Re: [Yade-users] Optimized collider needs testing

 

There was indeed a bug with clumps (fixed), but the thing I don't
understand is the branch did not contain the changes. Bazaar branches
are not quite user-friendly for commits/updates...
Klaus, you probably didn't try the good code (but then how did you spot
the bug? I'm lost...).
Could you send me a copy of the core/bound.hpp you downloaded, just to
be sure?
