Context:
As we have already implemented the
_validate_mcmc_optionshelper to directly check mcmc options in execution config constructor, it is also important to have it actually added to thepreprocesspipeline since with the decoupling betweenshotsanddevicethe only scenario when a device can get and validate the shots information will be thepreprocess.Given that, we would like to add the validator as a transform as well as keeping the original helper, before we entirely remove
shotsfromDeviceon the PennyLane side (which should take a very long time).Description of the Change:
