— use a std::map for storing block derivatives
— remove redundant ModelTree::first_chain_rule_derivatives structure
— remove unused codepaths in StaticModel
— DynamicModel: simplify code that determines the type of derivatives in a
block. We now use a slightly different categorization.
— by the way, fix the max lead/lag information for blocks that are obtained via
merging. A workaround was previously implemented in
DynamicModel::get_Derivative(), but it is no longer needed with this fix.
This was only adding unneeded complexity, for no clear reason (we’re very far
from reaching 2³¹ equations, and if we wanted to support models that large, it
would be better to use long integers to avoid being limited to 2³²).
— return output arguments on the left-hand side
— do not pass class members as input/output arguments
By the way, fix a (benign) vector allocation bug in
{Static,Dynamic}Model::computeChainRuleJacobian().
New options "mexext" and "matlabroot" are introduced, so that the preprocessor
knows where to find MATLAB and which architecture to compile for.
Only recent gcc is now supported. A set of optimization flags is used so that
compilation goes reasonably fast on large models.
Consequently, options "msvc", "mingw" and "cygwin" have been removed.
In particular, it is necessary to turn back DataTree::AddVariable() into a
non-virtual method, because it is called from DataTree's constructor. Enforcing
the absence of leads/lags is now done using a new boolean DataTree::is_static.
Take advantage of the new copy constructor for handling
PlannerObjectiveStatement more elegantly.
Unfortunately it is not possible to implement *move* constructor / assigment
operators, because the reference ExprNode::datatree is not mutable.
