Hello,

i want to calculate some electromagnetic finite element formulations, where some of the constants, like permeability, are complex numbers. As i found no support for complex numbers, my first intention was to use the GenericMatrix interface, but the get, set and add methods in the interface are all using double values.  So my question: Is it possible to use complex matrices and numbers with the assembler and solver classes or are they restricted to real matrices? Or am i understanding something completely wrong?

Regards and thanks in advance,
Alex
