math operations #7
Description
We have integrated gov.llnl.math into jpype as a customizer which allows use of numpy like operations for java classes. This greatly increases run speed when performing prototyping and testing as we can perform math without ever moving the arrays from the java jvm. Unfortunately, it will take heavy lifting to get this modification out of the laboratory IP release system. Also the jpype does not currently include an ant build to create a org.jpype jar which would be able to hold the required enhancement hooks. The downside is the existing customizer may under certain situations create an unenhanced array class which leads to a method error. Fortunately, this is sufficiently rare we can work around easily by reordering calls.
