Software Releases
Gaudi (Hubert)
- Released v18r10 (with everything mentioned last time)
- Changes in GaudiExample structure: component + link instead of many executables. Using GaudiMain. (Next version of GaudiKernel will feature an environment variable GAUDIEXE to point ot the default base executable)
- Modified the rootmap dump script to check all files starting with rootmap (as ROOT does now)
- Few patches to GaudiPython (Pere)
- New functionality in ParticlePropertySvc (Vania)
- it is possible to override particle properties without having to provide a complete file.
- Minor memory leaks observed in PropertyMgr, to be investigated
- Bug in VectorMap iterator to be fixed
- About v19r0
- Pere reduced the size of the new StatusCode, now it is only 2.5 times slower (instead of 20 times)
LHCb, Boole, Brunel (Marco Cl. for Marco Ca.)
- Everything builds. He will test on Friday and, if everything goes smoothly, we should have a release early next week.
Gauss (Gloria)
- Release v25r5 based on LCG 47. Since it was never used in production it will be replaced by a rebuild on LCG48.
