Version 0.9.5.112 |
50 |
|
51 |
Solver interface |
52 |
- all solvers and integrators are now built as 'external library' DLL/SOs. |
53 |
- new ASCENDSOLVERS environment variable gives additional search path location |
54 |
that is checked when attempting to satisfy IMPORT statements. |
55 |
- Fixed behaviour scons when lex/yacc not available. |
56 |
- Many ASC_DLLSPEC qualifiers added as result of the expanded use of external |
57 |
libraries. |
58 |
|
59 |
Solvers |
60 |
- CONOPT no longer needs to be present at buildtime. This was possible due |
61 |
to permission from Arne Drud to add the 'conopt.h' file to our source code. |
62 |
- BLAS and LINPACK are now embedded in the LSODE DLL/SO. They are not |
63 |
part of libascend, which makes the main DLL about 1 MB smaller. |
64 |
- Some bugs in the DOPRI5 integrator identified (full testing still not |
65 |
completed). |
66 |
- placeholder for a future TRON solver (work still to do on that) |
67 |
- work underway on the IPOPT optimisation solver. |
68 |
|
69 |
Model library |
70 |
- Equations of state models from Krishnan. |
71 |
- Added ASCEND port of the standard GAMS example problem. |
72 |
|
73 |
Windows installer |
74 |
- Added ability to download and install missing dependencies. This |
75 |
makes getting started with ASCEND much simpler for new users. |
76 |
- Added the user's manual (in PDF form) to the installer package. |
77 |
|
78 |
RPM package |
79 |
- A SUNDIALS RPM package has been submitted for inclusion in Fedora, making |
80 |
installation of ASCEND possible with a single download on that distro. |
81 |
- RPM divided into subpackages ascend, ascend-devel, ascend-doc. |
82 |
- Other work on building RPMs for a range of Linux platforms using |
83 |
the new OpenSUSE Build Service. |
84 |
|
85 |
DEB package |
86 |
- Fixed. |
