- reduction of sizeof(Block) for vector types
- variants of block() and fixedBlock() for vector blocks
- convenience methods start() and end() for vectors
- convenience method corner() for matrices
dimension. The advantage is that evaluating a dynamic-sized block in a fixed-size
matrix no longer causes a dynamic memory allocation. Other new thing:
IntAtRunTimeIfDynamic allows storing an integer at zero cost if it is known at
compile time.
1) Eigen2 co-installable with Eigen1 without conflict, without affecting programs including either.
2) #include<Eigen/Core> without the .h without conflict with the Core/ directory
3) Uniformize coding style of the CMakeLists.
with minimal code duplication. There now are only two (2)
const_cast remaining in the whole source code.
- eigen2 now fully allows copying a row-vector into a column-vector.
added a unit-test for that.
- split unit tests, improve docs, various improvements.
- make vectors use a separate loop unroller, so that copying a
row-vector into a col-vector is now possible
- add much more documentation
- misc improvements
const_cast. But I think that anyway trying to maintain const strictness in Eigen2 is not
worth the hassle.
Konstantin: so the code snippet I sent you won't work anymore, replace wrapArray with fromArray.

After huge thread on eigen mailing list, it appears that i'm the
only one in favor of prefix Ei. Everybody else prefers namespace
Eigen like we did in Eigen 1. So, revert.
Also add a macro USING_EIGEN_DATA_TYPES that application programmers
can use to automatically do "using"on the Matrix class and its
matrix/vector typedefs:
using Eigen::Matrix;
using Eigen::Matrix2d;
using Eigen::Vector2d;
... (the list of typedefs is really long).
thanks to the suffixes, the Vector typedefs aren't really polluting.

P.S. Danny, please skip this one :) I know you already reported the
namespace->prefix move, now that one would be too much noise :)
Introduce a notion of RowVector (typedef for Matriw with 1 row)
Make row() return a row vector instead of a "column vector"
Introduce operator[] to access elements of row/column vectors uniformly
Remove default arguments in operator(), these were for vectors, now use operator[] instead
1) Kill MatrixXpr class, instead let all class inherit a common EigenBase class
2) Kill MatrixBase/Matrix/Vector classes, instead introduce a single Matrix class,
a MatrixStorage class, and typedefs to emulate vectors
3) Huge code cleanup, remove large preprocessor macros, sloccount drop to ~750
down from 1100.
4) Introduce compile-time-known sizes
