Hmm, I'm still not sure. All descriptions of exponential Euler that I can find seem to state the same thing, e.g. here from some [lecture notes](http://www1.maths.leeds.ac.uk/~jitse/strath09.pdf): ...

I still haven't made my mind up about this, @thesamovar what do you think? But I agree that introducing this change now (just before a new release) would potentially break...

I actually wonder whether the exception hook was a good idea in the first place. It makes every exception look like a Brian problem and it does not really seem...

> Ah OK I thought we were doing that in the exception hook. So all that is doing is mentioning to look in the log files? In which case yeah...

You'll have to use: ```Python device.reinit() device.activate() ``` between the runs (see http://brian2.readthedocs.io/en/stable/user/computation.html#multiple-builds). > Moreover is there a way of getting rid of the output folder that is created (codegen)...

Hmm, this is odd. The name system is independent of the `device`. We keep track of objects via weak references and this system can be somewhat unpredictable because those references...

I see. The way we handle these things is not great, I think we have to do something about it... We fill `self.networks` when you do `device.build`, by looking at...

I think the situation here has not changed much, in the sense that we are still unsure about the typical models that are used, hence about the appropriate syntax for...

Good discussion! I think the easiest thing to do in the short term is to add the `disconnect` function -- I don't think there's much to discuss syntax-wise and also...
