Geant4 10.1 - patch-03 Release Notes | ||
------------------------------------ | ||
|
||
5 February 2016 | ||
|
||
List of fixes included in this public patch since the public release 10.1.p02: | ||
|
||
o Configuration: | ||
------------- | ||
+ CMake: | ||
o Updated Apple Clang detection to work on Xcode-7. | ||
o Always use libc++ with Apple Clang so that std-supporting library is | ||
used for C++11 mode on older Mac systems where libstdc++ is the default. | ||
o Updated std-flag setting rules. | ||
+ GNUMake: | ||
o Updated X11 settings in MacOS platform. | ||
o Added settings for C++ standards in platform specific scripts. | ||
|
||
o Analysis: | ||
-------- | ||
+ Fixed G4Analysis::Tokenize() which was failing when processsing a string | ||
containing opening double quota without a closing one. | ||
+ Fixed handling ntuples created in MT mode on master thread | ||
This fixes the problem reported in hypernews (#459) and the problem | ||
of deleting non-empty Root file containing only ntuples. | ||
|
||
o Geometry: | ||
-------- | ||
+ divisions: | ||
o Fix for use of rotation matrix in G4VDivisionParameterisation in | ||
MT-mode; use thread-local pointer for rotation matrix as member of the | ||
class G4VDivisionParameterisation and set it to suto-delete. | ||
Removed unnecessary thread-local verbose flag. | ||
Addressing problem reports #1743 and #1758. | ||
o Set as unsupported divisions of polycone and polyhedra in MT-mode. | ||
+ magneticfield: | ||
o Added check in G4ChordFinder against number of iterations in | ||
FindNextChord(), to identify potential cases of lack of convergence. | ||
o Better diagnostics text in case of errors in G4FieldTrack and | ||
G4UniformMagField. | ||
o Added explanation comment in G4MagHelicalSteper. | ||
+ navigation: | ||
o G4MultiLevelLocator::EstimateIntersectionPoint(): fix for logic error | ||
in keeping consistent candidate intersection. Copes with case that a | ||
candidate intersection is not found in the next segment (typically in | ||
the 'second half' part). | ||
Ensure that splitting of step (new level/depth) advances the required | ||
length, used when adding a new level/depth. | ||
Revised condition of 'while' loop which ensures that a new candidate | ||
intersection exists. Corrected the resetting of 'first_section' flag. | ||
Replaced fatal error for exceeding max steps with warning and signal | ||
'looping' for too many steps; G4PropagatorInField detects this | ||
condition, and identifies it as a 'Looping Particle' which is then | ||
flagged; the calling class (Transportation, PathFinder) is expected | ||
to stop the tracking of this particle after a few of these steps. | ||
Addressing issue seen by ALICE (non-finishing of step due to poor | ||
advances). | ||
o G4VIntersectionLocator: added new logging methods & revised interfaces. | ||
o G4NavigationLogger: added method to report issue with normal that | ||
is the result of applying a rotation. | ||
o G4NormalNavigation, G4VoxelNavigation: added check of rotated exit | ||
normal. | ||
o Relaxed condition for zero or almost-zero steps in G4ReplicaNavigation | ||
and G4Navigator, to allow for faster progression in case of stuck tracks | ||
in 3D scoring meshes. Addressing old problem report #1432. | ||
o Fix in G4ReplicaNavigation::ComputeStep() for correct setting of copyNo | ||
for particle entering. Fixes issue of negative copyNo observed in nested | ||
replica setups. Addressing problem report #1634. | ||
o Moved check for overlaps in G4Navigator::ComputeStep() within G4VERBOSE. | ||
Addressing problem report #1811. | ||
+ solids/Boolean: | ||
o Checked for potential never-ending loops. Replaced while-do loop with | ||
bounded for-loop in G4IntersectionSolid::DistanceToIn(p,v). | ||
Also addressing problem report #1821. | ||
+ solids/CSG: | ||
o Introduced check in G4Sphere::DistanceToIn(p,v) for concave Theta and | ||
point located on the origin. Also make proper use of radial tolerance in | ||
DistanceToOut(p,v). | ||
o Fixed Coverity defect in G4CutTubs::GetMaxMinZ(). | ||
+ solids/specific: | ||
o Added specialised implementation for GetCubicVolume() in | ||
G4TessellatedSolid. Added debug printouts withing G4SPECSDEBUG for | ||
DistanceToIn/Out(p,v) to identify potential wrong responses. | ||
o Removed redundant condition in G4Polyhedra and G4polycone | ||
SetOriginalParameters() method. | ||
o Minor code cleanup in G4SurfaceVoxelizer. | ||
o Checked for potential never-ending loops. | ||
+ volumes: | ||
o Enabled paramerisation by solid type in G4GeometryWorkspace in MT-mode. | ||
Assumes solids being parameterised are declared thread-local in the | ||
user's parameterisation class and allocated just once. | ||
|
||
o Global: | ||
------ | ||
+ Tune radial tolerance to same value as for Cartesian tolerance in | ||
G4GeometryTolerance. | ||
+ Corrected conditions for proper treatment of gcc-5 in tls.hh and | ||
G4Threading.hh. | ||
+ Removed unused and buggy operator=(const G4String&) in G4SubString. | ||
Added string length check in G4String::operator==(). | ||
Added missing 'inline' specification to functions in G4String. | ||
+ Force use of G4MT wrappers for Intel-icc compiler for random numbers. | ||
+ Updated date and version for 10.1.p03. | ||
|
||
o Materials: | ||
--------- | ||
+ G4NistElementBuilder: fixed typo in printout. | ||
Addressing problem report #1786. | ||
|
||
o Parameterisations: | ||
----------------- | ||
+ gflash: fix for Zeff wrongly computed as ( W1*Z2 ) + ( W2*Z1 ), with Z1 | ||
and Z2 swapped. Addressing problem report #1719. | ||
|
||
o Particles: | ||
--------- | ||
+ Fixed wrong argument order CreateIon(A,Z,LL,0.0) in G4IonTable to | ||
CreateIon(Z,A,LL,0.0). | ||
+ Fixed setting of mass in decay parent particle. | ||
Addressing problem report #1820. | ||
|
||
o Persistency: | ||
----------- | ||
+ GDML: | ||
o Use relaxed precision constant for matrix to angle formula evaluation | ||
in G4GDMLWriteDefine, to allow for proper treatment of singularities. | ||
Fixes issues of misplaced volumes in exported geometries of complex | ||
detectors. | ||
o Rectify rotation matrices in reading and writing GDML files to reduce | ||
spurious roundoff errors in stored values. | ||
|
||
o Physics Lists | ||
------------- | ||
+ constructors/limiters: | ||
o G4ParallelWorldPhysics: fixed process order index for | ||
G4ParallelWorldProcess to 9900 to make sure it is registered | ||
prior to G4OpBoundaryProcess. | ||
|
||
o Processes - Electromagnetic: | ||
--------------------------- | ||
+ xrays: | ||
o G4VTransitionRadiation, G4VXTRenergyLoss: fixed process sub-type. | ||
|
||
o Processes - Generic: | ||
------------------- | ||
+ scoring: | ||
o G4ParallelWorldProcess: fixed processType from 'fParameterized' | ||
to 'fParallel' and set processSubType to 491. | ||
o Fixed Coverity defects. | ||
|
||
o Processes - Hadronic: | ||
-------------------- | ||
+ cross_sections: | ||
o G4NeutronInelasticXS, G4NeutronCaptureXS: fixed isotope cross-sections | ||
including retrieve, data management, isotope x-section and isotope | ||
selection. Fixed Coverity defects. | ||
+ models/cascade: | ||
o G4CascadeCoalescence: added explicit inclusion of | ||
G4InuclElementaryParticle header to address compiler error from Cray | ||
(as reported in Configuration Hypernews Forum #1764). | ||
+ models/coherent_elastic: | ||
o G4DiffuseElastic: bug-fix in BuildAngleTable() to improve the angle | ||
bin accuracy at high energies. | ||
+ models/im_r_matrix: | ||
o Fixed compiler warning in clang-3.6. | ||
|
||
o Run: | ||
--- | ||
+ G4PhysicsListHelper: add entry for G4ParallelWorldProcess. | ||
+ G4RunManager, G4WorkerRunManager: fixed process order index of | ||
G4ParallelWorldProcess to 9900 to make sure it is registered | ||
prior to G4OpBoundaryProcess. | ||
|
||
o Tracking: | ||
-------- | ||
+ G4SteppingManager: fix to properly set 'OriginTouchableHandle' for the | ||
primary track. Addressing problem report #1773. | ||
|
||
o Examples: | ||
