Apr 17, 2001:

The following release was announced April 17, 2001:

ErrorLogger v2.0.6; cvs rtag V02-00-06

In this release: A new capability --

Filtering and exclusion by sets of modules.

ELdestControl keeps two lists of modules, and has two new methods, used as follows:
• dest.respondToModule("*")
  Clear `ignoreModule' list, and respond to all messages, except those coming from any module that is later added to the `ignoreModule' list.
• dest.ignoreModule("name");
  Add this module to the `ignoreModule' list, and remove it (if present) from the `respondToModule' list.

• dest.ignoreModule("*");
  Clear `respondToModule' list, and filter out all messages, except those coming from any module that is later added to the `respondToModule' list.
• dest.respondToModule("name");
  Add this module to the `respondToModule' list, and remove it (if present) from the `ignoreModule' list.

Two existing routines have been re-written in terms of the new ones:

• dest.filterModule("a") has the same effect as
  dest.ignoreModule("*");
  dest.respondToModule("a");
• dest.excludeModule("a") has the same effect as
  dest.respondToModule("*");
  dest.ignoreModule("a");

Exceptions v2.0.2; cvs rtag V02-00-02

New features:
ZMexValidatedStyle
This is a new ZMexLogger behavior, which can be used instead of ZMexLogAlways to suppress the time stamp and the path portion of file name. This produces output suitable for automated validation.
ZMthrow_from (ex, line, file)
This is analogous to ZMthrow but outputs as the throwing line and file the information provided. Useful in the context of exception message preparation routines.
New set methods in ZMexception
All properties of an exception class inherited from ZMexception, which can be established via StandardDefinition, can now also be set at a later time. These include the new methods setSeverity(), setName(), and setFacility() alnong with existing methods setHandler() and setLogger().
Problem Resolution
Corrected deficiencies in the StandardDefinitions sequence of macros which would have made it awkward to enable namespaces.

CLHEP v1.6.3, cvs rtag V01-06-03

Polishing in Vector package:
• `NaN-proofing':
  No methods will silently produce infinities or NaN's.
  Every place which could potentially (due to peculiar argument values, roundoff, or other reasons) generate a NaN or infinity, or call system methods such as log or acos with an invalid argument, will first ZMthrow.
  Only if the user has caused this ZMthrow to be ignored will the program continue, having produced a NaN or infinity.
• Repaired code in Boost::rectify() which would have produced a spurious warning message.
• Removed a typo in the Formulas and Definitions document, in the definition of howParallel for HepLorentzVector.
Minor fix to Random package:
• All engine saveState() methods output endl at the end.
Minor reorganization in Matrix:
• The method Matrix::operator=(const HepRotation &) is moved out of Matrix.cc into its own file MatrixEqRotation.cc.
  • Moves toward decoupling Matrix from Vector.
  • Breakout was needed to be able to suppress warnings in linking under KAI without breaking linking under gcc 2.95.2.
