* kill EIGEN_DONT_ALIGN_HEAP option (one should use EIGEN_DONT_ALIGN)
* rename EIGEN_DONT_ALIGN_STACK to EIGEN_DONT_ALIGN_STATICALLY. hope it's a better name.
as gcc on ARM (both CodeSourcery 4.4.1 used and experimental 4.5) fail to
ensure proper alignment with __attribute__((aligned(16))). This has to be
fixed upstream to remove the workarounds.
* replace implicit constructor AngleAxis(QuaternionBase&) by an explicit one, it seems ambiguous for the compiler
* remove explicit constructor with conversion type quaternion(Quaternion&): conflict between constructor.
* modify EIGEN_INHERIT_ASSIGNEMENT_OPERATORS to suit Quaternion class
* renaming, e.g. LU ---> FullPivLU
* split tests framework: more robust, e.g. dont generate empty tests if a number is skipped
* make all remaining tests use that splitting, as needed.
* Fix 4x4 inversion (see stable branch)
* Transform::inverse() and geo_transform test : adapt to new inverse() API, it was also trying to instantiate inverse() for 3x4 matrices.
* CMakeLists: more robust regexp to parse the version number
* misc fixes in unit tests
now we also align to 8byte boundary fixed-size objects that are multiple of 8 bytes.
That's only useful for now for double, not e.g. for Vector2f, but that didn't seem to hurt. Am I missing something? Do you prefer that we don't align Vector2f at all?
Also, improvements in test_unalignedassert.
---> question: do we change the prefix eigen2/ to eigen3/ now?
no, better wait until we've also changed the repository name
* more message improvements: "Install Eigen" was unclear as it left
out other things like the BLAS library
that eigen2 owes all its performance to nonstandard restrict keyword.
well, this can also improve portability in case some compiler doesn't have __restrict.
Until now, the user had to edit the source code to do that.
Internally, add EIGEN_ALIGN that takes into account both EIGEN_DONT_ALIGN.and
EIGEN_ARCH_WANTS_ALIGNMENT. From now on, only EIGEN_ALIGN should be used to
test whether we want to align.
disable them (-DEIGEN_FAST_MATH=0)
* add a specialization of MatrixBase::operator*(RealScalar) for fast
"matrix of complex" times scalar products (even more useful for
autodiff scalar types)
DiagonalCoeffs. The current API is simply:
m.diagonal<1>() => 1st super diagonal
m.diagonal<-2>() => the 2nd sub diagonal
I'll add a code snippet once we agree on this API.
