IT++ 3.99.3 released

Warning!
There is a bug in this release related to zdotu_ BLAS routine used in Vec::dot() method for complex vectors. It results in a segmentation fault when compiled with "-fomit-frame-pointer" optimisation flag. Bug-fix release 3.99.3.1 will be soon released.

IT++ 3.99.3 is the last development release of IT++ 3.99.x series. The upcoming 4.0.0 stable release will be based on this version after a certain stabilisation period. Therefore we encourage everyone to switch to this version and report any problems and bugs on the IT++ Help forum. The interface of this release should be compatible with the next 4.0.x stable releases.

This release provides a set of new features, e.g.: efficient Sort class implementation with four different algorithms, Matlab's repmat() function for vectors and matrices, and support for reading and writing bool variables in it_file class. The dependency on external CBLAS library has been removed (a Fortran BLAS interface is used instead). Besides, a lot of performance-related improvements have been done in Vec and Mat classes.

A detailed summary of new features, modifications and bug-fixes is included in the release notes:
