7 | List of fixes included in this public patch since release 6.2: |
---|
8 | |
---|
9 | o Configuration: |
---|
10 | ------------- |
---|
11 | + Configure script: |
---|
12 | o Corrected behavior for setting of CLHEP_BASE_DIR in case the path |
---|
13 | is set to '/usr' or '/usr/local'. Fixes problem report #638. |
---|
14 | + source/GNUmakefile: |
---|
15 | o Fixed search path from absolute to relative. Addresses problem |
---|
16 | report #644. |
---|
17 | |
---|
18 | o Digits_hits, Event |
---|
19 | ------------------ |
---|
20 | + Trivial fixes for removal of redundant semicolons in the code. |
---|
21 | |
---|
22 | o Geometry: |
---|
23 | -------- |
---|
24 | + divisions: |
---|
25 | o Removed unnecessary forward declaration of HepTransform3D from |
---|
26 | G4ParameterisationBox and G4VDivisionParameterisation. |
---|
27 | + navigation: |
---|
28 | o Fixed zero step-length problem in G4ReplicaNavigation::ComputeStep() |
---|
29 | for cases where different replica types are coincident. Resolves |
---|
30 | problem report #633. |
---|
31 | o G4NormalNavigation: added extra verbosity to print out information |
---|
32 | for each solid which returns a 'lowest-yet' step, including the |
---|
33 | mother volume. It is activated by setting verbose level to 2 or |
---|
34 | more. |
---|
35 | + solids/BREPS: |
---|
36 | o G4BREPSolidPolyhedra and G4BREPSolidPCone: |
---|
37 | Fixed usage of tolerances fir handling surface distances. |
---|
38 | Implemented SurfaceNormal(p) to follow original specifications |
---|
39 | for G4VSolid. |
---|
40 | o G4BREPSolid: |
---|
41 | Fixed usage of tolerances fir handling surface distances. |
---|
42 | o Some code cleanup ... |
---|
43 | + solids/CSG: |
---|
44 | o Fixes curing rare conditions of loops at boundaries for G4Orb |
---|
45 | and G4Sphere. Addresses problem report #547. |
---|
46 | |
---|
47 | o Electromagnetic standard processes: |
---|
48 | ---------------------------------- |
---|
49 | + standard: |
---|
50 | o Improved cross-section parametrisation at low energy for |
---|
51 | ComptonScattering. |
---|
52 | + utils: |
---|
53 | o Correction in G4MscModel::SampleCosTheta() for high-energy particles |
---|
54 | at small step. Fixes some observed deflection of direction for |
---|
55 | particles at high energies. |
---|
56 | o Fixed a problem of G4VEnergyLossProcess observed for ions at small |
---|
57 | cuts in range (ionization, charge>1). |
---|
58 | |
---|
59 | o Hadronic Processes: |
---|
60 | ------------------ |
---|
61 | + models/cascade, util: |
---|
62 | o Trivial fixes for removal of redundant semicolons in the code. |
---|
63 | + chiral_inv_phase_space: |
---|
64 | o Fix for clusterization in G4QNucleus. Correcting problem observed |
---|
65 | in system-testing. |
---|
66 | o Fixed initialization of secondary values dZ,dN,dS in G4QNucleus. |
---|
67 | |
---|
68 | o Run: |
---|
69 | --- |
---|
70 | + Updated date to run-manager. |
---|
71 | |
---|
72 | o Tracking: |
---|
73 | -------- |
---|
74 | + Fix in G4SteppingManager to correct the ordering of secondary tracks |
---|
75 | generated in a step. |
---|
76 | + Moved inlined constructor/destructor for G4Vtrajectory and |
---|
77 | G4VtrajectoryPoint to not inline, and corrected signature of |
---|
78 | operator==() to canonical form. |
---|
79 | |
---|
80 | o Visualization: |
---|
81 | ------------- |
---|
82 | + management: made G4VViewer::ProcessView() public, since used as |
---|
83 | private friend by some client classes. |
---|
84 | |
---|
85 | o Hadronic Lists: |
---|
86 | -------------- |
---|
87 | + Corrected user GNUmakefile sample, to allow for proper installation |
---|
88 | when global compound libraries are used. |
---|
89 | |
---|
90 | o Examples: |
---|
91 | -------- |
---|
92 | + Updated reference outputs. |
---|
93 | + advanced/composite_calorimeter, lAr_calorimeter |
---|
94 | o Fixed configuration setup for hadronic physics lists, to allow |
---|
95 | for proper installation when global compound libraries are used. |
---|
96 | + advanced/Rich, xray_telescope |
---|
97 | o Corrected to new visualization commands in input macro. |
---|
98 | + extended/analysis/A01 |
---|

---|
100 | for proper installation when global compound libraries are used. |
---|
101 | + extended/geometry/olap |
---|
102 | o Reordered storage of parameters for solids according to arguments |
---|
103 | order in construction in SolidAnalyser. Resolving issue in problem |
---|
104 | report #635. |
---|
