Customized by CDC:
- support user Jacobian evaluation
Changes in lmfit-4.0, released 16jul13
- binary library renamed: lmmin -> lmfit
- API changes:
- lmcurve.h no longer depends on lmmin.h, but only on new lmstruct.h
- low-level API lmdif is removed (code integrated in lmmin)
- lmcurve_fit -> lmcurve
- new control parameter 'pivot' (default: pivoting is used, as before)
- new structure lm_princon_struct, generalizing printflags
- in consequence thereof, new parameter lists for lmcurve and lmmin
- code cleanup:
- ensure strict C90 compliance: no C++ comments; replace non-standard
struct assignment (reported by Elio Mazzocca, using LCC)
- revert malloc trick of release 3.4 (readability is more important)
- source code comment blocks moved around, to reduce duplications
- build scripts cleanup:
- demo programs are no longer installed to $bindir
- configure.ac: cleaned up, and inserted comments
- documentation:
- new web location: apps.jcns.fz-juelich.de/lmfit
- new entry page (dokuwiki) instead of man page
- man page split and largely rewritten: lmcurve(3), lmmin(3)
Changes in lmfit-3.5, released 3feb13
- changed overall license to FreeBSD to facilitate inclusion in Linux
distributions (request by M. Hroncok)
- directory doc renamed man
Changes in lmfit-3.4, released 21jan13
- only one malloc call to allocate all arrays (proposal by F. Polchow)
- liblmmin_la_LDFLAGS += -lm (required by Ubuntu, report by J. M. Agosta)
- there is now an alternative ruby binding, using inline instead of swig
(contribution by I. Drozdov)
- long message for degenerate case now suggests increasing epsilon
(suggestion by Nghia Ho)
Changes in lmfit-3.3, released 12sep12
- moved "int" declarations to top of lm_printout_std() and lmmin()
(required by Visual Studio 2005: bug report M. Beek)
- corrected typo 0.55 -> 0.5 (bug reports M. Kardas and D. Pescia)
- man pages now produced by make; finally got rid of dmake
- untabified code (hint by W. Pimenta)
Changes in lmfit-3.2, released 28mar10 (preview 27mar10):
- shared library is given correct version number (set in configure.ac)
- man page lmfit(3) is copied by dmake to lmmin(3) and lmcurve_fit(3)
Changes in lmfit-3.1, released 12mar10:
- debian directory not part of tgz distribution
- temporarily removed lmmin.3 (was symlink -> lmfit.3)
Changes in lmfit-3.0, released 2mar10 (preview 27feb10):
- for parameter close to zero, change step width for calculation of jabobian
- outer iteration counter starting at zero (C style)
- replace BUG by LMFIT_DEBUG_MESSAGES and .._MATRIX to allow control by -D
- remove redundant calculation by exchanging workspaces and lm_lmpar output
- eliminate unnecessary wa1 = -wa1 computation
- avoid passing wa3 to wa1, choose better names for work arrays in lm_par
- migrate documentation from brain-damaged asciidoc to pod
- rewrote interface documentation
- API changes:
-- eliminate lm_initialize_control, provide defaults for float and double
-- separate limits and status records
-- separate generic minimization and one-dimensional curve fitting
-- simplify the latter
- replace curve-fitting demo
- provide surface-fitting demo (correspondence M. Rudolphi)
- provide vector minimization demos
- test for fnorm<=LM_DWARF, renumbered info values 0, 10, 11
Changes in lmfit-2.6, released 29sep09:
- nfev incrementation even if printout=0 (bug report C. Tanner)
- correct t->tvec, y->yvec in man page (bug report C. Tanner)
Changes in lmfit-2.5, released 20sep09:
- malloc==NULL ? (suggestion R. Strickland)
- allow printout=NULL (suggestion J. Lodewyck)
- improve infmsg (correspondence B. McHoull)
- eliminate some static variables (p25, p5, p75, ..)
- eliminate function data types; they obscure more than they help
Changes in lmfit-2.4, released 27jul08:
- clearer file headers
- clearer licence (everything has ever been in the public domain)
- machine-dependent arithmetic constants from float.h (suggestion M. Bydder)

improved calculation of differences in lmmin, lines 415-417
- reverted comments in lmmin.c to pure C style
- improved documentation of interfaces
