new policy : for non standard conforming compilers,
we can skip the tests using new features using recent c++ features.
I.e. compilers below gcc 4.8.1, clang 3.3.
- All access to grid is now using the [] operator.
() always returns const, and is an evaluation over the domain.
- Now :
* () is always a call to evaluator (or a lazy expression).
* mesh_pt accepted by [] , both const and non const,
and not by ().
- Ported the libs (fourier et al.) but this break API.
- necessary otherwise the class gf and the namespace have
the same name, leading to some confusion, and need to qualify
some functions (specially on gcc).
Same naming conventions as arrays.
- A()(0) = 1
will not work any more if A is const, as it should be.
- Introduced the notion of const_view, simply done by a flag
(flag 0, for easy debug)
- changed the slice of ISP to use it (only on C++11 compliant compiler)
- Move BoundCheck Flags to 5.
- improve the mem_block and shared_block.
- the reference counting is now done in the mem_block and shared_block, removing the need of shared_ptr.
- speed tests shows that shared_ptr is very slow (due to thread safety?)
the new version is much better, though not perfect.
- Hence introducing weak views.
- also :
-- clean the guard mechanism for python (to allow returning from python without any python ref left).
-- clean code, add documentation for mem_block
-- remove nan init, which was not working, and corresponding test
-- serialisation of view still unchanged (need to forbid serialization of view ??).
- tests ok, incl. valgrind tests.
- introducing scalar_valued gf
- Change Fourier routines to run on scalar_valued,
and then use those routines to run on matrix_valued.
- Tools for slices of 2 variables functions
