---|
| 43 | Rogue-Wave wrappers. |
---|
| 44 | - Management: |
---|
| 45 | o Adopt explicit initialisation for 'minExtents' and 'maxExtents' |
---|
| 46 | in G4SmartVoxelHeader::BuildNodes(...). |
---|
| 47 | - Boolean solids: |
---|

---|
| 57 | o Added G4CSGDEBUG preprocessor flag to discriminate for debug |
---|
| 58 | verbosity specific to CSG solids. Included in G4Exception of |
---|
| 59 | DistanceToOut() for "point p is outside" in G4Box, G4Cons, |
---|

---|
| 66 | delta parameters. |
---|
| 67 | - STEP reader: |
---|
| 68 | - Fix for porting on Linux-g++ 2.95-2 -ansi: removed usage of |
---|

| 72 | o G4AuxiliaryNavServices::CheckPointOnSurface(): added additional |
---|
| 73 | check to resolve endless looping of G4Navigator in case the track |
---|
| 74 | is passing through a point, edge or surface shared by two solids. |
---|
| 75 | Fixes problem report #185. |
---|
| 76 | o Fixes in G4ReplicaNavigation for bug reports #253 and #254: |
---|
| 77 | - in VoxelLocate(...), treated particular case of rotational |
---|
| 78 | symmetry with extent over 360 degrees. |
---|
| 79 | - in DistanceToOutPhi(...), fix to correctly handle cases where |
---|
| 80 | the starting point is on boundary of replicas and direction is |
---|
| 81 | along boundary. |
---|
| 82 | o Enabled the use of different field managers for different parts |
---|
| 83 | of the detector. This first implementation allows a volume that |
---|
| 84 | has a field manager to override the global one. |
---|
| 85 | - Note: All field managers currently must refer to fields |
---|
| 86 | in global coordinates. |
---|
| 87 | - New ability: setting of the delta accuracy parameters differently |
---|
| 88 | in different volumes (even while maintaining the same |
---|
| 89 | field as the global one). |
---|
| 90 | o Added new parameter to G4PropagatorInField 'fEpsilonMin' which is |
---|
| 91 | the minimal relative accuracy for MF driving. |
---|
| 92 | |
---|
| 93 | o Global: |
---|
| 94 | ------ |
---|
| 95 | - Added contructor to G4DataVector with additional argument |
---|
| 96 | for initialising values of collection. |
---|
| 97 | - Removed definition of cbrt() in globals.hh to allow ANSI compilation |
---|
| 98 | on Linux-g++ architecture with compiler gcc-2.95-2. |
---|
| 99 | - Defined 'str_size' as G4std::string::size_type and replaced usage of |
---|
| 100 | 'size_t' in G4String and G4SubString. Fixes problem report #40. |
---|
| 101 | |
---|
| 102 | o Graphics Representations: |
---|
| 103 | ------------------------ |
---|
| 104 | - Fixes in HepPolyhedron: |
---|
| 105 | o Extended implementation to cover unforeseen earlier situation |
---|
| 106 | during preselection of faces without intersection. |
---|
| 107 | o Made GetNumberOfRotationSteps() static and public. |
---|
| 108 | o Added GetSurfaceArea() and GetVolume(). |
---|
| 109 | - Fixed warnings about possible use of uninitialized variables. |
---|
| 110 | - Migrated to STL vector. Removed references to RW wrappers. |
---|
| 111 | - Bug fix in BooleanProcessor to address problem report #153. |
---|
| 112 | |
---|
| 113 | o Hadronic Processes: |
---|
| 114 | ------------------ |
---|
| 115 | - Migration to STL vector of the pre-compound and evaporation codes and |
---|
| 116 | removal of most warnings detected by Linux ANSI pedantic setup. |
---|
| 117 | - Management: |
---|
| 118 | o Fixes memory leak in G4InelasticInteraction: systematic search |
---|
| 119 | for leaks - energy scan 50MeV-10GeV. |
---|
| 120 | - High energy model: |
---|
| 121 | o Energy- OR Momentum- conservation, can be chosen by the user. |
---|
| 122 | o Added production of Evaporation particles. |
---|
| 123 | o Better description of experimental data, mainly in Strange |
---|
| 124 | Particle Production. |
---|
| 125 | o Cleared compilation warnings on Linux-g++. |
---|
| 126 | o Minor bug-fix in G4HEPionMinusInelastic. |
---|
| 127 | o Introduced temporary workaround in G4HEInelastic for high energy |
---|
| 128 | problem (number of particles created in one event larger than |
---|
| 129 | allocation). |
---|
| 130 | o Missing initialization of strangeness corrected, removing energy |
---|
| 131 | non-conservation in rare cases. |
---|
| 132 | - Generator models: |
---|
| 133 | o Upgrade of angular distributions and fission yields in pre-compound |
---|
| 134 | and evaporation models. |
---|
| 135 | o Defined local cbrt() in G4FermiMomentum, to allow porting |
---|
| 136 | on gcc-2.95-2 ANSI setup. |
---|
| 137 | o De-excitation: interface adjustment in G4ParaFissionModel. |
---|
| 138 | o Kinetic model: fixed exceptional condition for inelastic scattering |
---|
| 139 | off Hydrogene. No recoil required. |
---|
| 140 | - Radiative-decay model: |
---|
| 141 | o Fixes to cowork with STL vector migration of 'geometry'. |
---|
| 142 | - Low energy neutron transport model: |
---|
| 143 | o New code revision: requires new set of data, G4NDL3.0 or later. |
---|
| 144 | o Includes also an upgrade of the doppler broadening. |
---|
| 145 | Allows for running on 0K data, and doing exact doppler broadening |
---|
| 146 | on the fly (according to the temperature specified in G4Material), |
---|
| 147 | with good performance up to about 5000K. |
---|
| 148 | o Bug fix in G4NeutronHPInelasticCompFS to get the correct Q-value |
---|
| 149 | for Lithium (the bug was introduced in recent development). |
---|
| 150 | - Utilities: |
---|
| 151 | o Fixed memory leak in G4ReactionDynamics: systematic search for |
---|
| 152 | leaks - energy scan verification 50MeV-10GeV. |

---|
| 191 | - Fix to G4SteppingManager to explicitly initialise values in STL |
---|
| 192 | collections members of the class. |
---|
| 193 | |
---|
| 194 | o Transportation: |
---|
| 195 | -------------- |
---|
| 196 | - Correction for 'spin-update' to G4Transportation: to avoid overwrite |
---|
| 197 | of the spin value for photons and other non-charged particles (and |
---|
| 198 | for charged particles in zero field). |
---|
| 199 | |
---|
| 200 | o Visualization: |
---|
| 201 | ------------- |
---|

| 221 | |
---|
| 222 | o G4toG4 Tool: |
---|
| 223 | ----------- |

---|
| 276 | 1. Supported and Tested Platforms |
---|
| 277 | --------------------------------- |
---|
| 278 | |
---|
| 279 | o SUN Solaris 5.6/5.7, C++ 4.2 Patch 104631-04, C++ 5.2 Patch 109508-03. |
---|
| 280 | o HP 10.20, aCC C++ B3910B A.01.23 |
---|
| 281 | o Linux 2.2.17-7, gcc C++ egcs-2.91.66 (egcs 1.1.2), gcc 2.95-2. |
---|
| 282 | This configuration was tested with the RedHat 6.1 distribution, but |
---|
| 283 | versions of Geant4 have also been compiled successfully on more recent |
---|
| 284 | RedHat, Debian and Suse distributions. |
---|
| 285 | o NT 4.0 with Service Pack 4 or Windows-2000 and Cygnus Tools b20 with: |
---|
| 286 | Visual C++ 6.0 Service Pack 2 |
---|
| 287 | |
---|
| 288 | Platforms also tested but giving rise to some problems - see below: |
---|
| 289 | |
---|
| 290 | o DEC V4.0, cxx C++ V6.1-027. |
---|
| 291 | |
---|
| 292 | Platforms configured but not tested and not supported: |
---|
| 293 | o SGI V6.5.5, CC 7.2.1 with ObjectSpace |
---|
| 294 | o AIX 4.3.2, xlC compiler with ObjectSpace |
---|
| 295 | |
---|
| 296 | |
---|
| 297 | 2. ANAPHE and CLHEP |
---|
| 298 | ------------------- |
---|
| 299 | |
---|
| 300 | Geant4 3.2 requires the installation of CLHEP. |
---|
| 301 | |
---|
| 302 | See CLHEP (http://cern.ch/clhep/INSTALLATION/clhep.html). |
---|
| 303 | Tests have been performed with CLHEP 1.6.0.0. |
---|
| 304 | |
---|
| 305 | By default, the CLHEP installation scripts will activate ISO/ANSI C++ features |
---|
| 306 | if the compiler is capable. You need to explicitly disable CLHEP settings in |
---|
| 307 | case you wish non-ISO/ANSI setup on specific compilers. |
---|
| 308 | |
---|
| 309 | Geant4 3.2 coworks with ANAPHE 3.6.0 and components included therein: |
---|
| 310 | Objectivity 6.1 |
---|
| 311 | ObjectSpace 2.1 |
---|
| 312 | HepODBMS 0.3.2.9 |
---|
| 313 | CLHEP 1.6.0.0 |
---|
| 314 | |
---|
| 315 | For more information about ANAPHE, see: http://cern.ch/anaphe |
---|
| 316 | |
---|
| 317 | |
---|
| 318 | 3. The Standard Template Library |
---|
| 319 | -------------------------------- |
---|
| 320 | |
---|
| 321 | The following versions of STL have been tested: |
---|
| 322 | |
---|
| 323 | ObjectSpace STL on SUN (CC 4.2). |
---|
| 324 | |
---|
| 325 | See ObjectSpace (http://www.objectspace.com). |
---|
| 326 | |
---|
| 327 | "Native" STL on: Windows/NT, Linux, HP, DEC and SUN (CC 5.2). |
---|
| 328 | |
---|
| 329 | This is selected at installation/compile time by the environment variable |
---|
| 330 | G4USE_OSPACE in the case of the former - see documentation. |
---|
| 331 | |
---|
| 332 | NOTES: |
---|
| 333 | - Be aware that by default, the installation scripts will expect to use |
---|
| 334 | the native STL implementation. You must set the G4USE_OSPACE variable |
---|
| 335 | in the environment in order to select the ObjectSpace implementation. |
---|
| 336 | |
---|
| 337 | - Platform specific setup: |
---|
| 338 | o DEC: ObjectSpace is required in non ISO/ANSI setup. |
---|
| 339 | Native STL is required for ISO/ANSI setup. |
---|
| 340 | o HP: Native STL is used (non ISO/ANSI setup). |
---|
| 341 | o SUN: ObjectSpace is required in non ISO/ANSI setup (CC 4.2). |
---|
| 342 | Native STL is required for ISO/ANSI setup (CC 5.2 only). |
---|
| 343 | o Linux: Native STL is required (non ISO/ANSI setup). |
---|
| 344 | o NT: Native STL and ISO/ANSI setup required. |
---|
| 345 | |
---|
| 346 | |
---|
| 347 | 4. Persistency |

| 369 | Known Problems |
---|
| 370 | -------------- |
---|
| 371 | |
---|
| 372 | - There are several warning messages on some platforms during the |
---|
| 373 | installation of the libraries and the compilation of the examples. |
---|
| 374 | Most of them can be safely ignored. It is annoying but hard to get |
---|
| 375 | rid of them due to various reasons. |
---|
| 376 | |
---|
| 377 | - A warning message "Could not find naming root directory" appears at |
---|
| 378 | runtime of the persistency examples. It is generaged by |
---|
| 379 | HepDbApplication in HepODBMS. It can be ignored. |
---|
| 380 | |
---|
| 381 | - On Solaris7 (SUN-CC5), persistent header files has to be generated by |
---|
| 382 | ooddlx with "-noline" option to work around a bug in C++ compiler. |
---|
| 383 | This workaround applies not only to Geant4 Persistency category but |
---|
| 384 | also to HepODBMS, and the user defined ddl files as well. This |
---|
| 385 | option removes the "#line" directive of the file name and the line |
---|
| 386 | number of the original .ddl file. As a consequences, C++ compiler |
---|
| 387 | no longer "tells" the correct file name and the line number of the |
---|
| 388 | .ddl file if compiler error occurs. Try to identify the compiler |
---|
| 389 | error by first looking into the header file generated by ooddlx, |
---|
| 390 | and then locate the source of the problem by looking into the .ddl |
---|
| 391 | file. A patch to the compiler is expected from SUN. |
---|
| 392 | |
---|
| 393 | |
---|
| 394 | 5. Compiler Specific Problems |
---|
| 395 | ----------------------------- |
---|
| 396 | |
---|
| 397 | o DEC V4.0, cxx C++ V6.1-027. |
---|
| 398 | |
---|
| 399 | - We have found cases of mis-compilation of min and max templates |
---|
| 400 | on DEC. We have traced those which cause serious malfunction |
---|
| 401 | but there is no guarantee that there are no other cases. |
---|
| 402 | Detailed inspection of assembler output suggests that this |
---|
| 403 | problem might not be confined to min and max. This has been |
---|
| 404 | reported to DEC/Compaq. We understand a new version 6.2 of the |
---|
| 405 | compiler is now available. However we cannot guarantee correct |
---|
| 406 | execution of Geant4 on DEC with the current version of the |
---|
| 407 | compiler. |
---|
| 408 | - A bug in cin.getline() system function causes an anomalous |
---|
| 409 | behavior when running in interactive-mode on DEC-cxx 6.1 in |
---|
| 410 | ISO/ANSI mode. We tested the bug has been fixed in more recent |
---|
| 411 | versions of the compiler. |
---|
| 412 | |
---|
| 413 | |
---|
| 414 | 6. Known Run-Time Problems and Limitations |
---|
| 415 | ------------------------------------------ |
---|
| 416 | |
---|
| 417 | For a complete list of outstanding run-time problems and to submit any |
---|
| 418 | problem you may find running this version of Geant4, please refer to the |
---|
| 419 | Geant4 Problem Reporting System, available on the Web at this address: |
---|
| 420 | |
---|

---|
| 422 | |
---|
| 423 | |
---|
| 424 | 7. Compilation Warnings |
---|
| 425 | ----------------------- |
---|
| 426 | |
---|
| 427 | There are compilation warnings on some platforms. We do not believe |
---|
| 428 | that any will lead to incorrect run-time behaviour, but we are working |
---|
| 429 | on reducing them. |
---|
| 430 | |
---|
| 431 | |
---|
| 432 | 8. Known Run-Time Warnings |
---|
| 433 | -------------------------- |
---|
| 434 | |
---|
| 435 | The following messages can be written to error output while tracking. We |
---|
| 436 | believe none give rise to incorrect behaviour. |
---|
| 437 | |
---|
| 438 | o G4PropagateInField: Warning: Particle is looping |
---|
| 439 | - tracking in field will be stopped. |
---|
| 440 | It has performed 10000 steps in Field while a maximum of 10000 |
---|
| 441 | are allowed. |
