History of Cuba.jl

v2.3.0 (2022-09-24)

New Features

  • License was changed to MIT "Expat" (#40, #43).
  • It is now possible to directly pass data to the integrand function with the userdata keyword argument (#39). See the example in the documentation for more details.

v2.2.0 (2021-01-28)

New Features

  • Update to support Cuba v4.2.1.

v2.1.0 (2020-04-12)

New Features

  • The Cuba binary library is now installed as a JLL package. This requires Julia v1.3 or later version.

v2.0.0 (2019-02-27)

Breaking Changes

  • Support for Julia 0.7 was dropped.

New Features

  • When using the package in the REPL, the result of the integration now has a more informative description about the error flag.

v1.0.0 (2018-08-17)

Breaking Changes

  • Support for Julia 0.6 was dropped.
  • Keyword arguments reltol and abstol are now called rtol and atol, respectively, to match keywords in isapprox function.
  • Deprecated functions llvegas, llsuave, lldivonne, and llcuhre have been removed.

New Features

  • The build script has been updated, now the package supports Linux-musl and FreeBSD systems.

v0.5.0 (2018-05-15)

New Features

  • The package now uses BinaryProvider.jl to install a pre-built version of the Cuba library on all platforms.

Breaking Changes

  • Support for Julia 0.5 was dropped
  • The default value of argument ndim has been changed to 2 in divonne and cuhre. These algorithms require the number of dimensions to be at least 2. Now setting ndim to 1 throws an error. Your code will not be affected by this change if you did not explicitely set ndim. See issue #14.

v0.4.0 (2017-07-08)

Breaking Changes

  • Now vegas, suave, divonne, and cuhre wrap the 64-bit integers functions. The 32-bit integers functions are no more available. llvegas, llsuave, lldivonne, llcuhre are deprecated and will be removed at some point in the future. This change reduces confusion about the function to use.

New Features

  • Now it is possible to vectorize a function in order to speed up its evaluation (see issue #10 and PR #11).
  • The result of integration is wrapped in an Integral object. This is not a breaking change because its fields can be iterated over like a tuple, exactly as before.

v0.3.1 (2017-05-02)

Improvements

  • Small performance improvements by avoiding dynamic dispatch in callback (#6). No user visible change.

v0.3.0 (2017-01-24)

Breaking Changes

  • Support for Julia 0.4 was dropped
  • Integrators functions with uppercase names were removed. They were deprecated in v0.2.0

New Features

  • New 64-bit integers functions llvegas, llsuave, lldivonne, llcuhre are provided. They should be used in cases where convergence is not reached within the ordinary 32-bit integer range (#4)

v0.2.0 (2016-10-15)

This release faces some changes to the user interface. Be aware of them when upgrading.

New Features

  • ndim and ncomp arguments can be omitted. In that case they default to 1. This change is not breaking, old syntax will continue to work.

Breaking Changes

All integrator functions and some optional keywords have been renamed for more consistency with the Julia environment. Here is the detailed list:

  • Integrators functions have been renamed to lowercase name: Vegas to vegas, Suave to suave, Divonne to divonne, Cuhre to cuhre. The uppercase variants are still available but deprecated, they will be removed at some point in the future.
  • Optional keywords changes: epsabs to abstol, epsrel to reltol, maxeval to maxevals, mineval to minevals.

v0.1.4 (2016-08-21)

  • A new version of Cuba library is downloaded to be compiled on GNU/Linux and Mac OS systems. There have been only small changes for compatibility with recent GCC versions, no actual change to the library nor to the Julia wrapper. Nothing changed for Windows users.

v0.1.3 (2016-08-11)

New Features

  • A tagged version of Cuba library is now downloaded when building the package. This ensures reproducibility of the results of a given Cuba.jl release.

v0.1.2 (2016-08-11)

New Features

  • Windows (i686 and x86_64 architectures) supported (#2)

v0.1.1 (2016-08-05)

Bug Fixes

  • Fix warnings in Julia 0.5

v0.1.0 (2016-06-08)

New Features

  • Module precompilation enabled

v0.0.5 (2016-04-12)

New Features

  • User interface greatly simplified (thanks to Steven G. Johnson; #3). This change is backward incompatible. See documentation for details

v0.0.4 (2016-04-10)

New Features

Breaking Changes

  • verbose keyword renamed to flags

Bug Fixes

  • Number of cores fixed to 0 to avoid crashes when Julia has more than 1 process
  • In Cuhre and Divonne, force ndim to be 2 when user sets it to 1

v0.0.3 (2016-04-06)

New Features

  • Add cores, accel, init, exit function. They will likely not be much useful for most users, so they are not exported nor documented. See Cuba manual for information

Breaking Changes

  • Make ndim and ncomp arguments mandatory

Bug Fixes

  • Fix build script

v0.0.2 (2016-04-04)

Bug Fixes

  • Fix path of libcuba

v0.0.1 (2016-04-04)

  • First release
