Release notes for 2025 R2​

ABI change for C++ API on linux​

The C++ version of the participant library is now compiled with ABI=1 on linux. The compiler flag -D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0 is no longer required. See the migration notes for more details.

Attributes​

Attributes, both at the variable and participant level, may now be string-valued. This is in addition to the existing real and integer attributes.

Debugging​

Improvements were made to debugging output of regions and variables when using the python APIs. More information is provided when printing the objects.

Explicit to/from Implicit participant data transfer behavior​

Handling of data transfers between implicit and explicit participants has been improved. Data from explicit participants are now available in an implicit participant prior to entering the iteration loop.

Mapping is now possible between two or more applications​

It is now possible to connect multiple independent applications and perform mapping between them using SCP library. These applications can be distributed parallel applications. This is currently only available via C++ or Python interfaces.

See Steps to perform mapping for more information.

Data transfer is now possible between two or more applications​

It is now possible to transfer some basic data structures (scalar, vector, and integer arrays) between multiple independent applications, even if they are distributed parallel applications. This is currently only available via C++ or Python interfaces.

See Steps to perform parallel data transfers for more information.

Release notes for 2025 R1​

There are no API-breaking changes when updating from version 24.2 to version 25.1.

Attributes​

Attributes can now be added to participant as well as to variables.

Attributes can now be marked as "modifiable", which determines whether the attribute value can be updated during the coupled analysis setup.

Release notes for 2024 R2​

New APIs for create system coupling SetupInfo​

C++​

The following new constructor has been added for creating sysc::SetupInfo with specifying the time integration method for the participant:

  SetupInfo(
    enum AnalysisType analysisType,
    bool restartsSupported,
    enum Dimension dimension,
    enum TimeIntegration timeIntegration);

C​

A helper function has been added for creating SyscSetupInfo with specifying the time integration method for the participant:

SyscSetupInfo syscGetSetupInfoARDT(
  enum SyscAnalysisType analysisType,
  int restartsSupported,
  enum SyscDimension dimension,
  enum SyscTimeIntegration timeIntegration);

Fortran​

A helper function has been added for creating SyscSetupInfo with specifying the time integration method for the participant:

function syscGetSetupInfoF_ARDT(analysisType, &
  restartsSupported, dimension, timeIntegration) result(ret)

Python​

A new constructor has been added for sysc.SetupInfo with specifying the time integration method for the participant:

pySetupInfo=sysc.SetupInfo(sysc.Steady, False, sysc.Dimension_D2, sysc.TimeIntegration_Implicit)

Release notes for 2024 R1​

2D vector APIs​

This change applies to C++, C, Fortran, and Python APIs.

C++​

sysc::OutputVectorData and sysc::InputVectorData supports constructing both compact and split 2D vector data.

For example, the following new constructor function can used to create compact 2D vector data by passing sysc::Dimension::D2 to the dimension parameter.

sysc::OutputVectorData (const double* data, std::size_t size, Dimension dimension);
sysc::InputVectorData (double* data, std::size_t size, Dimension dimension);

The following new constructor function has been added to create split 2D vector data, accepting two data pointers or arrays.

sysc::OutputVectorData (const double* data1, const double* data2);
sysc::InputVectorData (double* data1, double* data2);

Note for sysc::OutputComplexVector and sysc::InputComplexVectorData, only 2D compact complex and compact vector formats are supported for now, and the new constructor below has been added to create 2D complex vector data by passing sysc::Dimension::D2 to the dimension parameter.

OutputComplexVectorData(const double* dataComplex, std::size_t size, Dimension dimension);
InputComplexVectorData(double* dataComplex, std::size_t size, Dimension dimension);

C​

For C, helper functions have been added for creating 2D vector data.

For compact 2D vector data (pass SyscD2 to dimension):

SyscOutputVectorData syscGetOutputVectorDataCompactDoubleDim(
  const double *const data,
  size_t dataSize,
  enum SyscDimension dimension);

For split 2D vector data:

SyscOutputVectorData syscGetOutput2DVectorDataSplitDouble(
  const double *const data0,
  const double *const data1,
  size_t dataSize);

For 2D compact complex and compact vector data (pass SyscD2 to dimension):

SyscInputComplexVectorData syscGetInputCompactComplexCompactVectorDataDoubleDim(
  double *const data,
  size_t dataSize,
  enum SyscDimension dimension);

Fortran​

For fortran, helper functions have been added for creating 2D vector data.

For compact 2D vector data (pass SyscD2 to dimension):

function syscGetOutputVectorDataCompactDimF(&
    data, dataSize, dimension) result (ret)

For split 2D vector data:

function syscGetOutput2DVectorDataSplitF(&
    data0, data1, dataSize) result (ret)

For 2D compact complex and compact vector data (pass SyscD2 to dimension):

function syscGetOutputCompactComplexCompactVectorDataDimF(&
    data, dataSize, dimension) result (ret)

Python​

For python, new constructors have been added for creating 2D vector data.

For compact 2D vector data:

py2DVector=sysc.OutputVectorData(data0=data,dimension=sysc.Dimension_D2)

For split 2D vector data:

py2DVector=sysc.OutputVectorData(data0=data0, data1=data1)

For 2D compact complex and compact vector data:

py2DComplexVector=sysc.OutputComplexVectorData(data1=complexData,dimension=sysc.Dimension_D2)

New APIs for create system coupling SetupInfo​

C++​

The following new constructor has been added for creating sysc::SetupInfo with specifying participant dimension:

  SetupInfo(
    enum AnalysisType analysisType,
    bool restartsSupported,
    enum Dimension dimension);

C​

A helper function has been added for creating SyscSetupInfo with specifying participant dimension:

SyscSetupInfo syscGetSetupInfoARD(
  enum SyscAnalysisType analysisType,
  int restartsSupported,
  enum SyscDimension dimension);

Fortran​

A helper function has been added for creating SyscSetupInfo with specifying participant dimension:

function syscGetSetupInfoF_ARD(analysisType, &
  restartsSupported, dimension) result(ret)

Python​

A new constructor has been added for sysc.SetupInfo with specifying participant dimension:

pySetupInfo=sysc.SetupInfo(sysc.Steady,False,sysc.Dimension_D2)
