From: David Wells Date: Sun, 16 Aug 2015 19:00:42 +0000 (-0400) Subject: Remove a gcc-2.95 BlockVectorIterators workaround. X-Git-Tag: v8.4.0-rc2~585^2~1 X-Git-Url: https://gitweb.dealii.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ec3acfa63a0b13f5cf903728cbf7c709296c29c5;p=dealii.git Remove a gcc-2.95 BlockVectorIterators workaround. Older versions of GCC had difficulty with templated code comparing iterators with different constness. This is no longer a limitation. --- diff --git a/include/deal.II/lac/block_vector_base.h b/include/deal.II/lac/block_vector_base.h index 575a087a23..241af0b188 100644 --- a/include/deal.II/lac/block_vector_base.h +++ b/include/deal.II/lac/block_vector_base.h @@ -208,18 +208,6 @@ namespace internal * constant and we again have that the iterator satisfies the requirements * of a random access iterator. * - * The implementation of this class has to work around some problems in - * compilers and standard libraries.
