0004
0005 28th February 2002
0006
0007 List of fixes included in this public patch to release 4.0, to be added on
0008 top of patch-01:
0009
0010 o Config:
0011 ------
0012 - liblist.c: added flags __CYGWIN__ and __CYGWIN32__ for triggering proper
0013 parsing algorithm on Windows systems, also on most recent versions of
0014 Cygwin.
0015 - WIN32-VC.gmk: use g77 instead of f77 as default fortran compiler.
0016 - sys/HP-aCC.gmk: removed include path to
0017 global/management/include/std/wrappers, which was unused and not
0018 necessary.
0019
0020 o Decay processes:
0021 ---------------
0022 - Removed a physics table from G4Decay.
0023
0024 o Electromagnetic processes:
0025 -------------------------
0026 - Fixed bug in G4Ve(h)EnergyLoss, G4VMuEnergyLoss:
0027 o Adopt MinDeltaCut in-range instead of in-energy !
0028 - G4VEnergyLoss:
0029 o Set subSecFlag to false. NO default subcutoff generation.
0030 o Set finalRange to 1mm as default (the actual value is computed in
0031 G4VeEnergyLoss, G4VhEnergyLoss and G4VMuEnergyLoss).
0032
0033 o Event:
0034 -----
0035 - Optimised implementation of SetNewValue() in G4ParticleGunMessenger and
0036 G4GeneralParticleSourceMessenger to allow porting on WIN32-VC for optimised
0037 compilation.
0038
0039 o Geometry:
0040 --------
0041 - Management:
0042 o G4GeometryManager.cc: fixed handling of ios manipulators and precision
0043 to reset to their original state in G4GeometryManager::ReportVoxelStats().
0044 Fixes problem report #343.
0045 - Volumes:
0046 o G4GeometryMessenger.cc: fixed local variable name not to clash with
0047 class data member.
0048 - solids/Boolean:
0049 o G4ReflectionFactory.cc: fixed bug causing repetition of daughter volumes.
0050 o G4ReflectedSolid[.hh.cc]:
0051 - Defined new methods Set/GetTransform3D() and Set/GetDirectTransform3D()
0052 for defining/accessing the reflected transformation.
0053 o Moved utility methods for G4AffineTransform to protected.
0054 - solids/BREPS:
0055 o Bug fixes to G4BREPSolidPolyhedra:
0056 - Added enhancement allowing to define RMIN and RMAX to be zero with the
0057 exception of forbidden two consecutive zero RMAX values.
0058 - Refactoring in constructor gained two new private methods for creation
0059 of trapezoidal and triangular side planes of G4BREPSolidPolyhedra.
0060 - Rewritten code for delta phi >= 2*PI case with full classification of
0061 possible cases.
0062 - Fixed sense of end planes.
0063 - Fixed delta phi < 2*PI case where some old code remained after bug
0064 fix #266.
0065 - Added new private method for creation of planar surfaces gained
0066 after code refactoring in constructor.
0067 - Fixed bug for problem report #354 by adding the code handling the
0068 cases where user supplies for the same z-section different RMIN or
0069 RMAX values.
0070 - Added more preconditions checks
0071 - Added code forbidding "teeth" in polyhedra.
0072 o G4ConvexHull.hh: moved initialisation of 'next' to constructor's body.
0073 - solids/CSG:
0074 o G4Sphere.cc: bug-fix in Inside() function. Fixes problem report #216.
0075 o G4Para.cc: fixed bug in G4Para::Inside() in calculation of xt,
0076 according to problem report #357.
0077 - solids/STEPinterface:
0078 o G4RepresentationRelationshipCreator.cc: fixed unsafe usage of
0079 '<' operator.
0080
0081 o Hadronic processes:
0082 ------------------
0083 o Fixes in pre-equilibrium and de-excitation generator models.
0084 o Fixed bug in doppler broadening in neutron-transport model:
0085 - Fixed sign error in calculation of effective luminosity.
0086 o Stopping: trivial bug-fix in pi-absorption at rest.
0087 o Util:
0088 - Trivial bug-fix, affecting K-absorption at rest.
0089 - G4Nucleus: moved definition of constructors/destructor from header to
0090 source implementation file. Unresolved symbols were detected at link
0091 time on SUN-CC for static constants used to initialise members in
0092 inline constructors.
0093 o CHIPS model: fixed accuracy problem.
0094 o Optimised implementation in G4Fancy3DNucleus.cc to allow porting on
0095 WIN32-VC for optimised compilation.
0096
0097 o Interfaces:
0098 ----------
0099 - Fixed for odd behavior of G4UIcsh in Windows systems.
0100
0101 o Materials:
0102 ---------
0103 - Optimised implementation of GetIndex() for fIndexTable in G4Material,
0104 G4Element and G4Isotope.
0105
0106 o Particles:
0107 ---------
0108 - Fixed bug in the decay table for G4KaonMinus.
0109
0110 o Track & Tracking:
0111 ----------------
0112 - track:
0113 o Added G4Track::CopyTrackInfo().
0114 o Optimised G4ParticleChange::AddSecondary() to properly use touchable
0115 handles.
0116 o Fixed a bug of changing parent weight in
0117 G4ParticleChange::UpdateStepForAlongStep().
0118 o Optimised implementation in G4Track::GetVelocity().
0119 - tracking:
0120 o G4SteppingManager2.cc:
0121 - fix for extra steps when the ApplyCuts flag is set
0122 - G4SteppingManager.hh: changed scope for 'SizeOfSelectedDoItVector'
0123 to allow porting on WIN-VC compiler.
0124 o Fix in G4SteppingManager::SetInitialStep() for applyCuts.
0125
0126 o Visualization:
0127 -------------
0128 - HepRep: added check for missing hierarchy layers in HepRepXMLWriter.
0129 - Bug fix in modeling: removed Begin/EndPrimitives from G4HitsModel and
0130 G4TrajectoriesModel. This was causing nested calls to Begin/EndPrimitives
0131 (and thus to glNewList/EndList in OpenGL stored mode), since the
0132 trajectories and hits Draw methods themselves have Begin/EndPrimitives.
0133
0134 o Examples:
0135 --------
0136 - extended/electromagnetic/testem1,3,4,5:
0137 o Improvements in PrimaryGenerator and macros
0138 - novice/N03:
0139 o New macros for tutorials/exercises.
