Changes from 0.2 to 0.3

New features

  • removed supply_demand and action_building namespace. closes #248.

  • changed resource creation to take this ptr instead of context ptr. Removed context arg from Material::CreateUntracked. Made untracked resources have an id of zero instead of an id of garbage. fixed mat doc comments to use new res_buf method names.

  • cleaned up resource buf interface. Added some basic templating to eliminate need for separate mat_buff

  • added timestamp to resource table.

  • sorted lists of files/includes alphabetically

  • added header_impl file

  • fixed logger macro issue from namespace removal and added a test to catch it at compile time in the future

  • alphabetized cyclus.h

  • solverptr to solver::ptr

  • moved function type pointers to function::ptr

  • moved VariablePtr to Variable::Ptr

  • removed additional cyclus:: prepends from implementation files

  • removed extraneous cyclus namespace from fac_agent impl

  • removed extraneous cyclus namespace from comp_math impl

  • removed extraneous cyclus namespace from hdf_back impl

  • moved solver interface impl under cyclus namespace

  • move symbolic functions into a different class name

  • moved all files out of optim dirs into their respective top levels

  • renamed cyclopts to optim

  • change module install dir to not be split into separate fac, reg, inst subdirs. Still need to fix schema building and env class and dynamic_loading class correspondingly. made Env::ListModules more robust and include CYCLUS_MODULE_PATH env var dirs in search. Made BuildMasterSchema not care about agent type namespacing subdirs.

  • fixed some gcsg issues and a typo

  • made timer init method not reset previous timer config (e.g. listeners) - this caused confusion and debugging for me in the past

  • made timer ticker registering more robust. Search env var dirs before install dirs for dyn modules. change default dyn module install dir to lib/cyclus instead of lib/Agents

  • added hard coded version and more robust –tags flag to git describe for version.

  • this should make CI pass… not sure if its what we want, though.

  • updated install script with new structure

  • made agent test files install to share dir, fixes #559

  • docs now in the top level directory, and a little clean up. fixes #602

  • docs currently build

  • removed cyclus namespace from stubs

  • moved stub directory to top level, made stubs a separate library, incorporated stub tests into cyclus unit tests

  • a little cleaning before stubbing

  • enabled testing in new build environment. simplified test module directory structure and building.

  • gtest library builds

  • added cli to at the top of the directory structure

  • actually adds top level cmake file..

  • currently builds cycluscore from top-level directory

  • encapsulated stubs namespace in cyclus namespace per gcsg

  • redisabled facility tests as that ‘s a larger issue than this PR

  • added include guards

  • added stub market

  • added stub inst and region. updated stub facility.

  • removed any stubs that aren’t facs, regions, insts, or agents

  • updated namespace name to reflect directory name

  • made mock fac/inst/region/market classes to be used with testing. added the stub facility in a new stub namespace and related tests.

  • added initial stub directory and adjusted cmake files to include their tests.

  • moved all dynamic loading into xml_file_loader. Added a method for listing installed/discoverable dynamic modules to env class. added rng schema methods to test agents and removed rng files from them. removed rng installation from cmake module macro. added master and module schema dumping to cyclus binary. added schema agent test (that schema parses). moved heavy stuff out of xml-file-loader constructor. renamed LoadAll to LoadSim.

  • i think moving loglevel and the macros into the same namespace encapsulation is more promising… still unable to confirm.

  • finishes remaining doxygen warnings

  • I believe that this will fix the warning stemming from logger.h, but I do not see the warning on my machine, so I can’t be sure

  • fixed begincode error

  • removed verbose linking flag

  • fixes build error for macs, moves mac linker flag to top of cmake file to set the flag for all compiled libraries in the build

  • added cli flag for printing cyclus include dir

  • removed pesky cout

  • removed extraneous string var

  • adjusted env var setting to append the current var if it was set

  • added robustness in the environmental tests by resetting the environment variable and the dynamic loading tests by making sure to delete and close opened library modules.

  • test driver now adds the build directory to the cyclus module path. fixes #592. note that this overwrites the global module variable only for the test driver’s environment.

  • found out that boost has a installed called bjam. bjam has an option –layout which can take the form tagged. tagged adds -mt and -<version_number> to a library. if multithreading is on (which it is by default), it must find a library with the -mt tag. I was able to turn off multi threading for it to find the boost libraries installed in filespace/groups/cnerg/cyclus_dependencies. I’d like to leave the comment there for posterity. this set of commits closes #521.

  • added a message to determine which libraries were being used

  • updated readme’s boost version

  • fixed null-padding on strings issue. changed set to group so Anthony is happy.

  • changed hdf5 ext to .h5. Hdf5Back constructor takes std::string

  • adds better doc comment to hdf5back class. Uncomments the db file deleting line.

  • added hdf5back test

  • added custom backend specification to App.cp via output file extension

  • rewrote hdf5 backend to use C API. Made Sqlite destructor virtual

  • refactored hdf5 back by splitting large code into smaller functions.

  • created hdf5 backend - seems to be working. Probably could use some performance tweaking.
