Phil,

I think we wanted to maintain the existence of setEntry/getDataRef API of the RealMatrixImpl without having it in the RealMatrix Interface. At least until we come up with a strategy for mutability that made more sense then these methods. This last change removed it from both.

Michael,

We are attempting to make the Implementation immutable so that methods calls such as getColumnMatrix(i) and getSubMatrix(xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax) will be able to return submatrice objects of the existing data without duplicating/copying the internal datastore to do so, this will provide efficient means to access the stored values without performing costly array copies on what may be very large double[][]'s or copying objects which may not be in an []. So basically, what we are trying to avoid is that if I do the following

Matrix a = ...
Matrix b = a.getColumnMatrix(x);

that if (a) is mutable, then doing something like a.setEntry(x,y,d) will also cause (b) to change, something we should try to avoid, we are trying to work with these more as mathematical objects and not necessarily as "Collection objects".

If you require such mutability, could you take a moment and show an example of the usage you require it for?

-thanks,
Mark Diggory

Sorry to be replying to a cvs commit message, but I think perhaps this is
taking this idea of immutability too far -- a matrix data structure isn't
very useful if you can't even modify the entries.

Wouldn't the pattern used in the Collections interfaces for modifiers be
more reasonable here?

interface RealMatrix
{
  ...

  /**
   * Sets the entry in the specified row and column to the specified
   * value (optional operation).
   *
   * ...
   * @throws UnsupportedOperationException if the <code>setEntry<code>
   *    operation is not supported by this real matrix
   */
  void setEntry(int row, int column, double value)
    ...;
}


I also wanted to mention that I feel that this interface and its implementation seem too closely intertwined with double arrays, as if clients of the API are going to be moving back and forth between the two data representations regularly.

With the Collections interfaces, if I want a List, I'm going to use
one, not go back and forth between Lists and arrays.  Similarly, if I want
to use a RealMatrix, I'd like to use one, not go back and forth between it
and 1D and 2D double arrays.
