|
27 January 2017
|
|
|
|
List of fixes included in this public patch since the public release 10.2.p02:
|
|
|
|
o Configuration:
|
|
-------------
|
|
+ CMake:
|
|
o Correctly export USolids/VecGeom settings to GNUmake configuration
|
|
scripts.
|
|
o Provided placeholder variable for adding setting of XercesC library
|
|
path. Addressing problem report #1877.
|
|
|
|
o Analysis
|
|
--------
|
|
+ Fixed incompatibility with ROOT 5.x and 6.x formats.
|
|
+ Fixed compilation warnings and MacOSX and Win64.
|
|
|
|
o Error-Propagation
|
|
-----------------
|
|
+ G4ErrorPhysicsList: replaced direct use of 'aParticleIterator' with
|
|
GetParticleIterator(), to allow for porting on clang-3.9 and XCode-8
|
|
on MacOS.
|
|
|
|
o Event:
|
|
-----
|
|
+ Fixed way of deleting G4PrimaryVertex objects to avoid stack overflow
|
|
for very large number of primary vertices.
|
|
+ Set polarization to pre-assigned decay products in G4PrimaryTransformer.
|
|
Addressing problem report #1914.
|
|
|
|
o Geometry:
|
|
--------
|
|
+ magnetic-field:
|
|
o Fixed G4ClassicalRK4 header with protection against multiple inclusions.
|
|
+ management:
|
|
o Moved initialisation of G4GeomSplitter thread-local data to be inline
|
|
along with generic template type; moved accessors/modifiers for splitter
|
|
data to non-inline in G4Region, G4LogicalVolume and G4VPhysicalVolume.
|
|
Fixing compilation/linking errors on clang-3.9 and XCode-8 on MacOS.

|
+ navigation:
|
|
o Fixed recursion test for overlaps in G4GeomTestVolume to iterate on
|
|
all daughters.
|
|
o G4ReplicaNavigation: use Cartesian tolerance in distance evaluation
|
|
in DistanceToOutPhi(). Addressing problem report #1902.
|
|
o G4Navigator: in ComputeStep() force abortion of event if track gets
|
|
really stuck, but avoid check for overlaps if push-verbosity is set to
|
|
false. Extended printout for stuck tracks, to show also local
|
|
coordinates.
|
|
o Fix in G4Navigator::GetGlobalExitNormal() to synchronise caching of
|
|
'fExitNormalGlobalFrame' before returning.

|
o G4SubtractionSolid: directly return previously computed distance in
|
|
DistanceToIn(p,v) if no progress is made (zero step).
|
|
+ solids/CSG:
|
|
o Disabled check for intersection of cut planes in G4CutTubs constructor,
|
|
as too strict and not necessary. Addressing problem report #1887.
|
|
o Use G4RandFlat instead of RandFlat.
|
|
+ solids/specific:
|
|
o Moved accessors/modifiers for splitter data to non-inline in

|
|
o Fixed minor typo in function Create() for G4Polycone, G4Polyhedra and
|
|
G4GenericPolycone. Fixed minor typos in G4GenericTrap::SurfaceNormal()
|
|
and G4VTwistSurface::CurrentStatus::ResetfDone().
|
|
Addressing problem report #1876.
|
|
o Use G4RandFlat instead of RandFlat.
|
|
+ volumes:
|
|

|
GetLevels() instead of GetNewLevels() from G4NavigationHistoryPool,
|
|
to favor re-use of already allocated space.
|
|
Corrected printout in streaming operator.
|
|
o Moved initialisation of G4GeomSplitter thread-local data to be inline
|
|
along with generic template type.
|

|
|
symbol conflicts on Windows.
|
|
+ Made initialisation of G4TWorkspacePool thread-local data to be inline
|
|
along with generic template type. Fixing compilation/linking errors on
|
|
clang-3.9 and XCode-8 on MacOS.
|
|
+ Fixed compilation warning on MacOS Sierra in MT mode in function
|
|
G4Threading::G4GetPidId().
