CompHEP-4.4.91. Release notes **ATTENTION! THE VERSION 4.4.91 IS A TEST RELEASE! STILL NOT FOR SERIOUS PHYSICS RESEARCH!** ==== Fixed bugs. ==== * 4.4.91: Three bugs in generation of session.dat with s_comphep * 4.4.91: Wrong values of some commands in tag of the event default file format. * 4.4.91: Absence of clean-up of the program sceen if the width scheme has been changed. * 4.4.91: Unproper detection of libisajet in CERNLIB if there is a shared version of the libary. * 4.4.90: Several bugs in generation of session.dat with s_comphep * 4.4.90: Wrong values of some commands in tag of the event default file format. ==== Changes. ==== * Symbolic part: * 4.4.90: All PDFs in the beam/strfun tables have prefix PDF (or LHA, if LHAPDF is interfaced) * 4.4.90: Proper generation of session.dat in s_comphep. * 4.4.90: Lots of internal re-arrangements (to simplify the program structure). * Numerical part: * 4.4.90: A new improved version of num_batch.pl * 4.4.90: Diagram viewing is available in n_comphep (a new option in the main menu) * 4.4.90: More convinuent behavior of the menu 'Kinematics' * 4.4.90: Re-arranged menu "Initial State". Beam particle and PDF are separated. * 4.4.90: The LHA event file format has been added, still with no extra HepML tags. * Common: * 4.4.90: Now CompHEP is compatible with gcc-4.x * 4.4.90: A new version of make_tab. Now it can processes files with several subprocesses. * 4.4.90: CompHEP can be compiled in two different modes: with OR without LHAPDF. * 4.4.90: Several options in ./configure have been added: --with-gcc4, --with-lhapdf, --debug, --help * Documentation * 4.4.91: Updated NUM_BATCH-HOWTO * 4.4.91: Updated LHAPDF_in_CompHEP-HOWTO * 4.4.91: Updated INSTALL * 4.4.90: New NUM_BATCH-HOWTO * 4.4.90: LHAPDF_in_CompHEP-HOWTO ==== Incompatibilities. ==== * 4.4.90: A new format of the initial state in session.dat. * 4.4.90: ComHEP has two regimes of compilation, with or without LHAPDF. CompHEP with LHAPDF has incompatible beam strfun tables. So, these tables will be empty if a user tries to use old files in the new version. No problems in ComHEP without LHAPDf. ==== TODO ==== * Mixing of several event files in LHAef. * A new version of mk_tab compatible with the LHAEF format. * Check LHAPDF-compatible session.dat in internal-PDF-compatible n_comphep (and vice versa). * Help files for the new "Initial state" menu. * More convinuent behavior of the menu 'Initial state'. Initialization not by [Esc], but by a new menu command (Init). * Suppression of linking of all binaries against shared libraries (important for FC6/etc. installation of cernlib)
