Detailed Description

Common line search utilites for printing line search information to the screen.

All line searches should print output results in a similar format. This utility provides common output routines.

Member Function Documentation

void NOX::LineSearch::Utils::Printing::printStep	(	int	n,
		double	step,
		double	oldf,
		double	newf,
		const std::string	s = "",
		bool	unscaleF = true
	)		const

Print out step information for the inner iterations of a line search algorithm.

Example of output from the inner iterations of a Polynomial line search:

************************************************************************
-- Polynomial Line Search --
  1: step = 1.000e+00 oldf = 2.403e+00 newf = 1.076e+03
  2: step = 1.000e-01 oldf = 2.403e+00 newf = 4.440e+00
  3: step = 1.000e-02 oldf = 2.403e+00 newf = 2.394e+00 (STEP ACCEPTED!)
************************************************************************

\param unscaleF - If this is true (the default), than the values
printed are \form#173 and \form#174@_fakenl. This is to accomodate the standard merit function, \form#175@_fakenl.
