*Add Eigen/StdVector header.
Including it #includes<vector> and "Core" and generates a partial
specialization of std::vector<T> for T=Eigen::Matrix<...>
that will work even with vectorizable fixed-size Eigen types
(working around a design issue in the c++ STL)
*Add unit-test

only used as fallback for now, needs benchmarking.
also notice that some malloc() impls do waste memory to keep track of alignment
and other stuff (check msdn's page on malloc).
* expand test_dynalloc to cover low level aligned alloc funcs. Remove the old
#ifdef EIGEN_VECTORIZE...
* rewrite the logic choosing an aligned alloc, some new stuff:
* malloc() already aligned on freebsd and windows x64 (plus apple already)
* _mm_malloc() used only if EIGEN_VECTORIZE
* posix_memalign: correct detection according to man page (not necessarily
linux specific), don't attempt to declare it if the platform didn't declare it
(there had to be a reason why it didn't declare it, right?)
ei_aligned_malloc now really behaves like a malloc
(untyped, doesn't call ctor)
ei_aligned_new is the typed variant calling ctor
EIGEN_MAKE_ALIGNED_OPERATOR_NEW now takes the class name as parameter
* the dashboard is there: http://my.cdash.org/index.php?project=Eigen
* now you can run the tests from the top build dir
and submit report like that (from the top build dir):
ctest -D Experimental
* todo:
- add some nighlty builds (I'll add a few on my computer)
- add valgrind memory checks, performances tests, compilation time tests, etc.
* extend unit tests
* add support for generic sum reduction and dot product
* optimize the cwise()* : this is a special case of CwiseBinaryOp where
we only have to process the coeffs which are not null for *both* matrices.
Perhaps there exist some other binary operations like that ?
(former solution still available and tested)
This plays much better with classes that already have base classes --
don't force the user to mess with multiple inheritance, which gave
much trouble with MSVC.
* Expand the unaligned assert dox page
* Minor fixes in the lazy evaluation dox page
