10 February 2018
1. Introduction
---------------
This document briefly summarizes module by module the most important changes
made since the last release of GammaLib.
2. Public interface modifications
---------------------------------
The following classes have been added:
- none
The following classes have been removed:
- none
The following classes have been renamed:
- none
The following methods have been added:
- gammalib::atan2()
- gammalib::plaw_integral()
- GSkyDir::cos_dist()
- GCTAInstDir::theta()
- GCTAInstDir::phi()
- GCTABackground::rate_ebin()

- GCTABackground3D::rate_ebin()
The following methods have been removed:
- none
The following methods have been renamed:
- none
The arguments for the following methods have been changed:
- none
The return value of the following methods has been changed:
- none
3. Configuration
-----------------
None
4. Application module
---------------------
None
5. Base module
--------------
None
6. FITS I/O Interface
---------------------
None
7. Linear algebra module
------------------------
None
8. Model module
---------------
None
9. Numerics module
------------------
The gammalib::atan2() function was added to compute the arc tangens of a ratio
in radians (#2308).
The gammalib::plaw_integral() function was added to compute the area under a
power law between two boundaries (#2308).
10. Observation module
----------------------
None
11. Optimization module
-----------------------
None
12. Sky module
--------------
Add GSkyDir::cos_dist() method that computes the cosine of the angular distance
between two sky directions. Using this method avoids computation of the arc
cosine (#2309).
13. Support module
------------------
None
14. XML module
--------------
None
15. VO module
-------------
None
16. Xspec module
----------------
None
17. Test module
---------------
None
18. Multi-wavelength interface
------------------------------
None
19. Fermi-LAT interface
----------------------
None
20. CTA interface
-----------------
A GCTAInstDir::theta() and GCTAInstDir::phi() methods were added that return the
distance to the camera centre in radians and the azimuth angle, respectively (#2308).
A rate_ebin() method was added to the interface of the GCTABackground class and
implemented for the GCTABackgroundPerfTable and GCTABackground3D classes. The method
computes for a given instrument direction the background rate integrated over an
energy bin (#2308).
21. COMPTEL interface
---------------------
None
