- in matrix-matrix product, static assert on the two scalar types to be the same.
- Similarly in CwiseBinaryOp. POTENTIALLY CONTROVERSIAL: we don't allow anymore binary
ops to take two different scalar types. The functors that we defined take two args
of the same type anyway; also we still allow the return type to be different.
Again the reason is that different scalar types are incompatible with vectorization.
Better have the user realize explicitly what mixing different numeric types costs him
in terms of performance.
See comment in CwiseBinaryOp constructor.
- This allowed to fix a little mistake in test/regression.cpp, mixing float and double
- Remove redundant semicolon (;) after static asserts
* remove the automatic resizing feature of operator =
* add function Matrix::set() to be used when the previous
behavior is wanted
* the default constructor of dynamic-size matrices now
creates a "null" matrix (data=0, rows = cols = 0)
instead of a 1x1 matrix
* fix UnixX typos ;)
* bugfix in Dot unroller
* added special random generator for the unit tests and reduced the tolerance threshold by an order of magnitude
this fixes issues with sum.cpp but other tests still failed sometimes, this have to be carefully checked...
* fix .normalized() so that Random().normalized() works; since the return
type became complicated to write down i just let it return an actual
vector, perhaps not optimal.
* add Sparse/CMakeLists.txt. I suppose that it was intentional that it
didn't have CMakeLists, but in <=2.0 releases I'll just manually remove
Sparse.
- added a MapBase base xpr on top of which Map and the specialization
of Block are implemented
- MapBase forces both aligned loads (and aligned stores, see below) in expressions
such as "x.block(...) += other_expr"
* Significant vectorization improvement:
- added a AlignedBit flag meaning the first coeff/packet is aligned,
this allows to not generate extra code to deal with the first unaligned part
- removed all unaligned stores when no unrolling
- removed unaligned loads in Sum when the input as the DirectAccessBit flag
* Some code simplification in CacheFriendly product
* Some minor documentation improvements
* introduce packet(int), make use of it in linear vectorized paths
--> completely fixes the slowdown noticed in benchVecAdd.
* generalize coeff(int) to linear-access xprs
* clarify the access flag bits
* rework api dox in Coeffs.h and util/Constants.h
* improve certain expressions's flags, allowing more vectorization
* fix bug in Block: start(int) and end(int) returned dyn*dyn size
* fix bug in Block: just because the Eval type has packet access
doesn't imply the block xpr should have it too.
* make the conj functor vectorizable: it is just identity in real case,
and complex doesn't use the vectorized path anyway.
* fix bug in Block: a 3x1 block in a 4x4 matrix (all fixed-size)
should not be vectorizable, since in fixed-size we are assuming
the size to be a multiple of packet size. (Or would you prefer
Vector3d to be flagged "packetaccess" even though no packet access
is possible on vectors of that type?)
* rename:
isOrtho for vectors ---> isOrthogonal
isOrtho for matrices ---> isUnitary
* add normalize()
* reimplement normalized with quotient1 functor
ei_xpr_copy to evaluate args when needed. Had to introduce an ugly
trick with ei_unref as when the XprCopy type is a reference one can't
directly access member typedefs such as Scalar.
to disable eigen's asserts without disabling one's own program's
asserts. Notice that Eigen code should now use ei_assert()
instead of assert().
* Remove findBiggestCoeff() as it's now almost redundant.
* Improve echelon.cpp: inner for loop replaced by xprs.
* remove useless "(*this)." here and there. I think they were
first introduced by automatic search&replace.
* fix compilation in Visitor.h (issue triggered by echelon.cpp)
* improve comment on swap().
internal classes: AaBb -> ei_aa_bb
IntAtRunTimeIfDynamic -> ei_int_if_dynamic
unify UNROLLING_LIMIT (there was no reason to have operator= use
a higher limit)
etc...
Finally the importing macro is named EIGEN_BASIC_PUBLIC_INTERFACE
because it does not only import the ei_traits, it also makes the base class
a friend, etc.
template parameter "Scalar" is removed. This is achieved by introducting a
template <typename Derived> struct Scalar to achieve a forward-declaration of
the Scalar typedefs.
- compatible with current STL's functors as well as with the extention proposal (TR1)
* thanks to the above, Cast and ScalarMultiple have been removed
* benchmark_suite is more flexible (compiler and matrix size)
and long double.
-define scalar-multiple operators only for the current Scalar type;
thanks to Gael for expaining how to make the compiler understand
when automatic casting is needed.
-take ScalarMultiple take only 1 template param, again.
We lose some flexibility especially when dealing with complex numbers,
but we gain a lot of extensibility to new scalar types.
