Fwd: Re: Linear constraint solving example with floating point co-efficients

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [PPL-devel] Linear constraint solving example with floating point co-efficients Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2011 02:55:32 -0400 From: Mahesh Nanjundappa <knmahesh(a)vt.edu> To: Roberto Bagnara <bagnara(a)cs.unipr.it> Hello Dr. Bagnara, Sorry if I bothered you and thanks for getting back to me despite your busy schedule. I've been going through the documentation and the sample examples from past 2 days. My purpose is more than the solving the linear system. But frankly speaking, I've not been to get any simple example compiled with floating point coefficients. I was looking for a pointer to any example which is solved with floating point coefficients. Again, thanks for getting back to me.

A compilation issue on Solaris 10, amd64
by Maciej Bliziński 19 Aug '11

19 Aug '11

Hello, At OpenCSW, we're working on a Solaris port of PPL. Dagobert Michelsen has identified two issues, which are specific to compiling on i386 or amd64. One is that there's a macro called "R1" defined on Solaris, and the second is that an existing version() function (from headers present on Solaris) results in an ambiguity which breaks compilation. Patches are available at [1]. There's one more issue, this time specific to amd64 (i386 compilation completes fine): /opt/csw/gcc4/bin/g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -DBOX_INSTANCE=rt_r_oc -I../../src -I../../src -I../../tests -I../../utils -DNDEBUG=1 -I/opt/csw/include -g -O2 -frounding-math -O2 -pipe -m64 -march=opteron -W -Wall -MT max_min1.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/max_min1.Tpo -c -o max_min1.o max_min1.cc interval1.cc: In function 'bool<unnamed>::test01() [with F = float]': interval1.cc:195: instantiated from here interval1.cc:77: error: no matching function for call to 'Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval<float, Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval_Restriction_None<Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval_Info_Bitset<unsigned int, <unnamed>::My_Interval<float>::Floating_Point_Real_Interval_Info_Policy> > >::join_assign(double)' interval1.cc:195: instantiated from here interval1.cc:90: error: no matching function for call to 'Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval<float, Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval_Restriction_None<Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval_Info_Bitset<unsigned int, <unnamed>::My_Interval<float>::Floating_Point_Real_Interval_Info_Policy> > >::is_disjoint_from(double)' interval1.cc:90: error: no matching function for call to 'Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval<float, Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval_Restriction_None<Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval_Info_Bitset<unsigned int, <unnamed>::My_Interval<float>::Floating_Point_Real_Interval_Info_Policy> > >::is_disjoint_from(double)' ../../src/Interval.defs.hh: In constructor 'Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval<Boundary, Info>::Interval(const T&) [with T = double, Boundary = float, Info = Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval_Restriction_None<Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval_Info_Bitset<unsigned int, <unnamed>::My_Interval<float>::Floating_Point_Real_Interval_Info_Policy> >]': interval1.cc:76: instantiated from 'bool<unnamed>::test01() [with F = float]' interval1.cc:195: instantiated from here ../../src/Interval.defs.hh:657: error: no matching function for call to 'Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval<float, Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval_Restriction_None<Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval_Info_Bitset<unsigned int, <unnamed>::My_Interval<float>::Floating_Point_Real_Interval_Info_Policy> > >::assign(const double&)' ../../src/Interval.defs.hh:374: note: candidates are: Parma_Polyhedra_Library::I_Result Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval<Boundary, Info>::assign(Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Degenerate_Element) [with Boundary = float, Info = Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval_Restriction_None<Parma_Polyhedra_Library::Interval_Info_Bitset<unsigned int, <unnamed>::My_Interval<float>::Floating_Point_Real_Interval_Info_Policy> >] gmake[4]: *** [interval1.o] Error 1 gmake[4]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... mv -f .deps/generalizedaffinepreimage1.Tpo .deps/generalizedaffinepreimage1.Po mv -f .deps/limitedcc76extrapolation1.Tpo .deps/limitedcc76extrapolation1.Po mv -f .deps/max_min1.Tpo .deps/max_min1.Po mv -f .deps/mapspacedims1.Tpo .deps/mapspacedims1.Po gmake[4]: Leaving directory `/home/maciej/src/opencsw/pkg/ppl/trunk/work/solaris9-i386/build-isa-amd64/ppl-0.11.2/tests/Box' The compiler version is: maciej@unstable10x [unstable10x]:~ > /opt/csw/gcc4/bin/g++ --version g++ (GCC) 4.3.3 Copyright (C) 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Sage and PPL
by Volker Braun 19 Aug '11

19 Aug '11

Dear PPL-developers, I'm happy to announce that the Parma Polyhedra Library is now used in Sage-4.7.1 (www.sagemath.org) for polyhedral computations. This includes a Python/Cython interface http://www.sagemath.org/doc/reference/sage/libs/ppl.html on which Sage's polyhedral objects are based (or being transitioned to). Thank you for your hard work and quick response to bug reports! Volker Braun

If by C_Polytope you mean C_Polyhedron and if the list of classes above is otherwise complete, then your usage of the PPL does not depend on the floating point rounding mode in effect.
