17:48 Feature #1267: Ideal equality
I'm very uneasy in doing an automatic choice: the "trick" might work out as a slow overhead in a long loop with many ... Anna Maria Bigatti
10:50 Support #1134: Organize better the documentation for CoCoALib
I am postponing this issue. Even though I think it is important, it is likely to need a lot of time; anyway, the doc... John Abbott

16:31 Feature #385: Design new errors using inheritance
This really the same as #743. John Abbott
16:26 Feature #743: Better errors: give supplementary info about the error
It would be nice to have a quiet moment to get this matter properly sorted out.
We really should try to deal with ...

16:06 Design #581: C++14: MachineInt
I have modified the subject and description to refer to C++14 instead of C++11.
There is a summary of the integral...
John Abbott
15:48 Feature #1218: 32-bit or 64-bit preprocessor macro?
We should check whether this still makes sense with C++14. I should also check on my little 32-bit machine...
John Abbott
15:46 Feature #1197: IsZeroDet: new fn
The idea is simple: compute the det modulo various primes, and if any is non-zero then we know the non-modular det is... John Abbott
12:30 Feature #1267: Ideal equality
A similar trick could be used for ideal membership: if @x@ is not in @I+J@ then it is certainly not in @I@.

21:31 Feature #658: Indets actually in a poly (or vector or matrix)
It seems that there is already an impl in @SparsePolyOps-RingElem@.
There is no doc, no test. Also not exported t...

15:16 Feature #1267 (In Progress): Ideal equality
Long sent me one example which wanted to test if a large ideal (in a ring with 36 indets) contained 1. He actually d... John Abbott
15:07 Feature #1269 (New): Ideal Ops: sort-cuts for trivial args?
A colleague here in Passau was disappointed that @intersection(ideal(1), J)@ was taking a long time, even though the ... John Abbott
15:00 Design #1255: Ideals with trivial GBasis
Generators which are monomials are also a special case.
Then one could imagine a more complicated "mixed" situatio...

16:49 Feature #1267 (In Progress): Ideal equality
Long in Passau lamented that sometimes testing two ideals for equality was too slow.
It might help to perform a fe...

16:42 Design #1266 (New): Make a poly ring QQ[x,y,z] also contain a ZZ[x,y,z]
Idea: every polyring @QQ[x,y,z]@ should also contain a single copy of @ZZ[x,y,z]@.
This single copy can then be us...
John Abbott
16:39 Feature #1249: principal ideal has a Gbasis
Having seen in the code that computing a GBasis over @QQ@ implies creating a new ring (with coeffs in @ZZ@), encourag... John Abbott

There are some "unregistered" *@.txt@* files in the CoCoALib documentation.
Rectify!

John Abbott
12:06 Design #1259: ThreadsafeCounter is now obsolete?
A quick grep shows that @ThreadsafeCounter@ is used in just two places:

12:01 Design #1259 (Closed): ThreadsafeCounter is now obsolete?
C++14 *@atomic@* machine integers should render @ThreadsafeCounter@ superfluous.

Summary:
* update effected
* *NOT C++03 COMPATIBLE* (not worth it)

15:33 Design #710: Update normaliz interface?
Now that we are passing to C++14, we can reactivate this task.
The first step is to make sure that our current int...
