Version 2.7.0

BUGS FIXED
  • Fixed ADJOINT libraries to work with v.2 binary libraries [PW] (10/20/2003)
  • Reversal of multiplication made on 6/03/03 undone; group order in GammaSrc and adjoint input file is the same [AV] (6/18/2003)
  • Fixed indexing of average energy vector for decay types [PW] (06/10/2003)
  • Multiplication of importance and gamma source for bio dose calculation is reversed to account for order of gp struc [AV] (6/03/03)
  • Bio dose results are now divided by detector volume (hence new input parameter needed for bio dose request line) [AV] (6/03/03)
  • Modified bio dose calculation to use volume instead of uservol [AV] (3/25/03)
  • Change parameter passed to Result::write so that uservol is correctly processed [AV] (09/18/2002)
  • Util/input.C:tokentype() - token conversion to lower case only changed first character [AV] (08/13/2002)
  • Command-line argument handling: when extra argument expected (-v, -t) for last option but not given, casuses SEGFAULT (core dump). Check for last command-line option and error. [AV] (09/09/2002)
  • Fixed units for contact dose [PW] (01/13/2003)
NEW FEATURES
  • Machine-dependent data files (binary ALARA libraries) are searched for in a path defined by ALARA_XSDIR environment variable and ${exec_prefix}/lib/alara/$OSTYPE [PW] (10/27/2003)
  • Response type reminders now appear above each and every table [PW] (6/12/2003)
  • Machine-independent data files (WDR, ANS 6.4.3, etc) are searched for in a path defined by ALARA_DATADIR environment variable and ${prefix}/share/alara/data defined by configure [PW] (6/12/2003)
  • Implemented Biological/Adjoint/Folded dose in Volumes [AV] (3/??/03)
  • Direct reading of RTFLUX by ALARA [MF] (08/23/02)
  • Read user-defined total volume in ‘loading’ input block. [AV] (09/09/2002)
  • Use user-defined total volume with special ‘units’ entry of output block to give volume integrated results. [AV] (09/09/2002)
  • Adjoint dose calculation for volume resolution [AV] (12/02/2002)
CODE UPDATES
  • Update for addition of software for producing collaboration graphs in doxygen called ‘dot’ [PW] (08/11/2002)
  • Changed code to use GNU autoconf/make, etc… [EK,PW] (01/06/2003)

Version 2.6.0

  • Start of ChangeLog (08/08/2002)

BUGS FIXED

NEW FEATURES
  • Squeeze multiple zeros out of ALARALib [PW] (08/09/2002) THIS WILL REQUIRE CHANGE IN MINOR REVISION NUMBER
CODE UPDATES
  • All class comments converted to Doxygen compliance
  • Added target to Makefile to make documentation with Doxygen
  • Improved C++ ISO standards compliance - use correct headers - completely specify entities from std namespace - import various stream entities from std namespace
  • Added ChangeLog and TODO files

Version 2.5.2

BUGS FIXED
  • Atomic X-ray data was not being included in gamma library when translating from IEAF libarary
NEW FEATURES

Version 2.5.1

BUGS FIXED
  • Atomic X-ray data was not being included in gamma library
  • Incorrect results for schedules with varying fluxes. Previous bug fix (v2.?.?) was incomplete. Diagonal matrix element was not based on correct flux.
  • Simplified/corrected interpolation/extrapolation for contact dose calculation.
NEW FEATURES
  • Added mode to only build chains and solve without output. This is designed to facilitate Condor operation that might have problems closing the binary file and immediately reopening it.
CODE UPDATES
  • Began introducing namespace specifiers for included elements of std namespace.

BUGS FIXED
  • Core dump when invalid included input file. Check for NULL istream pointer.
NEW FEATURES

Version 2.4.6 Patches

BUGS FIXED
  • Total cross-section of IEAF library is incorrectly calculated by summing partial cross-sections. This over counts the total transmutation cross-section. Now correctly read and locate total cross section from library.
  • Various memory leaks found and plugged.
