1.3.1

1.3.1 2019/01/22 BUG

• Fix typos and minor bugs
• New macro GYOTO_ERROR to prefix Gyoto::throwError message with
  __FILE__:__LINE__ in __PRETTY_FUNCTION__
• In Spectrum::ThemalBremstrahlung::radiativeQ and alphanu, return
  inf instead of throwing an error when dividing a finite number by 0.

1.3.0

1.3.0 2019/01/10 ABI 7:0:0

• Changed API: for consistency, replace CutOffIneV by CutOff (in
  Hz) in Spectrum::PowerLaw. New API supports unit, the user may
  replace
  <CutOffIneV> 1 2 </CutOffineV>
  with
  <CutOff unit='eV'> 1 2 </CutOff>
• Changed API: for consistency, rename Factory::getScenery to
  Factory::scenery and Factory::getPhoton to Factory::photon.
• Changed API: Factory::metric(), astrobj() etc. don't throw an error
  anymore when then XML file does not contain the relevant entity but
  return a NULL smartpointer instead
• Support mpirun -np option for all MPI implementations (bypassing
  MPI_Comm_spawn()).
• New Metric: Hayward
• New Astrobjs: Blob, Jet, NeutronStar, NeutronStarAnalyticEmission,
  NeutronStarModelAtmosphere, XillverReflection
• New Spectra: KappaDistributionSynchrotronSpectrum,
  PowerLawSynchrotronSpectrum, ThermalSynchrotronSpectrum
• Python: combined the three Python modules in a package, renaming
  them as:
  • gyoto -> gyoto.core
  • gyoto_std -> gyoto.std
  • gyoto_lorene -> gyoto.lorene
    The old names are still accessible but are deprecated and may be
    removed in a future release.
• Python: provide namespaces, e.g. gyoto.astrobj to hold Astrobjs
  from gyoto.core, gyoto.std and gyoto.lorene, to mimic C++
  organization and as a convenience for users. Same goes for
  gyoto.metric, gyoto.spectrum and gyoto.spectrometer.
• Python: gyoto.std and gyoto.lorene now take care of loading the
  necessary Gyoto plug-ins.
• New optional dependency on ARBLIB or AEAE. See INSTAL.Gyoto.md.
• Improved configure script:
  • It is now possible to specify the python interpreter in
    --with-python:
    ./configure --with-python=python2
    ./configure --with-python=/usr/bin/python3.7
  • Deprecate --with-udunits-(inc|lib) in favour of
    --with-udunits-(headers|libs).
  • In --with-*-(headers|lib), accept both colon-sparated paths and
    list of flags.
    See ./configure --help.
• Support KerrKS in gyotoy.
• Important code cleaning in PatternDisk
  • PatternDisk: implement radial interpolation for axisym grid;
    implement case when phi is out of phi-grid bounds; correction
    of bugs with rin, rout, rmax; allows grid with nphi=1 (axisym);
    transpose grid (In NumPy, grid is of dimension 1xNphixNr)
  • PatternDiskBB: remove risco and all calls to Kerr; can support
    any metric now
• RezzollaZhidenko: implement circularVelocity
• PageThorne supports ChernSimons metric
• Major update in PolishDoughnut
  • remove all code relative to outdated 2012 model
  • remove call to getRms in angmomrinner
  • call to external spectra (synchro ther, synchro PL, brems), so
    remove all spectrum computation inside PolishDoughnut
• ThermalBremsstrahlungSpectrum: use a different model dpending on
  temperature
• BlackBodySpectrum: add color correction
• Update fov orientation in Screen
  • Rename Alpha0 and Delta0 to Dangle1 and Dangle2 to be useable
    also in SphericalAngles
  • Add Screen::azimuthal_fov_, the fov along the azimuthal
    direction in the rest frame of the observer in SphericalAngles
    (assumed to be 2*pi in the past).
• NumericalMetricLorene and NeutronStarModelAtm: adding normal
  vector to surface

1.1.3 2016/12/13 BUG

   This is a backport release of ABI-compatible fixes of 1.2.0 to
   the 1.1.X branch.
   * Correctly handle empty stry case in OscilTorus::emittingArea();
   * Support enroling MPI_COMM_WORLD in python/example-mpi.py;
   * Add --version option to gyoto command-line tool.

1.2.0 2016/12/12 ABI 6:0:0

• New functionality: the plug-in from which each subcontractor is
  registered is now tracked, so that it becomes possible to look
  for a subcontractor matching a specific kind and plug-in. We
  introduce the function Gyoto::requirePlugin() in addition to
  Gyoto::loadPlugin(). The subcontractor signature is changed to
  accept a second parameter, which breaks the API.
• New functionality: thread-unsafe classes declare themselves as
  such, so that NThreads is ignored when multi-threading would
  cause erroneous results.

1.1.2 2016/12/10 FTR

• New Metrics in stdplug: ChernSimons, RezzollaZhidenko.
• New Astrobjs in stdplug: DeformedTorus, DynamicalDiskBolometric,
  EquatorialHotSpot, InflateStar, OscilTorus.
• Allow specifying plug-in by file name.
• Support colon syntax of mpirun (bypassing MPI_Comm_spawn()).
• Support mpirun -np option for Open MPI (bypassing
  MPI_Comm_spawn()).

1.1.1 2016/10/30 BUG

• When Gyoto is configured to be installed in another prefix than
  /usr/local/, look into two additional directories when loading
  plug-ins: /usr/local/lib/gyoto// and
  /usr/local/lib/gyoto/.
• The name of the versioned directories for plug-ins (
  above) is now the major version of the library, so users don't
  need to reinstall there plug-ins when ugrading Gyoto to a
  binary-compatible release.
• --enable-hardening now also enables -fPIE.
• Yorick: actually implement picture' painter for the matte_paint framework. Allow using any two or three-dimensional image or stack of images in the picture' and `panorama' painters.
• Include minimal plug-in example in plugins/null/.

1.1.0 2016/09/12 ABI 4 (5:0:0)

• New functionality: provide a plug-in for writing new Metrics,
  Astrobjs and Spectra in Python.
• New functionality: objects can describe there own
  properties. This feature is accessible through the help() method
  in the Python and Yorick interfaces and through -h on the
  command-line: "gyoto -hMetric::KerrBL"
• New functionality: adding a flag to highligh the shadow region in
  a strong-field image
• Various improvements and bug fixes in the Python extension.
• Yorick: Add more functions to control the floating-point
  environment from Yorick.
• Screen: properly parse "Mask" as a filename
• KerrKS: remove specific integrator, which has never worked well.
• PowerLawSpectrum: add cut-offs.
• DirectionalDisk: add cutoff in lamp/disk frames.
• PolishDoughnut: add central_temperature_ parameter.
