v26.0.0

Breaking

• refactor!: TrackContainer/MultiTrajectory surfaces, jacobians, meas access (44c343b) (@paulgessinger)

• This changes the contract between TrackContainer, MultiTrajectory and their backends. Notably it

  • Adds dedicated methods for surface manipulation that are used by the backend:
    • referenceSurface_impl to get a reference surface by index. It returns a pointer, and a new method hasReferenceSurface on the proxies compares it to nullptr to check if a reference surface is set
    • setReferenceSurface_impl to set a reference surface
    • has_impl for both backend types is not expected to respond to referenceSurface anymore.
  • In MultiTrajectory, the backend is no longer expected to return an index referencing a jacobian, measurement or measurement covariance. Instead, the dedicated methods jacobian_impl, measurement_impl and measurementCovariance_impl are now called by the proxy with the state index directly, leaving the backend to implement index traversal. has_impl is not expected to respond to calibrated, calibratedCov, jacobian anymore.

v24.0.0

Breaking

• TrackContainer backends needs to implement these methods: (4d1a846) (@paulgessinger):
  • copyDynamicFrom_impl
  • ensureDynamicColumns_impl
• SSS Seeding: Store dynamic variables instead of constantly copying them (#1966) (bf5a3fc) (@CarloVarni)
• Seeding runs on const inputs (#1948) (6ba881e) (@CarloVarni)
• Store unsigned 64bit integer for projector in MTJ backend (#1958) (0b61727) (@paulgessinger)
• Rewrite Binned SP Group (#1919) (16ebb52) (@CarloVarni)
• MultiTrajectory API change (#1948) The SourceLink returned from uncalibratedSourceLink and getUncalibratedSourceLink is now a value. If you have a construct / access pattern like (58d7632) (@paulgessinger)

  const auto& sl = ts.getUncalibratedSourceLink().template get<MySourceLink>();

  you will now have a dangling reference. You'll need to change const auto& to auto to keep the SourceLink valid.
