Requires correct function value labels in results file

Specification
Alias: None
Arguments: None
Default: Function value labels optional
Description
The labeled
keyword directs Dakota to enforce a stricter results file
format and enables more detailed error reporting.
When the labeled
keyword is used, function values in results
files must be accompanied by their corresponding descriptors. If the
user did not supply response responses-descriptors in her Dakota
input file, then Dakota auto-generated descriptors are expected.
Distinct error messages are emitted for function values that are out-of-order, repeated, or missing. Labels that appear without a function value and unexpected data are also reported as errors. Dakota attempts to report all errors in a results file, not just the first it encounters. After reporting results file errors, Dakota aborts.
Labels for analytic gradients and Hessians currently are not supported.
Although the labeled
keyword is optional, its use is recommended to help catch
and identify problems with results files. The User’s Manual contains further information
about the results file format.
Default Behavior <p> By default, Dakota does not require labels for function values, and ignores them if they are present.</p>
