- Replace internal::scalar_product_traits<A,B> by Eigen::ScalarBinaryOpTraits<A,B,OP>
- Remove the "functor_is_product_like" helper (was pretty ugly)
- Currently, OP is not used, but it is available to the user for fine grained tuning
- Currently, only the following operators have been generalized: *,/,+,-,=,*=,/=,+=,-=
- TODO: generalize all other binray operators (comparisons,pow,etc.)
- TODO: handle "scalar op array" operators (currently only * is handled)
- TODO: move the handling of the "void" scalar type to ScalarBinaryOpTraits
- Dynamic is now an invalid value
- introduce a HugeCost constant to be used for runtime-cost values or arbitrarily huge cost
- add sanity checks for cost values: must be >=0 and not too large
This change provides several benefits:
- it fixes shortcoming is some cost computation where the Dynamic case was not properly handled.
- it simplifies cost computation logic, and should avoid future similar shortcomings.
- it allows to distinguish between different level of dynamic/huge/infinite cost
- it should enable further simplifications in the computation of costs (save compilation time)
- remove most of the metaprogramming kung fu in MathFunctions.h (only keep functions that differs from the std)
- remove the overloads for array expression that were in the std namespace
