* rename Cholesky to LLT
* rename CholeskyWithoutSquareRoot to LDLT
* rename MatrixBase::cholesky() to llt()
* rename MatrixBase::choleskyNoSqrt() to ldlt()
* make {LLT,LDLT}::solve() API consistent with other modules
Note that we are going to keep a source compatibility untill the next beta release.
E.g., the "old" Cholesky* classes, etc are still available for some time.
To be clear, Eigen beta2 should be (hopefully) source compatible with beta1,
and so beta2 will contain all the deprecated API of beta1. Those features marked
as deprecated will be removed in beta3 (or in the final 2.0 if there is no beta 3 !).
Also includes various updated in sparse Cholesky.
* replaced the Flags template parameter of Matrix by StorageOrder
and move it back to the 4th position such that we don't have to
worry about the two Max* template parameters
* extended EIGEN_USING_MATRIX_TYPEDEFS with the ei_* math functions
* remove the cast operators in the Geometry module: they are replaced by constructors
and new operator= in Matrix
* extended the operations supported by Rotation2D
* rewrite in solveTriangular:
- merge the Upper and Lower specializations
- big optimization of the path for row-major triangular matrices
* 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.
- removes much code
- 2.5x faster (even though LU uses complete pivoting contrary to what
inverse used to do!)
- there _were_ numeric stability problems with the partial pivoting
approach of inverse(), with 200x200 matrices inversion failed almost
half of the times (overflow). Now these problems are solved thanks to
complete pivoting.
* remove some useless stuff in LU
*in test/CMakeLists : modify EI_ADD_TEST so that 2nd argument is
additional compiler flags. used to add -O2 to test_product_large so it
doesn't take forever.
not allow to easily get the rank), fix a bug (which could have been
triggered by matrices having coefficients of very different
magnitudes).
Part: add an assert to prevent hard to find bugs
Swap: update comments
Note: in fact, inverse() always uses partial pivoting because the algo
currently used doesn't make sense with complete pivoting. No num
stability issue so far even with size 200x200. If there is any problem
we can of course reimplement inverse on top of LU.
pivoting for better numerical stability. For now the only application is
determinant.
* New determinant unit-test.
* Disable most of Swap.h for now as it makes LU fail (mysterious).
Anyway Swap needs a big overhaul as proposed on IRC.
* Remnants of old class Inverse removed.
* Some warnings fixed.
