👋 @StewMH, @mdavezac - thanks for agreeing to review this submission. Your job, as stated in the first comment in this issue, is to go through the paper and the software repository, and check off the boxes in your list as you've done so. When you find something that is a problem, if it's brief, you can mention it here, and if it's less brief or an action for the submitter, open an issue in the software repository and mention this issue in it.

If you have any questions or problems, please tell me.

Hi @tesch1,

I tried compiling this with GCC 7.3 and got this error:

I think you need a workaround here. See e.g. opencv/opencv#8080 for a similar issue.

I didn't have any luck compiling it with Clang on Ubuntu either, so far.

Also, it's Apache-licensed but you have MPL-licensed files:

Hi,

Thanks for reviewing!

Ah yeah, the "older gcc missing avx primitive". Just checked in an update/workaround. Does it compile for you now?

Also, did you run into the same error(s) under clang, or was there something else?

Regarding the licenses, yes, there are some files that were modified from Eigen, so retain the Eigen license. These are only included with #include <duals/dual_eigen>. An upcoming update will clarify this in the README.

@mdavezac mdavezac commented Jun 6, 2019

@tesch1, have you considered dual licensing the non-eigen parts with MPL as well as Apache? That way, users can pick a format where the whole product is covered under a single license.

@tesch1 tesch1 commented Jun 6, 2019

Oh yes, that's a great idea. I'll do that. I picked Apache+LLVM because libc++ uses it, and wanted to be broadly compatible with that, but dual-licensing is even better.

Hi,

I have got past the missing avx primitive with GCC. Now the compilation runs for a while but fails with an ICE probably related to out-of-memory, at least on my VM. I can try a more powerful bare-metal machine, the VM only has 2G of RAM.

Cheers,
Stewart

@whedon generate pdf from branch paper-3

@StewMH - did you ever get it to compile? Some Eigen constructs can be quite demanding on compiler memory, especially in newer (> 3.3.7) versions.

I've updated https://gitlab.com/tesch1/cppduals/issues/4 and merged changes into the master branch (which is currently building).

Regarding licensing, have changed everything to MPL-2 for simplicity's sake.

@danielskatz It would appear that whedon does not correctly use custom branches from gitlab when generating pdfs (or I did the syntax wrong above?)

If the paper PDF and Crossref deposit XML look good in openjournals/joss-papers#1087, then you can now move forward with accepting the submission by compiling again with the flag deposit=true e.g.

@tesch1 - you can see the DOI above (https://doi.org/10.21105/joss.01487). It's not quite working for me yet, which could be a backlog in registering new DOIs, or it could be due to a server in my location - Once it works, I will close this issue and we will be done.
