15:47 CoCoALib Bug #1473: isystem not working as expected: I have a first prototype. Works on my Linux box (but hen it also worked before...)
I'll ask Anna to check on her ... John Abbott

17:47 CoCoA-5 Feature #1587: Multiline string literals (again): I am still inclined *against* multi-line string literals.
@NewFold@ above @ConcatStrings@ seem like a reasonable com... John Abbott
16:50 CoCoA-5 Feature #1599: ConcatStr: The fn maps a list of strings to a string by concatenation.
Should the fn be called *@ConcatStr@* or *@ConcatStrs@*? John Abbott
15:44 CoCoALib Feature #1598: RingHom: implement phi(X) as apply(phi, X) also for X vector and matrix: See RingHom.[HC]... Anna Maria Bigatti
15:30 CoCoALib Feature #1598: RingHom: implement phi(X) as apply(phi, X) also for X vector and matrix: I'll try doing it!
and think of other involved classes.
(and consider whether making apply obsolescent) Anna Maria Bigatti
15:23 CoCoALib Feature #1598 (In Progress): RingHom: implement phi(X) as apply(phi, X) also for X vector and matrix: Do we still want to keep *@apply@*?
Or should it be moved to "obsolescent"?

16:30 CoCoALib Bug #1601: Compilation ambiguity: I am not sure what the problem here is. @clang@ on Anna's computer seems not to have trouble.
My linux box has gcc ... John Abbott
16:28 CoCoALib Bug #1601 (Closed): Compilation ambiguity: I have looked better at Florian's problem (in issue #1600).
The cause of the trouble is that the compiler prefers to... John Abbott

16:24 CoCoALib Bug #1600: Detect updated versions of external libs: Some ideas and comments (for checks to make whenever trying to compile):
* first idea: check whether some extlib hea... John Abbott
16:19 CoCoALib Bug #1600 (In Progress): Detect updated versions of external libs: Florian Walsh reported a compilation failure after updating BOOST on his (linux) system.
My understanding is that he... John Abbott

15:04 CoCoA-5 Feature #1599 (In Progress): ConcatStr: I already have an impl (see #1587#note-6 and #1431#note-9).
I think it could be useful. The only doubt I have c... John Abbott
14:57 CoCoA-5 Feature #1599 (Closed): ConcatStr: Do we want to have a function @ConcatStr@ (and possibly a variant which puts a "separator" between the strings in the... John Abbott
14:46 CoCoALib Design #1576: cmp for machine integers: There is a (hard-to-read) description of the C++ rules for overload resolution at @https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/... John Abbott
14:21 CoCoALib Design #1576: cmp for machine integers: Not sure what to do.
Activating the template fn with name *@cmp@* causes overload resolution problems (seemingly eve... John Abbott

21:38 CoCoALib Design #1576: cmp for machine integers: Calling the template fn @cmp@ causes plenty of "fun" compilation problems. Not sure what to do.
The simplest is to... John Abbott
21:37 CoCoA-5 Bug #1595: Bad input causes crash: JAA now thinks that explicitly throwing an exception is probably neater than calling @reportError@.
I'll revise the ... John Abbott

18:09 CoCoALib Feature #1598 (Closed): RingHom: implement phi(X) as apply(phi, X) also for X vector and matrix: phi(f) is equivalent to apply(phi, f).
Implement also for matrix and vector (and export it to CoCoA-5) Anna Maria Bigatti
18:01 CoCoA-5 Design #1568: RMap and image: obsolescent?: Move RMap in BackwardCompatible Anna Maria Bigatti
17:15 CoCoA-5 Design #1568: RMap and image: obsolescent?: Checking the packages using it: one is toric. Fix it! Anna Maria Bigatti
15:35 CoCoA-5 Feature #1246: Revive old CoCoA4 package called "cocoa5.cpkg": I now have a version of @OperationCommunication.cpkg5@ which works for some simple examples.
