execution paths. In parallel, we added a targeted failing test to reproduce NEMO5-related issues, then delivered fixes and tests to address review feedback. A broad linting and code-quality pass was completed, alongside type-hint compatibility fixes and miscellaneous cleanups to improve maintainability. Overall, these efforts reduce defect risk, improve correctness of transformations, and strengthen CI reliability, enabling faster, safer iteration for users and downstream tools.
