- For users : only change is :
H5::H5File in apps. to be replaced by triqs::h5::file, same API.
- using only the C API because :
- it is cleaner, better documented, more examples.
- it is the native hdf5 interface.
- simplify the installation e.g. on mac. Indeed, hdf5 is
usually installed without C++ interface, which is optional.
E.g. EPD et al., brew by default.
Also the infamous mpi+ hdf5_cpp bug, for which we have no clean solution.
- clean the notion of parent of a group. Not needed, better iterate function in C LT API.
- modified doc : no need for C++ bindings any more.
- modified cmake to avoid requiring CPP bindings.
- new parameter class :
parameters are viewed as form, built in C++, and filled in C++/python.
Each field of the form as a precise C++ type (erased using standard techniques).
First tests ok, to be reread/checked.
TODO : serialization is commented. Lead to long compilation time & large code
due to boost::serialization. Use h5 when possible.
- wrapper :
- separated the converters of the wrapped type in the TRIQS library
- necessary for parameters (it used outside an .so) and potentially
other codes, outside an .so module
