The gate is wrapped in a CMPITclPackagedCommandAll
which means that all ranks, including the root rank will execute it. All operations on
gates are done via the SpecTcl singleton API.
The API takes into
account the differences in tracing semantics; When it detects a
CHistogrammer
has been created (MPI_EVENT_SINK_RANK) it manipulates the gates
via that object so that its ownt tracing mechanisms will fire.
If, on the other hand, no CHistogrammer has been
created, it operates via the gate dictionary and the gate commands own
internal tracing scheme is used. Note that one pre-established trace feeds the
gate trace pump so that GUIs are appropriately notified of gate modifications.
