By default, the library compiles versions of the data statically. These can be found in data/*.h and used if no data files are found. > with up-to-date files like elements.txt isotopes.txt etc and use this like a > default solution. What is the strong reason to have it as separate file, but > not inside the library? If there are updates to the data files, they can be easily edited - even by an end-user. But hard-coded into the library data requires re-compiling and re-installation. For most users, the data files are very useful. -Geoff ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Attend Shape: An AT&T Tech Expo July 15-16.
