Temporary Readme file for Collaborators only.

To compile this Cython module to enable OpenMP multithreading (parallel kinematic wave):
1)Delete the files *.so (if any) in directory hydrological-modules
2) Inside the hydrological_modules folder, execute "python2 compile_kinematic_wave_parallel_tools.py build_ext --inplace"

Important: the module has to be compiled on the machine where the model is run - the resulting binary is not portable.

Then in the settings file the option "numberParallelThreadsKinematicWave" may take the following values:
- "0" : auto-detection of the machine/node's number of CPUs (all CPUs are used minus 1) (do not set it if other simulations are running on the same machine/node)
- "1" : serial execution (not parallel)
- "2", "3", ... : manual setting of the number of parallel threads.
(if exceeding the number of CPUs, the option is set to "0") -->
