|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
24th February 2003
|
|
|
|
List of fixes included in this public patch to release 5.0:
|
|
|
|
o Config:
|
|
------
|
|
- Added experimental setup WIN32-VC7.gmk for Windows .NET VC++ compiler.
|
|
- Generalised identification of WIN32 specific setups in core scripts.
|
|
- Forced silent generation of dependencies.
|
|
- Configure script: fixed GNUmakefile access problem for correct execution
|
|
of flags/libs command options. Added automatic recognition of 'Darwin' OS.
|
|
- source/GNUmakefile: included patch to release 5.0.
|
|
|
|
o Electromagnetic processes (low-energy):
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
- Minor fix in G4QAOLowEnergyLoss to use G4Poisson distribution.
|
|
|
|
o Electromagnetic processes (standard):
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
+ standard:
|
|
- Fix for compound materials in G4eBremsstrahlungModel.
|
|
- Minor fix in G4PAIonisation and G4PAIxSection to use G4Poisson
|
|
distribution.
|
|
+ muons:
|
|
- Fix for compound materials in G4MuBremsstrahlungModel and
|
|
G4MuPairProductionModel.
|
|
+ xrays:
|
|
- G4VXTRenergyLoss: removed reduntant headers inclusions and ordered
|
|
inclusion for complex numbers to allow porting on Windows .NET VC++.
|
|
- Minor fix in G4Cerenkov, G4ForwardXrayTR and G4VXTRenergyLoss to use
|
|
G4Poisson distribution.
|
|
|
|
o General processes:
|
|
-----------------
|
|
+ optical:
|
|
- Fix in calculation of polarization for perpendicular incidence
|
|
in G4OpBoundaryProcess. Fixes bug report #442.
|
|
|
|
o Geometry:
|
|
--------
|
|
+ magnetic-field:
|
|
- Removed some redundant inclusions of headers.
|
|
+ management:
|
|
- G4VSolid.cc: restored original conditions for extent clipping in
|
|
method ClipPolygon().
|
|
+ solids/Boolean:
|
|
- Added set/get functions Set/GetVolumesNameExtension() for volume-name
|
|
extension in G4ReflectionFactory. By default now the factory assigns
|
|
"_refl" postfix to name of reflected volumes/solids.
|
|
- Assumed less strict condition in the G4ReflectionFactory::CheckScale()
|
|
method, to avoid precision problems with imported rotation matrices.
|
|
+ solids/CSG:
|
|
- G4Cons: enhanced treatment of phi-sections, according to
|
|
algorithm used also in G4Tubs.
|
|
+ volumes:
|
|
- Fix in G4GeometryMessenger to check for geometry closed when commands
|
|
are applied. Command /geometry/navigator/reset and test commands apply
|
|
only when system is in "Idle" state.
|
|
- G4VCurvedTrajectoryFilter: fixed initialisation of data member
|
|
in constructor. Fixes crash in visualization under in some setups.
|
|
- G4IdentityTrajectoryFilter: added comments for the Software Reference
|
|
Manual.
|
|
|
|
o Global:
|
|
------
|
|
- Exclude definition of min/max for Windows .NET VC++ compiler
|
|
in globals.hh.
|
|
- Use SystemOfUnits.h and PhysicalConstants.h from CLHEP instead of
|
|
internal local copies.
|
|
|
|
o Hadronic processes:
|
|
------------------
|
|
+ cross_sections
|
|
o Fixed bug in Newton method for electro-nuclear cross-sections.
|
|
+ management:
|
|
o Fixed a missing data-member initialization in G4InelasticInteraction.
|
|
Fixes bug report #455.
|
|
o G4EnergyRangeManager, G4HadronicProcess: adopt exception handling for
|
|
'no model found' case.
|
|
+ models/chiral_inv_phase_space
|
|
o Minor fix for memory leak.
|
|
o Fixed calculation of the equivalent photon in electro-nuclear.
|
|
+ models/generator/de_excitation
|
|
o Improved performance for gamma evaporation (~30%).
|
|
o Minor fix in method G4ExcitationHandler::transform() when calling
|
|
erase(), to allow porting on Windows .NET VC++ compiler.
|
|
+ models/generator/high_energy
|
|
o G4TheoFSGenerator: fix for semantics change in track, added Clear()
|
|
call to particle-change vector.

|
o Fix in sampling of gammas, in case internal conversion data are
|
|
available in breit frame.
|
|
o Fixed recoil direction distribution for 14MeV neutrons in Silicon.
|
|

|
|
irreproducibility.

|
|
porting on Windows .NET VC++ compiler.

|
|
in G4MCTSimParticle and G4MCTSimVertex.

|
|
Moved some of HepRepXMLWriter's warning messages to debug blocks.
|
|
- VRML: minor fix to VRML2 driver in G4VRML2SceneHandlerFunc to
|
|
adopt G4String.
|
|
- Included G4VisManager::Draw methods for hits and trajectories.
|
|
|
|
