Release Notes

These notes are intended to serve as a guide to the user-visible features in a particular art suite release. As such, only versions included in art suite releases, or those with substantive changes, are included.

cetlib 3.11.01 (2020/08/28)

This version corrects an error related to interpreting a user-specified file-lookup policy (see issue #24659).

cetlib 3.11.00 (2020/07/08)

This version only supports SLF7. The e20 qualifier (GCC 9.3 with C++17 enabled) has been added.

cetlib 3.10.00 (2020/03/02)

This release includes the cet::bold_fontify utility (moved from art), which decorates a string with the necessary escape characters so that it can be rendered on the terminal in bold-face.

cetlib 3.09.00 (2019/11/12)

This release only supports the qualifiers e19 and c7. In addition, the enable_if_type_exists_t metaprogramming utility has been deprecated in favor of std::void_t.

cetlib 3.08.00 (2019/06/21)

This version replaces the use of readdir_r with readdir in the cet::search_path implementation (resolves issue #22594), anticipating changes required for Ubuntu LTS 18 and CentOS 8.

cetlib 3.07.02 (2019/03/05)

cetlib 3.07.01 (2019/02/07)

cetlib 3.07.00 (2019/01/30)

cetlib 3.05.01, 2019/01/29 (art suite 3.01.01, art suite 3.01.02)

cetlib 3.05.00, 2018/09/25 (art suite 3.01.00)

  • C++17 only

cetlib 3.04.00, 2018/06/05 (art suite 3.00.00)

  • Dependency on the hep_concurrency package has been added for handling thread-safety issues with the SQLite facilities.
  • A cet::getenv("VarName", std::nothrow) function has been added, which returns an empty string if the environment variable does not exist.
  • Additional cet::search_path functions have been added that allow explicit specification regarding whether an environment variable or a path has been provided as an std::string argument to the function.
  • A cet::exception_category_matcher utility has been added that can be used within Catch unit tests.

cetlib 3.06.01, 2019/06/07 (art suite 2.13.00)

  • C++17 only

cetlib 3.03.01, 2018/05/04 (art suite 2.11.02, art suite 2.11.03, art suite 2.11.04, art suite 2.11.05)

cetlib 3.03.00, 2018/03/30 (art suite 2.11.00, art suite 2.11.01)

  • cet::zero_init<T>, a facility for zero-initializing non-static, fundamental types, has been removed. This behavior is now provided by C++11’s uniform initialization syntax.
  • The cet::map_vector<T> functionality has changed substantially:
    • cet::map_vector<T> no longer adjusts the keys of any elements that are to be inserted
    • cet::map_vector<T>::push_back has been removed due to dangerous behavior, and also because it did not reflect a well-defined abstraction of the class. The push_back function has been replaced with insert, which models the same semantics as std::map<K, V>::insert.
    • The cet::map_vector<T>::insert function that takes an iterator range has been changed to has been changed to match the std::map<K, V>::insert(b, e) behavior.
    • The cet::map_vector<T>::operator[] function is still usable.
  • Exception-related headers that forwarded to cetlib_except no longer provide forwarding. Please make the following header-dependency changes:
    From To
    cetlib/coded_exception.h cetlib_except/coded_exception.h
    cetlib/exception.h cetlib_except/exception.h
    cetlib/exception_collector.h cetlib_except/exception_collector.h

cetlib 1.12.01, 2015/05/05 (art suite 1.14.01, art suite 1.14.02, art suite 1.14.03)

  • New feature: modular plugin skeleton generator, used for implementing issue #3776. cetskelgen is a drop-in replacement for artmod, which is now deprecated. Functionality and configuration of cetskelgen should be practically identical to that of artmod for those skeletons the latter knew how to generate. Additionally however, cetskelgen has extenensions that can generate skeletons for messagefacility destination (ELdestination) plugins, and art services, including service interfaces and interface implementations (see cetskelgen -h for further details). In contrast to artmod, cetskelgen is modular, allowing anyone to provide an extension to enable it to generate skeletons for other C++ plugins, such as those experiments might produce using the generic plugin interface provided by cetlib. This enables the skeleton generator for a particular plugin to be sited and maintained in the package which providees the plugin and therefore evolve as the plugin might evolve without version shear and incompatibility problems. For example, cetskelgen extensions for art::Filter and friends are housed in the art package, and the extension for artdaq::generator in the artdaq-core package of artdaq. The artmod script in cetpkgsupport may be considered deprecated and should not be used to generate skeletons for use with art suite versions >= 1.14.00. Documentation on the production of new skeleton generator extensions will be provided as a separate Wiki page.

  • Implement issue #6490: ensure range-for support for cet::map_vector
  • New function cet::LibraryManager::getSpecsByPath() to return the short and full specifications for a given plugin. Necessary for implementing issue #7889.
  • New function cet::includer::src_whereis() to show filename and line number (delimited by ':') where FHiCL parameter was defined or overridden (c.f. cet::includer::whereis() and cet::includer::highlighted_whereis()). Necessary for implementing issue #7788.
  • New feature: cetskel (see description of cetskelgen above, to which it was renamed to resolve filesystem case sensitivity issueson OS X).
