- 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
Renamed meta_{true|false} to {true|false}_type, meta_if to conditional, is_same_type to is_same, un{ref|pointer|const} to remove_{reference|pointer|const} and makeconst to add_const.
Changed boolean type 'ret' member to 'value'.
Changed 'ret' members refering to types to 'type'.
Adapted all code occurences.
* Now completely generic so all standard integer types (like char...) are supported.
** add unit test for that (integer_types).
* NumTraits does no longer inherit numeric_limits
* All math functions are now templated
* Better guard (static asserts) against using certain math functions on integer types.
* add a new Eigen2Support module including Cwise, Flagged, and some other deprecated stuff
* add a few cwiseXxx functions
* adapt a few modules to use cwiseXxx instead of the .cwise() prefix
That means a lot of features which were available for sparse matrices
via the dense (and super slow) implemention are no longer available.
All features which make sense for sparse matrices (aka can be implemented efficiently) will be
implemented soon, but don't expect to see an API as rich as for the dense path.
Other changes:
* no block(), row(), col() anymore.
* instead use .innerVector() to get a col or row vector of a matrix.
* .segment(), start(), end() will be back soon, not sure for block()
* faster cwise product
* fix issues in Product revealed by this test
* in Dot.h forbid mixing of different types (at least for now, might allow real.dot(complex) in the future).
Derived to MatrixBase.
* the optimization of eval() for Matrix now consists in a partial
specialization of ei_eval, which returns a reference type for Matrix.
No overriding of eval() in Matrix anymore. Consequence: careful,
ei_eval is no longer guaranteed to give a plain matrix type!
For that, use ei_plain_matrix_type, or the PlainMatrixType typedef.
* so lots of changes to adapt to that everywhere. Hope this doesn't
break (too much) MSVC compilation.
* add code examples for the new image() stuff.
* lower a bit the precision for floats in the unit tests as
we were already doing some workarounds in inverse.cpp and we got some
failed tests.
- 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
