Unreleased


v31r0 - 2019-02-11
The main reason for this major release is to the change of the Algorithm base
class with a re-entrant execute method (#47, !703). For backward compatibility the
base class for algorithms is Gaudi::Algorithm, while the name Algorithm in
the top level namespace is used for a backward compatible implementation. This
change also required a backward incompatible change in the IAlgorithm
interface, so some code may require adaptation.
We also took the occasion to update the version of clang-format we use from
3.9 to 7, and to switch Python formatting from autopep8 to yapf (!788).
Because of the differences (fixes and new features) in the versions of
clang-format, we also updated the style rules.
As of this version, Gaudi requires C++17 compatible compiler.
C++14 compatibility is not required in merge requests, nor guaranteed on the
master branch.
On top of that, we have the usual collection of minor fixes and improvements.
