[Bug 1475844] Re: Swap problem in InteractionLoop

 

My next questions (result of not knowing the code well enough):
- is asssert necessary in [1]?
- why is IPhysDispatcher defined as autosymmetric (default template argument) [3]?

[1] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~yade-pkg/yade/git-trunk/view/head:/pkg/common/InteractionLoop.cpp#L116
[3] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~yade-pkg/yade/git-trunk/view/head:/pkg/common/Dispatching.hpp#L113

** Description changed:

- When you use two different shapes and two different materials, it might
- happen that IntreactionLoop ends with error [1]. It is because the
- interaction might be swapped in IGeom stage (ok) and in IPhys stage (see
+ When you use two different materials, it might happen that
+ IntreactionLoop ends with error [1]. It is because of IPhys stage (see
  also the comment in [1], but in reality Ip2 can by non-symmetric).
  
  Possible solutions:
- 1) define both Ip2_Mat1_Mat2 and Ip2_Mat2_Mat1
- 2) replace assert [1] (something like   if (swap) { I->functorCase.phys=physDispatcher->getFunctor2D(b2->material,b1->material,swap); swap=false })
+ 1) define both Ip2_Mat1_Mat2 and Ip2_Mat2_Mat1 (according to [2] maybe does not work..)
+ 2) replace assert [1] (something like   if (swap) { I->functorCase.phys=physDispatcher->getFunctor2D(b2->material,b1->material,swap); swap=false }). Is the assert necessary at all?
  3) make option 1) somehow automatic (using some macro?)
  
  Pros and cons:
  1) would mess the source code and documentation a bit, but otherwise I think it is ok
  2) would it have some side effects? Is it ok for Law2 stage? etc etc?
  3) maybe the best option if the solution is reasonable
