If the package suite was given (e.g. DUNE_ROOT=/blum), then the code
set up the root for each individual package automatically (e.g.
DUNE_COMMON_ROOT=/blum/dune-common), but the path which was then
activated did not get the local build sub-directory (e.g. if we are
building opm-autodiff in /frub/opm-autodiff/build, then the local
build directory is "build/"), and thus this was not appended to the
library search path. The result was that the source was found (because
the root pointed to a valid source tree), but the library was not
(because it is "hidden" in the subdirectory).
so far, it is only a flag which prevents the cache from being
deleted. To warn the user about a potential infinite loop, a warning
is printed if this flag was specified and some compiler or some compiler
flags were set by the user. This idea was proposed by Roland Kaufmann.
this seems to be a bug in cmake 2.8.10.2: if the user sets the
CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER variable for a build directory where this variable
has already been set, one gets an endless loop. This stings especially
if using the dunecontrol compatibility layer as the compiler flags are
unconditionally set via the CXX_FLAGS environment variable in the
options file. Running duncontrol on a module twice will thus trigger the
infinite loop if some compiler flags are set by the user.
The solution is relatively simple: Delete the CMakeFiles directory
before calling cmake. for the dunecontrol compatibility mode, we do
this in the configure script. For details about the cmake bug, see

I haven't figured out why this happens, but on one of my computers
running kubuntu 13.10 g++ says the following if one tries to use
quadruple precision math:
/home/erne/src/ewoms/ewoms/common/quad.hh: In static member function ‘static quad std::numeric_limits<__float128>::min()’:
/home/erne/src/ewoms/ewoms/common/quad.hh:52:14: error: unable to find numeric literal operator ‘operator"" Q’
{ return FLT128_MIN; }
since this happens only on this machine and only with the c++ (but
not the C) compiler, i suppose that this is either an upgrade issue
with kubuntu or an issue with the ubuntu gcc stack. Strangely enough,
my other kubuntu machine does not have a problem with that...
In any case also testing for assignability of constants and using the
C++ compiler for the quadmath test won't hurt...
The most severe change probably is the removal of the AutoDiff
debugging helper functions which were useful from within a debugger
but unfortunately had to rely on a presumed linker bug in order not to
be removed in the final binary.
Also, some private attributes were unused. These have been removed and
the constructors of their respective classes have been adapted. Once
their intended functionality is actually implemented, they should be
brought back on an as-needed basis.
Thanks to @bska for the review!
Some packages are split up in several library files, where each of them
doesn't have their own CMake find-module. So we cannot put this list in
the prerequisites. Unlike the headers, where we just add the directory,
all the libraries must be explicitly named on the link line. Thus, we
should allow to specify more than one name in the lib parameter.
The first name specified is designated as the "primary" library and is
assigned to the _LIBRARY variable; the others occur in _LIBRARIES as if
they were prerequisites.
Note that the build system cannot replicate this setup itself; it always
assumes that we are building (at most) one library from the source
files.
This should simplify some uses of the autodiff code. The internals
have been changed to allow for objects to have an empty vector of
Jacobians, always treating that object as a constant.
The previous version assumed that we had libraries, and thus always
installs the .pc file in the multi-arch library directory. However,
we now have modules which does not have a library, but whose header
files still need to be located. Since the lib/ directory is usually
in the pkgconfig search path, it is natural to put them there.
Set version number to 1.0 since core class AutoDiffBlock is quite well-tested
and documented. Prototype solvers and simulators may not yet warrant that
version number, but are stated to be experimental in the README.
If -DSUITESPARSE_USE_STATIC=ON, then the build system will only look for
static versions of the libraries that are part of SuiteSparse, even if
dynamic/shared versions are present on the system. Thus, the default of
preferring dynamic libraries can be overridden.
SuiteSparse is rarely built ourselves, but still uncommon enough to not
be present on computing clusters.
This patch allows us to install the libraries on a workstation, for
instance from package suitesparse-devel and link to it statically
without having to maintain our own build tree.
By passing these options through ./configure, one can use dunecontrol
to build a complete stack and still get a customized description in
CDash (such as when building in a cluster or VM where the actual machine
name does not matter, or when you want to add key options to the name
shown) without having to run a second configuration just to set those
in the cache.
Also fixes a bug where --with-cmake would skip any further option
specified after it.
