HPCGAP Status of Packages

Jump to bottom Edit New page

My plan is to use this page to record what is known about the usability or otherwise of GAP packages in HPC-GAP.
This could, and probably should, be replaced by something more sophisticated supporting automatic regression testing, etc.

For each package, we should record

  • the package version tested
  • any patch applied from the released version.
  • the date of testing (or the HPC-GAP commit)
  • the tests used -- if not the standard testall file of the package
  • the result, likely to be one of:
    • won't load
    • loads but fails tests in main thread
    • passes tests in main thread but fails them in another thread
    • passes tests in multiple threads but sometimes fails when tests are run concurrently in several threads
    • seems to be safe
  • any additional comments

Taken from the web page on 18/11/15 the list of GAP packages and current versions is:

  • ACE 5.1 (22/01/2012)
  • Alnuth 3.0.0 (26/10/2011)
  • ANUPQ 3.1.1 (19/11/2013)
  • Automata 1.13 (19/11/2011)
    • version tested: 1.13
    • patch: pkg-diffs/automata-2015-11-18.diff
    • the date of testing: 18/11/2015
    • the tests used -- running tests from the patternclass package, which exercises most of the technical code in automata, but ignores some areas
    • result: seems to be safe
    • any additional comments: works solidly for relatively heavy workloads doing "automata arithmetic"

    • Patternclass caches some precomputed results in a list which is set up with InstallFlushableValue. The natural replacement is a WriteOnceAtomic list which has just the right semantics, but cannot be installed in this way. As a fix I have just assigned it and then installed a method for FlushValues to replace it with a new empty one, but this seems like a situation that will recur and should be dealt with systematically.
