From 838df29b3dd3c2ff3acf67f684a3014870480582 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Wells Date: Mon, 20 May 2019 14:14:38 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Summarize incompatible changes. This list is a bit subjective: I suspect users are not using some of the changed interfaces that deal with, e.g., implementing hp FEM. --- 9.1/paper.tex | 17 +++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/9.1/paper.tex b/9.1/paper.tex index aed9c8a..346c226 100644 --- a/9.1/paper.tex +++ b/9.1/paper.tex @@ -404,7 +404,6 @@ talk about the new programs; also mention updating for C++11 style %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \subsection{Incompatible changes} -\marginpar{Update after the release} The 9.1 release includes \href{https://dealii.org/developer/doxygen/deal.II/changes_between_9_0_1_and_9_1_0.html} {around 15 incompatible changes}; see \cite{changes91}.

However, some are worth mentioning: \begin{itemize} -\item TODO +\item The \texttt{VectorView} class was removed. We recommend either copying the + vector subset into a \texttt{Vector} or using a \texttt{BlockVector}. +\item The function \texttt{Subscriptor::subscribe} now requires a pointer to a + \texttt{std::atomic} that tracks whether or not the pointer to the + subscribed-to object is still valid. +\item The \texttt{ConstraintMatrix} class gained a template parameter for scalar + type and was been renamed \texttt{AffineConstraints}. Several methods that + take vectors or matrices as arguments, + such as \texttt{AffineConstraints::distribute\_local\_to\_global()}, + now require that all matrix and vector arguments have matching number + types. +\item Similarly, the functions \texttt{create\_mass\_matrix} and + \texttt{create\_boundary\_mass\_matrix} in the \texttt{MatrixCreator} + namespace no longer + support matrix and vector objects of different types. \end{itemize} -- 2.39.5
